I’ve started offering guitar lessons as a way to make a bit more cash when I’m not tuning pianos. It’s something I’ve always wanted to do but I never knew the right way to go about it until recently. Even though this is a piano tuning website I’ll advertise anyway (it’s still music-related I suppose). As posted on the Sheffield forum:

I charge £10 for an hour lesson, £5 for a half hour lesson. I can travel to your house or you can learn at my house (I’ve got a collection guitars and amps you can use if that’s easier) in the S10 area of Sheffield. Parents are more than welcome to sit in on lessons.

What I can teach:

– Pieces in the following styles: rock, blues, jazz, classical, metal, shred, country, pop, punk and more.

– A thorough knowledge of scales, modes and music theory.

– How to learn your favourite songs by ear.

– How to improvise.

– How to sight read.

– A range of techniques than will improve your muscianship (finger tapping, sweep picking, hybrid picking and more).

– Grades 1 – 8 in the Rock School and Trinity syllabi. I can help prepare you for these exams if you prefer the more formal route.

My youtube channel contains videos of me playing the guitar. I get a bit embarrassed showing off my shredding skills but I have to post it as proof that I know how to play: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzlVvtpcoLhyYkdI6j1tp2g/videos
