When I was learning guitar, I was lucky enough to have been taught by some outstanding teachers and I think that fun and interesting teaching is fundamental in helping every musician to realise their talent and potential. I grew up in a very musical household and have participated in music/music making from a very young age.

Guitar Lessons
Working with Finn these past few months has been a great experience. He tailors the lessons to what I want to learn and makes playing guitar really enjoyable. Also, he is always available to solve a quick question in between lessons! Additionally, having all the files in the drive helps a lot. More...

Fionn has really helped me come a long way since my first lesson, partly because he always lets me choose what songs I’d like to learn which makes practicing really enjoyable! Would recommend Fionn to people of all ages and guitar abilities. More...

Guitar Lessons
Fionn started teaching my 14 year old daughter about four months ago. The experience has been really amazing and satisfying. I was honestly skeptical about online music lessons, but Fionn has proved that it can be done in a fun, productive and a smooth manner. My daughter has learned a lot in a short time and she was a total beginner. I highly recommend Fionn as he’s really a great teacher, very knowledgeable, extremely flexible and easy to deal with. It is also her skills section in Duke of Edinburgh Awards More...

Guitar Lessons
I've now had four lessons with Fionn and plan to have many more! I've been really impressed with his relaxed approach and focus on what I - as a learner - want to practice. Fionn has a friendly yet professional approach which is exactly what I was looking for and I'd happily recommend him to other aspiring guitarists. More...

What inspired you to start your own business?
When I was learning guitar, I was lucky enough to have been taught by some outstanding teachers and I think that fun and interesting teaching is fundamental in helping every musician to realise their talent and potential. I grew up in a very musical household and have participated in music/music making from a very young age. I began guitar tuition at the age of 8, with an emphasis on classical guitar playing, and took up electric guitar a few years later. Since then, I have been touring with bands up and down the country, as well as having recently finished my Masters degree in Commercial Music. I am excited by the prospect of sharing my knowledge with aspiring guitarists and am able to teach acoustic, classical and electric guitar, as well as electric bass.
