Teaching
The teaching is always undertaken on a one-to-one basis in pleasant and quiet surroundings with lesson-length options of half-hour, forty-five minutes or one-hour durations depending on the student's age and level of ability.
A free introductory lesson and consultation is offered to all prospective students.
In addition to his private practice, John is visiting tutor at a number of educational establishments throughout the East Midlands.
John's teaching is accredited by the following organizations: The Incorporated Society of Musicians, The Music Masters and Mistresses Association, The European Guitar Teachers Association and The Registry of Guitar Tutors.
Impartial advice and assistance is available with regards to the purchase of guitars and other associated accessories as well as music.
Philosophy
John aims to foster a genuine sense of enjoyment from playing the guitar and that the learning experience should be fun. At the same time, pupils are encouraged to work to clearly defined goals.
Lessons are tailored to suit the specific needs of each pupil and where appropriate, students are prepared for graded practical music examinations.
