Testimonials

There may be many "guitar teachers" but there’s only one that I’d ever recommend. Mark taught my son Andy from the first note he played and guided him to a distinction at Grade 8. He is a gifted teacher, a musical mentor, role model and his exceptional skills as a musician have become the benchmark for excellence.
Anne Gould : Parent

Mark is an exceptionally patient and knowledgeable tutor who is able to teach a very broad range of different styles of music. He helped me achieve very high results with my RGT grades (98%) and throughout the 14 years I’ve known him he has been an invaluable source of help with everything from original compositions and choosing equipment, to transposing difficult pieces.
Chris Burness : Former Pupil

Not only is Mark a brilliant teacher, he's also an inspiring guitarist with a wide-ranging repertoire. Couldn't be happier after 11 years of lessons with him!
Edward Higgins : Pupil: 2005 - 2016

The decision to learn to play the guitar at c 40 years of age, from a guy with no rhythm or understanding of music, was a big ask for a music teacher. Mark has been teaching me for the last 3/4 years, and has always taught me music I wanted to learn, thereby keeping me interested and wanting to master the next tune. I have enjoyed every lesson, and find his style of tuition relaxed and encouraging. Besides which he is a fabulous musician!
Pete Deer : Pupil

Mark has taught both my son guitar and now my daughter bass guitar! I can highly recommend him as a friendly and professional teacher.
