Having come from another local teacher I can confidently say Bob and his method are light years ahead of what I’ve personally encountered. His highly organised and structured program put you in the best position to develop as a player regardless of how far you want to go with it. I was pleasantly surprised (and frankly a little shocked-after what I was used to) at the quality of the resources he provides. Text books , backing tracks and videos coming seamlessly together in a systematic way to teach you the lessons are testimony to the time and effort Bob has put into his program. No hastily scribbled pieces of paper anywhere to be seen.Combined with Bob’s patience and good humour I would recommend to anyone wanting to give music a go to look Bob up. He’s a great teacher!

Bob is a fantastic Musician & teacher. He makes learning fun & possibly to reach your goals with the instrument you want to learn, & most importantly he really cares about your progress & getting you to the next level. I highly recommend Bob to anyone who wants to learn.

Been going to Bob for about 7 months now and he has improved my technical skills drastically. I highly encourage all ages to get lessons from him as he takes time in structuring his lessons INDIVIDUALLY for his students (I have multiple other friends who go to him, so I hear what they learn too) depending on their starting level. Always having a good laugh with Bob too, strongly recommend attending, the sooner the better.

Bob is an amazing, professional, and extremely talented musician.
My daughter has been with him since primary school and now has such a skill and passion for music she has continued into year 9 high school and plans to take it up as an elective.
My other daughter has taken up Bass and in such a short time has learnt so much.
He is unlike Like other music teaching facilities around which do not teach the important fundamentals first.
My daughters can not only play, they write music and compose songs.
They both adore Bob and have developed this teacher student bond.
He is patient and kind and his vast knowledge and his passion for music and teaching comes through always.
My recommendation can not come high enough for this person that has instilled a love for music in both my children.
That in itself is priceless

The best guitar teacher I have ever seen. We have cycled through too many music schools and teachers. Bob has by far got the best out of me and my 10 year old.

I cannot recommend Campbelltown Guitar Lessons with Bob enough. We have been elsewhere in the area and my son was not progressing. As soon as we started with Bob I noticed something clicked with my son and he was on his way. Bob has a wide knowledge of music and instruments and his teaching style is thorough with just the right amount of fun.

I have been a guitar student with Bob for a few years. Bob has had a huge amount of experience in the music industry, including many years as a teacher. Bob’s experience and professionalism is reflected in the way he conducts lessons for his students. Bob is very patient and understanding in regard to his students needs and abilities. Bob is also very proficient in a number of instruments. Bob is a great teacher, I recommend him to anyone wanting to learn anything about music.

I was missing something from my Guitar playing and after trying to keep up with various You Tube videos, I could not do any worthwhile playing. I found Bob and have been attending for over 6 months now and I have learned heaps - chords, easy and difficult, timing (something I never had) confidence and an inner delight that I am making progress. And as Nob states - Perfect Practice will make Perfect Playing! His facilities are very good, his style is relaxed, and he is very knowledgeable. I am so glad I have signed up with Bob - Recommend him to all levels of playing guitar. Thank you

I have started guitar lessons with Bob and have enjoyed the lessons immensely. The practice materials Bob supplies are great. They are easy to use and very helpful. Particularly the backing songs which help with timing and getting the beat. As a beginner he is very patient and has a wealth of experience to share. I would have no hesitation in recommending Bob’s studio for guitar lessons.

When I started to learn guitar, I tried a number of teachers but was not happy with my progress. I had one teacher who went to sleep during my lesson, while another used my lesson time for his own practice. None of them had a lesson plan and I realised I was being taught by guitar players, not guitar teachers. Fortunately my brother introduced me to Bob and I haven’t looked back. Bob is a music industry professional with a structured and systematic approach to teaching guitar. I have no hesitation in recommending Bob as a great guitar teacher

I have written 5 guitar methods and a Ukulele method to enhance my lessons.
*** TEACHING IS NOT A “SIDE HUSTLE” FOR ME. IT'S SOMETHING I GIVE A LOT OF TIME AND THOUGHT TO.
*** TEACHING HAS BEEN MY ONLY JOB FOR 45 YEARS
I am currently teaching 40+ students face to face at my studio at Leumeah.
$50 per half lesson is about the average fee for a full time professional teacher teaching face to face. I have a verifiable 1st rate track record as a professional teacher.
*** MY TIME AND EXPERIENCE ARE WORTH THE SAME.... FACE TO FACE OR ON LINE.
*** DURING THE COVID LOCK DOWN I DEVELOPED THE ONLINE TECHNIQUES, EQUIPMENT, AND METHODOLOGY TO DELIVER LESSONS EQUAL TO MY FACE-TO-FACE TUITION.
Because I'm using top quality Audio and Video equipment and software you will get the best quality our internet connections are capable of.
*** HIGH SPEED INTERNET.
I average around:
* 300-400Mbps Download
* 40-50Mbps Upload.
NOT TECH SAVVY? RELAX...I AM!
I CAN HELP YOU SET UP ZOOM AND YOUR EQUIPMENT TO GET THE BEST OUT OF YOUR LESSONS.
*** HIGH QUALITY VIDEO
3 Cameras, one for closeups.
*** HIGH QUALITY AUDIO
All Guitar and music audio direct to the net, not through a Mic.

