Sheffield Guitar Studio

My daughter has been with Jonathan over 6 months and she's really happy with the teaching. He's friendly, knowledgeable, flexible and cares about his work as a tutor. He has managed to keep the attention and interest of my teenager so I am well pleased. Thanks Jonathan.

Ok straight in, I find Jonathan an excellent guitar teacher, who is really easy to get along with. After the initial introductory lesson, I started having guitar lessons with Jonathan a few weeks ago, and it has been a very positive experience for me. I came from a beginners perspective, and Jonathan has been very supportive and shows a genuine interest in how you are developing. I find the lessons, challenging, fun and interesting. Jonathan clearly has a vast knowledge of the guitar, and I like his laid back and supportive style, it works. At the end of every lesson, Jonathan instructs me on what to practice for the following week, which is great as learning to play the guitar can be daunting as there is so much stuff out there, its difficult to know where to start. I have had lessons elsewhere before I found The Sheffield Guitar Studio, but I feel that with Jonathan I have made more progress in a shorter space of time than previously. All in all its 15 out of 10 for me. Thank you.

I have been attending lessons for several months now. After my first few nervous lessons I have built up a good rapport with JV. He really listens to what you want to achieve and tailors the lessons to that end , adapting lessons on the fly depending on my questions. For example I tried making up a solo as part of my study at home and next lesson went through why some parts didn't sound right. Impromptu music theory 101, then back to the lesson.
Lots of good ideas about my style and development and I can see why he is doing what he is doing.
Very knowledgeable and thoughtful teacher.

So lucky to have found a guitar tutor of this quality less than two miles from where I live, though his proximity is not what makes him such a find. A depth of knowledge across a wide range of styles and genres he exhibits a patient and encouraging manner that all his other students must surely benefit from as I continue to do one year on. The judicious use of technology in his teaching never strays into over-reliance and for me this too has been an extremely novel and particularly useful aspect of the learning process.
