I've been playing guitar for 33 years and teaching for over a decade. Most of my students are bedroom players who possess "pockets" of knowledge but often haven't figured out how to string them together into a cohesive and accessible way to apply to their guitar playing.
Many are also overwhelmed with the amount of information out there: they don't where to start or what to prioritise, I help with that.
I know what it's like to be a self-taught guitarist because I am one: stuff can get confusing and there's nobody to ask. Often some of the more academic guitar teachers make it sound more complicated than it is. I always keep this in mind when teaching, I avoid jargon and abstract music theory, because if I explain it clearly and you just play it, you'll understand it.
Originally from the UK, I now live in New Zealand. I spent 9 years as a gigging musician in London supporting acts like Toploader (Dancing in the Moonlight) and Reef (Place Your Hands) I've toured in bands to Europe and the United States and right now, I play in a Jimi Hendrix Tribute Show.
