About the lesson
- All Levels
- English
All languages in which the lesson is available :
English
I can help you if you’re looking to learn new techniques, want to learn a specific style or technique, are stuck in a rut with your playing or just want to enjoy playing and learning!
I’m currently taking on beginner, improver and intermediate 5-string banjo players aged 12 to adult. I specialise in folk/bluegrass/fingerpicking banjo (rather than clawhammer/frailing or tenor banjo).
Everyone has different challenges and interests, so I always tailor lessons to your individual needs. I like to focus on learning through playing music that you love (songs, instrumentals, improvisation, etc.), while helping you feel a sense of progress and growth.
TEACHING LOCATION
I teach from my home studio in Brimscombe, Stroud (in Gloucestershire). It has everything we need for your lesson!
Alternatively I’m available for online lessons via Zoom (or Facetime, Google, etc.).
TESTIMONIALS
"Thank you for your patience & thoughtful guidance over the last year. I’ve loved every minute of our lessons and the musical tricks, tools & knowledge you’ve shared."
– Toby T
"From the very first lesson he puts you at ease with his friendly and easy going nature; each lesson has been fun as well as being informative and it’s easy to look back and see clear progress."
– Samantha Kenyon (guitar teacher in training)
"I’ve been learning guitar with Jacob for the last year and a half or so and have found him engaging, encouraging and endlessly patient!
When I go back to songs we started with, it is inspiring how much he has taught me, and how far I have come."
– John Leigh
Thank you so much for being an amazing teacher and also helping me with my DofE! You have made me feel much more confident in singing and much better at guitar! […] I have really enjoyed our lessons!
– Holly Ewing, age 15
