High quality bass lessons from professional with 10+ years of experience, I've worked with people of all backgrounds and performed around the UK and Europe

Sam has been teaching my son Archie bass guitar for a few years now, from about grade 4 onwards.
Sam’s an excellant teacher - he and Archie have a great rapport, and Archie’s made good progress. Most importantly, Archie enjoys playing bass, and enjoys his lessons with Sam. Sam plays bass professionally with several bands and his experience of the music industry is useful and inspiring for students. I’d thoroughly recommend Sam as a teacher to other bass students.

Sam is a great tutor. He helps me develop by playing different styles, using his knowledge and experience to encourage me out of my comfort zone and master new techniques. All done in a planned, friendly, supportive and non-pressurised way which motivates me to practice and learn.

I highly recommend guitar lessons with Sam. I’ve been having lessons once a week since May 2024. Sam is an excellent tutor. His lessons are enjoyable and relaxed but with a clear focus. Sam is a talented musician and incredibly knowledgeable about different genres of music and all things guitar related. I recommend Sam for beginners to advanced musicians. I’ve made great progress and plan to have lessons with Sam for as long as possible!

Sam has been teaching bass guitar to our now teenage daughter for more than two years: he's extremely knowledgeable, enthusiastic, patient and encouraging, and as a guitar player myself I'm really impressed by the results he's achieved through a great balance of fun exercises, musical theory and a love of the instrument. He is engaging and personable, and has tailored his lessons to include the sort of music that our daughter likes, meaning she looks forward to the lessons and can practise the songs from her favourite artists. His communication about lessons is also great - he's reliable and on time too.

Sam is patient, creative and been a fantastic tutor to my 13-year-old son. The content of the sessions are varied, fun and includes music we all enjoy to listen too when my son is practising. My son has learnt a lot of new skills in understanding music that has also supported him at school.

Sam has been teaching my children for over 8 years now - both bass and guitar - and they have made significant progress and a real love of playing their instruments. They have progressed through the grades well when they have wanted to do that, but also really enjoy the focus on non grade work, with lots of improvisation, great technique and they find it inspiring to be taught by a musician who has a broad musical career outside of teaching. Would highly recommend Sam to anyone looking for guitar or bass tuition.
