About Pete
Having been born in Leicester, initially I was inspired by the songs of Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell and the guitar playing of Davy Graham, Bert Jansch and John Renbourn.
I now write my own music, both songs and instrumental, where I teach and record myself and encourage students to as well in Southborough midway between Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells.

Initially having taught in Inner London schools in Peckham, Kidbrooke and Chislehurst, after moving to this area have taught at Tonbridge School, Tunbridge Wells Grammar for Boys and Skinners.

All of our reviews are collected by us and are 100% reliable. They correspond to a real experience lived by students with Pete.
Excellent! Knowledgeable and practical guitar teacher.
- Roger is a bass player and can play already so we looked at some complicated charts. To reach his goal, he must do intensive practise as they are very demanding.Pete's response :
Perfect! Excellent teacher, my son had a great lesson, he is looking forward to the next set of lessons.
- Peter's son is the student and is making great strides.Pete's response :
Perfect! Pete was professional, didn't waste any time & after two lessons my daughter is already picking up the basics
- Jana is a complete beginner at the guitar and after two lessons shows great promise.Pete's response :

I would highly recommend Pete who has been teaching our son for nearly ten years - he has been truly superb! His passion for music and the guitar has certainly made a positive mark on our son who now has a really diverse interest in guitar music - old and new, folk and blues, rock and indie. The experience has been great for his confidence, and he has become a very capable player. Playing the guitar started as a hobby but thanks to Pete it is now a really important and special part of his life!
As someone in their later years, who has no sense of rhythm, or hand coordination, you'd think deciding to learn to play an instrument was fool hardy. However Pete has somehow managed to work around those barriers and actually, miraculously, taught me to beyond my expectations.
Pete has the amazing ability to teach you without you actually realising you're being taught. Very patient, and thoroughly recommended.I have been a pupil of Pete's for many years, he is a top teacher and an outstanding musician (all genres). More recently, Pete has helped me with transcriptions and arrangements for all sorts of things, he does this so effortlessly, it seems. I am most grateful to Pete and I would recommend him wholeheartedly, if you want to progress with a teacher that really knows his stuff. David Rivers
I’ve been taking guitar lessons with Pete for 4 years. I’ve played guitar for 30 years but I was stuck in a rut. I have learnt so much from Pete and am back playing in a band. Pete can is a great guitarist and has taught me a number of different styles and also introduced me to music I would never had played. He has a fantastic understanding of musical history and the guitarists who have influenced music over the last 60 years. His lessons are enjoyable with a mixture of practical playing and theory. We do lessons over zoom and also face2face if required. I can highly recommend Pete. His relaxed and flexible style make the lessons something I look forward to each week.
Pete was recommended to me by my daughter, who he was teaching at the time, when I took up guitar in my 50s. I had a number of lessons with him, and found him to be an excellent teacher. Patient with my slow learning, and very knowledgeable about almost all styles of acoustic and electric guitar. Thanks to the great start with Pete I now enjoy playing regularly at sessions, singarounds and open mics, something I never thought would be possible.
Pete is a first class tutor ... his range of knowledge is astonishing; Classical to Pop. I've known him as a teacher and a friend for 20 years ... and I have no hesitation in recommending him.
