All About Me
Hi, my name is Matthew and I’ve been playing the guitar and performing in various venues around Glasgow for the past 10 years. I have been teaching privately from home and in music schools for the past 5 years including the Yamaha Music School and the Glasgow School of Guitar. My job is a passion for me, and it brings me joy to be able to share this passion with my students. From their first lesson, they learn important foundational techniques to help them boost their skills and confidence.

Making Learning More Enjoyable
Beginner To Advanced
I offer lessons from beginner level to advanced on electric or acoustic guitar. I make sure to adapt to the style of music you want to play so you get the most out of your lessons, whether thats Rock, Blues, Jazz or any style you want to play.

I also have an extensive knowledge of music theory and can help you create your own songs and guitar riff ideas.

Reviews
My son has been learning guitar with Matt for a few month now and really enjoys his lessons. He learns with his best friend and they always have a practice at home before the lesson, it’s great to hear them progress and lovely that they are so enthusiastic. They are given notes on what they went over each day to keep track of their learning. They really look forward to seeing Matt, Tuesday is ‘Guitar Day’ in our house. Would absolutely recommend Matt to anyone looking to learn to play
Matthew has great knowledge and patience when teaching and unlike other teachers I had he structured his teaching on exactly what I wanted. I would recommend him to anyone starting out or anyone looking to develop as his skills suit all levels. He’s a great lad.

Our daughter has been learning guitar for a few months now and her confidence has grown each week under Matthews tuition! She always looks forward to her lesson on the Saturday morning and can’t wait to come home to show us what she has learned that day. I would thoroughly recommend Matthew if your thinking of taking up guitar lessons!
My son has only had a few lessons with Matthew and I can already see a massive improvement in his playing and his confidence. He really enjoys his lessons with Matthew and looks forward to them every week.
