About

About	My name is Mark and I am a professional guitar teacher based here in Plymouth helping students of all abilities develop their guitar playing ability. I have a depth of experience having been playing & teaching guitar professionally for over 18 years. I teach lots of different styles; covering everything from Pop, Rock, Blues, Indie, Modern Fingerstyle, Classical and I am more than happy to teach other genres/styles outside of these too. For those students who are interested, I can take you through Grade based syllabuses (Rockschool, RGT, Trinity), though this is certainly not compulsory as many of my guitar students simply learn for their own pleasure. In addition, I can also offer help with GCSE/A-Level Music courses/coursework if needed, enabling me to provide lessons for students across the board – from those who wish to pursue music on an academic and professional level to those simply looking to play along with the music that they are passionate about.
