My name is Luke and I am a 24 year old, multi-award winning guitarist from Greenwich, London. I am an experienced and enthusiastic teacher and am adept at all varieties of guitar playing, including, classical, acoustic, electric and bass. I have recently graduated with Master's in guitar performance from Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance and also play in different rock-oriented groups that have toured around the UK. I have been taught by world leading experts, including Graham Devine, David Russell, Roberto Aussell, Craig Ogden and many others. As a performer I have been able to explore many different avenues in my career. I frequently perform and record as a solo artist, in chamber ensembles and in contemporary rock and pop groups and have specific interests in Spanish, Latin music and in re-recording old and potentially forgotten music. My recent honours include being awarded a position on the International Guitar Foundation's Young Artist Platform. I have also performed at major UK festivals, including Helly's International Guitar Festival and The Royal Greenwich Guitar Festival. In 2021 I won my first major prize; The Allison Stephens competition for plucked strings. My ambition is to discover useful and creative ways of teaching people the guitar and to teach at the highest level I can. I have been very lucky to have had many fine teachers over my education and I hope I can inspire my students in the same way my teachers inspired me. Regarding my previous experience in tutoring, I have given 1000's of hours of guitar tuition both privately and in school settings. These experiences have given me a keen sense of how to motivate students and offer them concise and useful advice. I have worked at many excellent institutions in the past, including Streatham and Clapham Girls' School (one of the top private girls schools in the country), Orpington Music Studio, The Royal Arsenal School of Music and Canada Blanch Music Academy. I have found over my experiences of being taught and then eventually teaching that the best method for getting the most out of a student is to listen. If the tutor is acutely aware of where their student needs help and where they are already confident they can tailor classes carefully to make the best use of the time allowed and to get the maximum potential out of them. This philosophy leads to classes being student-oriented, in that they lead the tuition. The tutor acts as a supportive crutch, first working through problems together, then allowing them to explore it themselves with the tutor to lean back on. In my first years of training, like many others, I completed grades and that is how my teachers and I measured my progress. Because of this I have a very good knowledge of what it takes to move up this system. However, the grade system should not be seen as the only way to learn an instrument. The same achievement can be gained through simple discussion between student and teacher and the correct prescription of pieces and studies to work on. I am more than happy to walk down whatever avenue they wish to explore. I would love to hear from you in the future. Thank you.

Perfect! Luke is a talented guitar teacher - so knowledgeable, friendly, encouraging and experienced. I’ve really enjoyed lesson with him and already see myself improving(and mistakes from online learning corrected)! Planning to learn with Luke long term! Highly recommend
Perfect! Great with the kids!
Perfect! Excellent first lesson. Took the time to understand me, my interest in the instrument and my desires and adapted the teaching to suit. Clear direction, explanation and stripped it down to the basics to make it understandable. Can’t ask for more than that. I have great hope and motivation now coming out of this first lesson

Luke is a fine musician specialising in all aspects of the guitar. He has performed extensively both as a soloist and also as part of a successful band which demonstrates his versatility.
Reliable and trustworthy Luke has broad experience in mentoring by developing and supporting A level students within local schools.
I have no reservations in recommending Luke to you whatever your skill level and I am confident he can work with you to achieve your personal goals.I am a student currently being taught by Luke, I started having a very limited knowledge of guitar but since taking lessons with him I have grown in confidence and my playing gets better every week. After every lesson I feel very fulfilled and we set goals each week help my progress. I would highly recommend Luke as a teacher, he is very motivated by the individual needs of the student and tailors his lessons to suit.
Luke is an amazing teacher!! Clear instructions, fun lessons and he's really helped me get through my guitar exams!
