About Me
I hold a Diploma certificate in Modern Guitar released by Saint Louis College of Music in Rome, Italy.
My experience in teaching music of every genre helped me to develop an interest, as well perseverance and patience towards each student's progress. I have followed their music taste, their inclination, and their personality with strong professional ethics. The more they succeeded, the more I succeeded as a teacher.

Each lesson will be focused on playing instrument, learning songs and working on a personal style.

Moreover, I strongly believe that a music journey is successful when the student's personal creativity and their technical skills are intertwined.

To do so, I included the use of a professional DAW software such as Steinberg Cubase during my lessons.

Learn Acoustic & Electric Guitar or Bass with Islington's top guitar tutor!

Beat the Coronovirus Blues by actually playing the Blues :)


With the Virus threat and self-isolating now is the perfect time to learn guitar. I will help you at whatever stage you're at, if you are just starting out to Intermediate-advanced players with fun and friendly lessons.

With over 20 years of teaching experience and my unique approach to learning, you will not only make the quickest progress possible but have a lot of fun on the way.

• Are you an absolute beginner no idea where to start?
• Are you finding that the books and DVDs don’t seem to help you progress?
• Want to play that song you’ve had in your head?
• Always wanted to play that Jimi Solo?
• Got a guitar gathering dust but never got around to playing?
• Stuck in a rut - Can’t stop playing the same old riffs?
• Want to be able to play over the entire fretboard?
• Want to know what scales fit with what chords and vice versa?
• Music Theory - the hows and whys.

With your first steps into guitar playing, it is very important that you develop good technique - from holding the guitar in the correct position to exercises to help improve your strength and timing. With good technique, everything becomes easier, and once learned you’ll never forget it!

You’ll find that one-to-one lessons tailored to your pace of learning and the style you want to play will get quicker results than books and instruction video alone.

With my style of teaching, I focus on getting you playing the things you really want as quickly as possible. So whether you just want to strum a few singalongs or write your own, play some blues or get the funk out one to one lessons is the best way to achieve your goals and keep motivated.

It is a steep learning curve at the beginning but I have tried and tested methods to get you playing without difficulty Learn how to strum and change chords quickly and easily. Learn to play songs you really want to learn. I can transcribe any song and show you how to play it.

I have maintained a professional teaching schedule with over 1000 students taught in one-to-one private lessons. With over 20 years of teaching experience and my unique approach to learning will not only make the quickest progress possible but have a lot of fun on the way.

I have two locations: Angel, Islington (Upper Street N1 2BH)
or at my Recording studio in Finsbury Park. N4 Fully soundproofed (We can crank up the volume)
I have 11 guitars to choose from and full recording facilities available. so if you want to record a song you have written we can do that too :)

Thanks
