"Having tried learning guitar off and on for years, I took lessons with Tolek and improved dramatically. He was very patient with me and tried to make the lessons work around my busy schedule. He went out of his way to find songs that I would enjoy playing and taught relevant music theory too, teaching me how to learn songs on my own. He was very encouraging and I ended up easily playing things I didn't even think were at my level. I only stopped going to his lessons because I moved away from the area, but I learnt loads."

"Having only ever self taught myself guitar I was getting easily distracted and little bored. I have been for a couple lessons with Tolek and already feel improvement especially with my right hand. He is very patient and his teaching style has made feel relaxed and less nervous. He always has a smiling face and a positive attitude. The basics he has taught me I have never seen on any online lessons and this has helped me understand more about the instrument I’m playing. Having never payed any attention to the theory side Tolek has slowly introduced me to this and broke it down in an way that is easily understood. To say he knows his stuff in both theory and practical would be an understatement. So in short professional, friendly, patient and also very fun. I’m having a great time learning from Tolek. I only wish I had found him earlier."
