Welcome to
I'm Lewis, a professional guitar teacher based in Aberdeen. I offer high-quality guitar lessons in the Aberdeen area. My lessons are built around the musical styles and genres that you like to listen to in your spare time. Learning an instrument can be hard and that's why I like to take the time to make sure my students are learning properly and in a direction they enjoy.
My lessons are driven by the music you love - I teach everything from Ed Sheeran to Metallica covering all styles and teach both electric and acoustic guitar. I like for my students to make sure they let me know the music that they enjoy so I can build a learning direction and lesson plan around that.
I pride myself on making sure my lessons are enjoyable for all of my students. Together we will create a lesson plan that suits your needs whilst making sure you get the most out of your lessons. If you ever have any questions about guitar I will always try my best to make sure I give you detailed answers that are easy to understand.

I like to create a lesson plan tailored to the student, focused on their individual goals and help them enjoy learning their favourite music while progressing rapidly on the guitar. I've always found that this is the best way to really improve as a skilled guitar player and also as a beginner. Learning familiar music and songs is the key to positive learning.
I believe everyone should be able to experience the pleasure of playing a musical instrument. This is why I offer lessons to students of all ages and abilities. However I would recommend waiting until age 6 to begin playing the guitar. I will make sure your lessons cover everything from theory to understanding without making sure we focus on your technique.
Lessons are pay-as-you-go, weekly, fortnightly or as suits you.
Whether you are a complete beginner or already an experienced guitar player get in touch and start the journey of learning and improving your skills.
Learn all the basic skills to play the guitar from open chords to famous riffs
I’m Lewis, a musician who has been performing and teaching in the Aberdeen area for the past 17 years.
While at college I taught at Sound Ideas and later began piano teaching privately. Throughout this time I have been very active in the music scene, and so in lessons, there is an emphasis on practicality. This includes music theory.
I can teach both electric and acoustic guitar in a wide range of styles. Please make sure to let me know what direction you want to learn in when getting in contact.
Helping students to push on from intermediate players to advanced guitarists
I teach students from the age of 6 years old upwards, helping all abilities of guitarists develop their playing through learning the songs that they are interested in.
My guitar lessons are designed to ensure that you progress at the fastest possible speed when learning the guitar. I carefully build a course of individually tailored guitar lessons, based around the music you are interested in.
Whatever your preferred style of music we will play it in our lessons, learning all the techniques of the guitar through playing the bands you enjoy listening to. I have many years teaching experience, helping beginners upwards to progress on the guitar.
Need advice about your first guitar? I would be happy to help.

I currently take the majority of my lessons from my specialised home teaching space on Hamilton Place, Aberdeen, AB15 4AX, UK. This is a relaxing environment as it contains all the resources we need for fantastic guitar lessons.
I offer lessons to students of all ages and abilities. However I would recommend waiting until age 6 to begin playing the guitar.
That is absolutely up to you. The majority of my students have guitar lessons on a weekly basis with a few taking them fortnightly.
