Welcome to
Hello! I'm Alex and I'm a professional guitar teacher based in Swansea. I offer high quality guitar lessons to learners of all ages in a wide range of styles and genres.
I believe a good guitar player should be able to enjoy and play all styles. With that in mind, I can teach a wide array of genres and styles meaning no matter who your favorite artists are, together we can study and work through your favorite songs by the artists that you love the most.
I teach a wide range of styles in both acoustic and electric guitar. Let me know your preference when getting in touch & I will make a lesson plan that suits your needs as a player. I appreciate that we all love and want different things from music so I will always take the time to get to know you as an individual to provide the best targeted lesson plans possible.

I welcome any students to take lessons with me and I usually teach learners from the age of 8+. I have a lot of experience in teaching young learners as well as older learners too. I believe that music should be for everyone and I believe with the right training an guidance, playing an instrument is something that anybody can do.
I always like to ensure my lessons are of the relaxed, fun and of the highest quality possible. I'm currently a RGT (Registry of Guitar Tutors) Certified teacher which ensures my lessons are always hitting that top level of tuition quality. I'll always make sure to cover a wide range of music topics and styles to ensure you grow and develop as an all round musician.
Lessons are pay-as-you-go, weekly, fortnightly or as suits you.
I'm able to teach students of all ability levels. I offer my services to both beginner and advanced students in a wide range of styles.
I am an experienced self employed musician currently working with one of U.K’s most exciting function bands. With over 15 years experience as a guitarist and over 10 years experience in the music industry, I take pride in offering very detailed and productive lessons in both technique and theory.
In addition to this to my real world performing experience, I also have over 8 years experience teaching guitar to all age groups on a one to on basis as well as group lessons. In 2013 I studied at the Atrium in Cardiff, where I graduated with a BSc (Hons) award in Music and Sound Technology.
This provided me with a mountain of useful knowledge into not only recording engineering and audio electronics but also into songwriting, production and music theory side of things too. Previous to studying music academically, I have also played a part in editing, mixing, engineering and producing many albums for many different bands from different genres.
I've worked with students of all ages and abilities, all the way from total beginners right up to seasoned guitarists. I understand that as musicians we all want different things from music so I focus on these interests and builds a lesson plan to suit you as an individual.
One of my main focuses is to ensure that I keep the lessons as fun and relaxed as possible. I feel students will make much faster progress if they enjoy the lessons and feel as though they are in a relaxed and comfortable environment. I will always keep your musical tastes and preferences in mind when creating your lesson plan to try and help keep you motivated and driven for the lessons.
Most of my students tend to take a one hour lesson with me each week. I find this is the best way to take lessons to ensure that steady and consistent progress is made. If you have any more questions about where I take my lessons please send me an email and I'd be more than happy to go through it with you.
