I enjoy finding out the challenges that you as a student face and working with you to achieve your goals. I teach all Trinity Classical Guitar Grades, RSL classical, rock and pop, acoustic and also tutor for GCSE and A Level Music. I teach both online (Zoom/Skype) and from my home studio in the Bromley/Orpington area of SE London.

“James is a great guitar tutor who is patient, knowledgable and very skilled. He has helped me push my guitar playing forward when I got to place where I was struggling to improve by giving me practical knowledge of the fretboard and useful exercises to put the theory into practice. I thoroughly recommend.” A.R

“I started studying with James during my time at Brunel University where he taught lessons for the music programmes guitarists. His knowledge of the instrument and its genres are second to none and the lessons are inspiring, fun and filled with incredible insight from one of the UK’s finest musicians. I continue to have the occasional lesson with James when I need to be challenged!” J.C
