Pete Hincks

For as long as I can remember, everything in my life has been based around music. I have a wide range of experience in everything from playing to performing and taking music based exams. My aim is always to pass this experience onto you.

When I go back and remember how I learnt guitar, I know I did it all wrong. All I wanted to do was play something that sounded like the record. First of all, at the age of 5, I attended classical guitar lessons. I remember playing songs like Bobby Shaftoe (I completely understand if you say “What? I’ve never heard of him” cause nor had I.), which sounded nothing like Jimi Hendrix or the Eagles, that my uncle was playing. I want to make sure my students learn the music they love and in the correct way.

My goal is to give my students the right guidance at the right time, so as to keep the students enjoying playing, positively motivated and constantly improving. I have achieved this by tailoring the students’ developments by targeting relevant pieces of music they want to play.
