I have been with Kevin for 18 months and it has been a blast. The lessons are easy to follow and filled with tips and tricks to make your playing that much easier. Its not all about book work, but also songs and he makes it a great mix. Practise for me now doesnt seem like practise and the improvement I have seen over 18 months is fantastic. He also encourages you to join his jam sessions, which are exactly that, with others of the same ability level as you which are great. I thoroughly recommend Kevin's school.

I started lessons with Kevin as I was a frustrated mainly self-taught guitarist who was struggling to become the guitarist I wanted to be. My progress was slow, I found it impossible to work out a coherent course of study, and I kept hitting plateaus that I didn’t know how to move past. The sheer volume of educational material available was overwhelming and I did not know what to concentrate on. A friend of mine had been having lessons with Kevin for some years and recommended him to me. After reading Kevin’s book The Secrets of Successful Practising and his articles in NZ Musician magazine, I realised this was the teacher I’d been looking for! One thing that impressed me immediately was that Kevin asked me what my goals were. After nine months of lessons, I can already see enormous positive changes in my playing. I’ve made more progress that I imagined was possible and I most definitely could not have done this without his help. Kevin is a great teacher, and a patient, positive, encouraging mentor. His lessons are always moving me closer to my goals, and are interesting with just the right level of challenge. I thoroughly recommend Kevin to anyone who is serious about learning the guitar and is prepared to put the time and hard work into achieving their goals.

Kevin's lessons are outstanding. He is always organised and responsive to questions. He has a clear pathway for you, and can also deviate to focus on what you are interested in. He teaches you to be a musician who plays the guitar, so you really develop your all round musical knowledge. I've had a few other teachers who were more like part-timers in comparison, they just did random things at each lesson, and sometimes played more than I did. Kevin's approach is totally different, it's grounded in really deep understanding of how to teach and practice music. Kevin also spends time each year going to workshops and learning more, and then sharing all that stuff with his students. Overall, if you want to learn guitar, go see Kevin sooner rather than later.

I've been studying guitar with Kevin for nearly ten years and have been grateful for the chance to do this. He has always met me at my level and at the same time pushed me to do better than I thought I could do. His approach is encouraging and motivational and has benefitted all aspects of my life, through nurturing my love of all things musical. I would recommend his tutoring with my whole heart. No matter what age you are, what life stage you're at, or what your musical goals are, Kevin will definitely make the learning journey incredibly satisfying and enjoyable.
