Craig Medlin

My teaching approach is centred around collaboration rather than prescription. Instead of telling students what they should learn, I take the time to understand what they want to learn. Together, we create a personalised learning plan that suits each student’s goals, abilities, and interests.

I have over 10 years of experience teaching both electric and acoustic guitar, and I aim to keep every lesson fun, engaging, and interactive. Beginners usually start by learning the names of the strings and the basics of holding and handling the instrument. From there, we move on to right-hand picking techniques, introducing the left hand to play notes and chords, and gradually building up to the essential chord shapes needed to play many of the songs we all know and love.

From that point onward, progress is guided by you. Whether you’d prefer to keep things simple and song-focused or dive deeper into scales, soloing, and music theory, lessons are always tailored to your comfort level and enjoyment. My goal is to create a relaxed, supportive environment where students feel confident, motivated, and excited to learn.
