About Sam
I am a Guitarist and Musician currently doing a masters degree in Music Therapy at ARU. I have a background of performance, composition and teaching, and received a 1.1 (first) in a bMus in Popular Music Performance on Guitar from BIMM London (2019 Graduate).
I have been teaching since 2016, both privately and in schools and have over 800+ hours of teaching.

I teach electric or acoustic guitar and beginner ukulele. I also offer lessons on how to read and write music, music theory and how to use home recording software such as Logic pro and Garageband. I teach most popular genres, such as Pop, Rock, Metal, Folk, R&B, Blues, Acoustic, Fingerstyle and Classical.
I'm happy to either work through grades (RGT, RockSchool, ABRSM) with you or tailor the lessons to whatever it may be that you'd like to learn. I currently have a 100% pass rate for graded exams, all at distinction level.
I teach children as young as 4 years old to adults of any age. I also have experience working with children and adults with disabilities and learning disabilities.

Can highly recommend Sam!! Always well prepared for lessons, ensuring that they are tailored to your ability and what you want to work on. He is extremely personable and also takes the time to teach music theory in a way that is easy to understand, alongside learning how to play your favourite songs. Lessons are so much fun - you won’t be disappointed!
Sam is an incredibly patient guitar teacher and always adjusted the lessons to suit my abilities and goals. I was a bit nervous at the start, but Sam creates a really supportive environment that helps settle any nerves about messing up.
Highly recommended! Sam has been teaching me and my 2 young sons (aged 6 and 5) for 6 months. He is a highly personable, motivating and enthusiastic teacher - able to tailor his lessons to the ability of the student and their individual personal targets. Sam goes well and above in his efforts, regularly sending useful tips and videos to supplement the lesson’s learning. From my very first lesson he troubleshooted various simple techniques, instantly raising my game. My children look forward to their lessons with Sam and they always leave with a big smile. Great for beginners and also those already playing at a high level. We wish we had found Sam sooner!
