Frequently Asked Questions

Do you teach beginners?

I teach pupils of all ages, from young children to retirees. Lessons are adapted to suit the learner’s age, interests, and ability.

Do you offer a free consultation?

I'm happy to chat at length via phone, email or WhatsApp before you book.

Can I borrow an instrument for my first lesson?

Yes – I have a spare guitar, stage piano and ukulele you can use.
