I am an experienced guitar tutor teaching lessons face-to-face and online. I also cater to groups. I have been a musician for over 20 years and have been teaching guitar for over 10 years, giving me a vast range of knowledge, teaching methodologies and learning resources. For older beginners and adults, I offer fun and information-rich lessons on what the guitar is and how to play it, along with how to get the most from your practice time. What can be seen as an insurmountable task is broken down into easy-to-follow steps grounded in whichever genre you're interested in exploring. On both electric or acoustic we'll cover the fundamentals of good playing technique, how to teach yourself songs, chord shapes and common scales, as well as rhythm and timekeeping. For those looking for UCAS points, Duke of Edinburgh award Skill, learning for fun or to complete grades, I will equip you with a wide understanding of music and the instrument leading towards creative self-expression. Here are some of my testimonials from upper-Secondary school and adult students: "A very friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating guy, knows how to play AND teach to a high standard and has been a godsend for me with my physical medical issues. Thanks ,Ricardo! See you for the next one mate!" Ray "Learning guitar with Ricardo has been a great experience and he is an amazing teacher. He is very patient and kind. I have really enjoyed learning songs of my choosing and how he gives me specific and personalised technical exercises to target grey areas in my playing. He is very supportive and has helped me improve massively whilst still allowing me the [sic] enjoy playing the guitar." Scarlett "Ricardo is a great guitar tutor and lots of fun! He's made lots of effort to adapt lessons to my level/ interests and has helped me with achieving my personal guitar goals. He's also very knowledgeable and always happy to answer any questions I have. I've very much enjoyed our lessons together so far. If you're looking for a tutor who's supportive, passionate about music, and easy to get on with, Ricardo's your guy!" Vikka

It might be easy to find an average guitar teacher, but genuine insight is much harder to come by - over the years, I've seen it all, and I want to use my experience to help you! ABOUT ME I am a friendly, solid, inspiring, patient, real-world music teacher, with over a decade's experience as a working, touring, studying, writing, teaching, musician! APPROACH Creating a nice atmosphere is really important to me. I'd love to know more about your goals and what excites you - your dreams might be as big as building a career in music, or as small as being able to perform a few songs to no-one but yourself and your cat. Anything and everything in between is totally valid and worth exploring! THINGS I CAN HELP WITH - How to get the most from music, whether that be through following a grade system, or just learning how to play the music you love. - Getting to that "next level" of guitar playing, wherever you are at the moment - Organising the fretboard, rhythm, inspiration, what to practice (at any level) - Providing helpful real-world context for the things you might be learning at school/college/university/YouTube - Songwriting/Arranging/Production, from very first steps to advanced concepts - Blocks/worries you might have about any aspect of music, or a kind of music coaching role (I'm not a licensed therapist but I'm here for it!) FIRST LESSON This would be an introductory session, where we get a feel for each other and what your aims are. By having a chat, I find that "what we should work on" flows pretty naturally from this, and we'd be able to set out a rough syllabus of what we would work on for the next while. FURTHER INFO/EXPERIENCE - Professional musician for over a decade, most notably touring as a guitarist with US Artists Theo Katzman and May Erlewine, as well as a Fleetwood Mac tribute show. - Taught 1-on-1 and ensemble lessons both privately and in schools, with a wiiiiide range of ability levels. - I produce and release my own original music with 17k monthly listeners. - Have worked as a session guitarist on a huge variety of genres (I can help you with pretty much any kind of music you can think of, but I'll be open and upfront with you if I feel my expertise doesn't match what you want. I'll be sorry to disappoint you that my, say, Bulgarian Folk knowledge isn't too hot...) - Have composed/arranged music for national TV ad campaigns (TUI, Redbull and Vodafone IE)

Guitar lessons in South East London. Learn how to play guitar, write songs, pass grades, or learn music theory. (Peckham)
Lou
Highly recommended! It was really nice to receive a message from Lou regarding our search for guitar lessons! Due to corona and a closed school, my 13 year old had more time to play guitar and she wanted to learn more about composition/scales. How cool that for online lessons, distance is no obstacle (we live in Luxembourg). We highly recommend Lou's enthusiastic and professional lessons!

Paolo
I shared a Cubase project with Paolo and he provided very specific feedback and suggestions on my mix that I'm sure will improve the quality of my music production and my confidence in my sound. I'm looking forward to my next lesson.

I had a valuable lesson with chris. I have been playing for 4 years. He was very knowledgable in the areas of composition I was interested in and was able to identify how I should improve.
