Update – please note that i’m not currently taking on more students (April 2025)
Hey, I’m Matt and I offer one-to-one guitar lessons in Stoke-on-Trent and North Staffordshire.
I’m an experienced guitarist with teaching experience and my excellent value lessons offer the perfect place to start for beginners and improvers.
I can also teach beginner to intermediate bass guitar.
What I’m offering:
- Learn your favourite songs
- Gain confidence with strumming and timing
- Go through the grades and get UCAS points (with Rockschool, Trinity, ABRSM)
- Change chords effortlessly
- Understand the principles of music theory
- Flexible approach to suit you
- All styles taught
I offer lessons both in-person and online and I’m happy to travel. I have a teaching space at my home which is in Cliffe Vale Stoke-on-Trent (2 minutes from the A500) and I have all of the equipment necessary.
I’m an experienced guitarist and have performed in covers and original bands and have recorded my own material. I am very familiar with the RSL Rock School and Trinity syllabuses which I use to help structure my lessons.
I realise that every student has their own aspirations and goals. If you’re aiming to take a more academic route and learn grades or perhaps you wish to take a more laid back approach and simply want to develop your skills and make music – I will adapt my lessons to your needs! I can accommodate all ages and abilities and hold a valid enhanced DBS check.
Music Qualifications & Achievements:
- I’m currently in the process of taking the electric guitar grades with RSL Rockschool.
- I perform in multiple established professional bands including Arctic Stereo Killers and Harmonic Fall duo.
- I co-founded an alt-country band ‘The Black Widows’ that played all over the UK and made two albums.
