Acoustic Guitar Lessons Hello I’m Matt, a patient, relaxed and friendly Online Guitar Tutor.

I’ve been playing guitar for 22 years and I’ve been teaching for over 5 years. I teach all ages and levels from complete beginner to advanced. I play a broad range of styles from classical, to acoustic finger style, to electric guitar. I recently moved from London to Australia. In the UK I taught over 1300 lessons, with a 5 star rating.

I like to start by getting an idea of what type of style/bands/artists you like so I can tailor the lessons to suit you.

For beginners I like to cover reading guitar tab, learning chords, scales, note length and values, practising rhythm and playing with a metronome, slides, bends, hammer ons and pull offs.

I provide notated guitar tab/sheet music for us to learn from and I email that after the lesson so you can go over and practise what we covered during the lesson.

Once we have covered the basics I always ask you to recommend a song that you would love to play! I’ve found you're more likely to practise and have fun if you learn a song you love. If the song is a bit too tricky I can create a slightly easier version of it for you.

For Intermediate Players we will cover:

Barre Chords 
Modes
Chord Progression Theory
Composing Songs
Finger Picking/fingerstyle
Flamenco right hand patterns
Classical music
Music Theory

I have excellent attention to detail, but I am very patient with a laid back personality. My lessons are fun and friendly, in a productive but no-pressure environment.

GUITAR FOR ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS!

*
This method will take you from beginner level to confident social player level and beyond.
*
*
I've designed this method for all ages. Very easy 1st lessons for younger students with developing hand skills AND it's perfect for adults who have had hand injuries, RSIs and just general stiffness that comes from using their hands in the workforce over the years.
*
*
It teaches all of the open string chords you'll need to be an effective social player and more.....with lot's of exercises and songs to give you practice mastering your chord changes in an enjoyable manner.

BAR AND MOVEABLE CHORDS

THIS IS A DIRECT FOLLOW ON FROM MY OPEN STRING METHOD.
*
*
This method deals with BAR AND MOVEABLE CHORDS and is written for advancing social players and students who would like to develop enough skills to play in their 1st band for fun.
*
*
You never truly gain your independence as social player until you have mastered your bar chords. I've taught countless people who spent years avoiding the bar chords thinking it was just too hard
*
*
This method starts with 6-7 main BAR SHAPES and works them in thoroughly .....with lot's of exercises and songs to give you practice mastering your chord changes in an realistic manner. As social player these will open up a huge number of extra tunes and styles that open chords just didn't cover.
