Guitarist with 22 years’ experience teaching all levels

Advert description
Hi, I’m Ben — a professional guitarist with over 22 years of experience and formal training from North Herts College and the Academy of Music and Sound. I’m passionate about helping students of all ages and levels develop their skills, confidence, and creativity on the guitar.

My teaching is grounded in real-world playing, songwriting, and performing, combined with a strong foundation in music theory and technique. I take pride in offering structured, supportive, and engaging lessons tailored to each student’s goals.

I bring both professional knowledge and personal dedication to every lesson. Whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced player, you can expect a friendly, focused, and professional learning experience.

I take a flexible, student-focused approach to tutoring—adapting each lesson to your goals, experience, and musical taste. Whether you're picking up a guitar for the first time or refining advanced techniques, I’ll guide you step by step with clear, practical advice. Lessons typically last 60 minutes and include warm-ups, technique building, learning songs or solos, and exploring music theory in a way that’s directly connected to your playing.

I create a relaxed, supportive environment where you can grow in skill and confidence. I have over 22 years of experience as a guitarist, performer, and songwriter, with formal training from North Herts College and the Academy of Music and Sound (BTEC Level 2 First Diploma and Level 3 Extended Diploma).

I combine real-world playing experience with structured music education to help students at every level. My lessons are suitable for all ages and all skill levels—from complete beginners to advanced players.

Whether you're into rock, metal or songwriting, I'm here to help you reach your musical goals.

Ben is an amazing and down to earth teacher for those of you that don't just want learn how to play along with tabs, but also want to understand the mechanics behind the instrument and the music. If you stick with the music theory and technique exercises that he provides then you'll learn the most important thing that'll keep you picking up the guitar: The ability to effortlessly play along to whatever song you want to play. He's mostly experienced with metal/power metal/shred, but he'll teach you the foundations that are important for any style of guitar. Whether you're a beginner picking up the guitar for the first time, or a more experienced player that's sick of just picking up the guitar and aimlessly noodling, and want to take your technique and understanding to the next level then look no further.

I was learning guitar for years, but always had problem to really understand how things fit together. I knew some chords here, some scales there, but I couldn’t see how to connect them across the neck. It felt like I was just memorising shapes with no real use. Ben helped me finally make sense of it all. He explained things very clearly and showed me how chords, scales, and positions all link across the fretboard. After just few lessons, I started to really see the guitar in different way. Everything feels more connected now. He’s very patient and easy to talk to, and he really listens. I’m very happy I found him as a teacher.
