All these lessons are developed from personal experience, rather than from text books, and are given on a one to one, in person or distance via Skype, and can be arranged for group tuition up to a maximum of six people.
Classes are designed for the level of the student's skills and interests and incorporate music theory where appropriate, correct technique and exercises to develop dexterity. Each lesson is designed to enable the student to gain confidence in applying the learning to live situations to enable them to confidently play with others in a band or to jam along for fun. A good understanding of how to use effects, microphones and amplifiers will be covered if required. I also offer lessons on studio recording, both midi and audio using Steinberg's Cubase and WaveLab.
