I am a fully qualified guitar teacher, specialising in classical technique. This technique is used to  play an exceptionally wide variety of music, encompassing styles as diverse as Baroque, South American, Spanish, Folk, Blues, Jazz, Contemporary and others. I am based in Northwood, Middx.

I studied guitar and piano at school and beyond, and now enjoy teaching both instruments, whilst specialising in guitar. I have been fortunate to study with the following guitarists:

• Kevin Gallagher - winner of the Tarrega International Guitar Competition 1997; Guitar Foundation of America 1993.
  
• Johannes Moller - winner of the Guitar Foundation of America International Guitar Competition 2010.
  
• Barry Mason - international performer and owner of the Spanish/London Guitar Centre London.
• Lee Sollory - teacher at Trinity College of Music and examiner for Trinity Guildhall.

I am a registered tutor with The Registry of Guitar Tutors and my Tutor Registration No. is: PR2840.

I teach students from age 6+ and combine a friendly, easygoing approach whilst also ensuring good progress is made in relation to each student's ability. I believe that a solid technique opens the doors to a lifetime's enjoyment of making music and I therefore ensure that each student understands and develops the techniques required to play the guitar well.

Lessons for children focus on learning to play whilst having fun, and they are structured to ensure that all aspects of musicianship are explored and developed. We play a wide range of music, including familiar tunes and songs, often playing duets together to develop a well-rounded musical ability.

I am fully qualified to teach the Graded Examination Syllabus and encourage all my students to progress through the Grades; however, I am just as happy to teach those who do not wish to do so.

Students come from many areas of London including Northwood, Ruislip, Watford, Rickmansworth, Harrow, Pinner, Hillingdon & Hertfordshire.

I hold the ALCM (Associate of the London College of Music) Diploma in Teaching Classical Guitar. This qualification thoroughly assessed my ability as a guitar teacher to an internationally recognised professional standard.
