About Josh
I have been playing guitar for 15 years and have the RGT Grade 8 qualification in which I was awarded the top grade of Distinction. In this time I have had a range of experiences including spending time in recording studios and performing live with a number of bands ranging in style from alternative rock to acoustic duos and once upon a time a 6 piece folk rock set up! I also have a wealth of experience songwriting creating both music and lyrics and going on to produce and perform these. Songwriting is something which I particularly enjoy and think this can go hand in hand with playing the guitar. I enjoy playing a number of instruments: acoustic and electric guitar, bass guitar, piano, drums, harmonica, banjo and most recently the tin whistle! My real specialisation lies in playing the acoustic and electric guitar but I do offer bass guitar lessons for beginners. I have taught a number of students over the years, mainly focusing on complete beginners. I am passionate about introducing people to the world of music, I aim to provide fun but comprehensive lessons which I hope will lead to a lifelong enjoyment of music for the student. I believe anyone of any age (as long as you have the desire and willingness to learn) can learn to play the guitar and gain a lifelong and rewarding hobby. It's never too late to learn a musical instrument! The aims of my lessons are to provide students with high quality guitar tuition while also offering value for money, I will be a point of contact not just during the lessons but also available via email to help students overcome any issues they may run into during their own practice time. Students will gradually build up their technical abilities while developing an understanding of music theory. Using this approach I hope to very quickly provide students with the means to simply 'play' the instrument and enjoy doing so. This will enable students to learn any songs they want to, create their own songs and enjoy the experience of playing with other musicians in a variety of settings. Most importantly the lessons are intended to provide the students with the tools to allow them to utilise the vast pool of resources available on the internet and teach themselves in the secure knowledge that their fundamental techniques are solid and they are not developing bad playing habits. Skype lessons are also available along with the one to one lessons in person. I also offer group lessons for families.

Nice guy, knows his stuff and I have really improved since taking lessons with him. Would definitely recommend.
I have had lessons with Josh every two weeks for the last two years, he is a great guy and I wish I could play guitar like him- not yet, but I'm getting there thanks to lessons with him.
