I am a professional guitar player and teacher who teaches both adults and children in the Northamptonshire area. I really believe that anyone can learn to play the guitar & I would love to show you and help you improve all aspects of your playing.
Learn to play chords and how they fit together in your favourite songs.
I am professional guitarist based in Northamptonshire, UK.
Since first picking up the guitar aged 8. I fell in love with the instrument and have undertaken many years of musical training. This included working through the Rockschool grade syllabus, GCSE Music, a Level 3 BTEC National Extended Diploma in Music performance and a First Class BA Honours Degree in Popular Music.
I have taught and performed professionally since the age of 18. In that time I have toured with artists accross the UK and Europe, featured on songs and albums as a studio guitarist and taught hundreds of students to play the guitar.
I have been fortunate to have studied guitar and record production under some of the most inspiring figures in the music buisiness such as Joel Hoesktra (Whitesnake, Cher, Rock Of Ages) Elliott Randall (Steely Dan, Doobie Brothers, John Lennon) and Tony Platt (ACDC, Bob Marely, Paul McCartney). I am often delighted to pass on the knowledge and techniques I have learned from these mentors to my own students on their musical journeys.
Learn how to control bends, hammer on and pull offs, scales or study the theory behind music.
I am a specialist in teaching complete beginner students of ages 8+ to 80 (and beyond) the electric and acoustic guitar. I understand what it takes to learn and what can make learning easy, I have taught many beginner students during my time as a guitar teacher - as well as those individuals who are revisiting playing the guitar after several years away - helping them learn through the music that they are passionate about.
I have had experience with working with more advanced guitarists on how to develop their music theory knowledge, play more interesting lead solos or simply get them inspired and out of a rut they may be stuck in.
I like to create a lesson plan tailored to my individual student's goals and learning needs. Together we can create a plan designed for you to progress while learning the music you love.

My lessons cost £30 per hour session including travel. I also offer one hour and half hour lessons via Skype for a discounted price.
I am actually a mobile teacher, this means I travel to the location of my students to take lessons. This means you don't have to worry about travel and can learn the guitar from the comfort of your own home.
I specialise in teaching all students from the age of 8 to 80 (and beyond).
I recommend taking lessons weekly to all of my students for maximum progress in a shorter space of time, however I am happy to offer lessons fortnightly.
That is no problem at all, just contact me as soon as you can to let me know, this enables me to offer that time slot to another student. Do note that Guitar Lessons Northampton operates a 48-hour cancellation policy, whereby, if a lesson is cancelled within 48 hours of the start date it will be charged at £10 no exceptions.
