Tom

I have a busy performing and recording career, several years` teaching experience and personal teaching style.

Availability: Please contact me for availability-I usually teach during the week.

Willing to travel: Home Only

Experience: Most recently I have been playing guitar in London`s West End, in several bands in London and the Southeast and currently hold a chair on a new show at Charing Cross Theatre, London. I have performed around the world on cruise ships, recorded sessions at Abbey Road, Studio 1 and I am in demand as a session guitarist for recording and performing. My experience as a professional gives me unique insights into many playing styles and I love to pass on what I have gained in my career to budding musicians.

I have a masters in performance from the world-renowned Guildhall School of Music and Drama, where I achieved a distinction.
Previous teaching posts include Leeds University and Leeds West Academy. I have also been privately teaching young people, hobbyists of all ages for several years, and I coach working professional musicians.

I am a serious performer, dedicated to my craft. I hold myself and my students to a high standard, and have limitless patience with people who are keen to learn. I love to challenge my students and inspire them with my own passion for music and all things guitar.