I DO WHAT OTHER TEACHERS CAN'T OR WON'T DO.
* I TEACH SKILLS
While other teachers waste your time, money and enthusiasm teaching you bits and pieces of songs, favorite tunes and party pieces........(You can get that online for free. It's entertainment....not tuition.)
* I GIVE YOU A START THAT WILL KEEP YOU PLAYING FOR LIFE!!
* I teach all ages (12 and up), levels and styles. I concentrate on developing real world skills that will allow students to be successful at auditions, jam sessions and open mic nights.....or just be a good social player for fun at a family get together.
**************************LESSON FEES************************************
CHANCES ARE VERY FEW OF YOU WILL CONTACT ME FOR LESSONS
My fees reflect my experience and professionalism.
Yes...They are higher than most online....but about average for face to face, private, one on one lessons at professional music schools.
I'm not going to compete with people who have been playing for 10 years and teaching for 2-3 years, and teaching as a "Side Hustle" for pin money.
I'm sorry...a couple of bands in high school or Uni doesn't cut it as a "professional" career.
Nor does teaching a few kids to play bits and pieces of their favourite songs or a few open string chords make you a professional teacher.
This is typical of the vast number of teachers both on line and face to face.
Pop over to my other site and read the
"You deserve the best" section.

* Can't play the F chord.
* Having trouble playing bar chords.
* Wonder why your lead guitar playing sounds amateurish.
* Tired of your old ideas and want to explore some new styles.

* Don't know what you don't know.
REMEMBER.....
YOU CAN ALWAYS EARN MORE MONEY.
*** BUT YOU CAN'T GET BACK THE TIME OR ENTHUSIASM LOST TO SUB STANDARD AMATEUR TUITION.

I have a structured program that will take you from an absolute beginner to wherever you want to go, be it social playing, to amateur band, or industry pro.

**** WHO WOULD BEST BENEFIT FROM MY LESSONS AND TEACHING STYLE:
** ADULT SOCIAL PLAYERS
I tend to specialise in mature age adults.
NEVER TOO OLD
I teach a lot of adults who have found it’s far easier than they thought using my methods.
But lot of adults suffer from the “I’m too old” syndrome….I’m here to tell you that adults make the great students. They’re more focused than kids, and understand that if you put in a bit of work you will be rewarded.
They do have a few slight physical problems because of years of work injuries, RSIs, and old sporting injuries.
I take it slowly, and at a pace your hand feels comfortable with.
** DEDICATED STUDENTS WHO WANT TO PARTICIPATE IN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY AT SOME LEVEL.
The emphasis here is to help you develop Rhythm Guitar skills in a wide variety of styles as well as strong lead guitar skills.
This makes you useful in the real world...not just in your bedroom.
I also work with students to develop their Lead Guitar playing so that they have the ability to create different solos depending on style and chord progression......rather than just play the same tired old licks for every solo.
** STUDENTS 12 AND UP WHOSE PARENTS WANT THEIR KIDS TO LEARN SKILLS.....NOT PARTY PIECES AND BITS OF TUNES..
Sorry...I'm not going to teach you 7 Nation Army, Smoke on the Water, or Teen Spirit with 1 finger played out of time...this is entertainment....not tuition.
THERE'S A LOT OF POOR QUALITY TUITION OUT THERE!
In the last 12 months I have taken on 4 students (from a different well known music school, who promises the earth) who had been learning at this establishment for a least 6 months, and could not play a single thing for me on their 1st lesson.
NOT A SINGLE THING, NOT A CHORD, SONG, RIFF, OR INTRO.
I have students from 4 other local guitar schools who have all experienced the same atrocious tuition.

IF WE CAN'T ESTABLISH A RELIABLE INTERNET CONNECTION I WON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY.

I have been learning guitar from Bob for over a year and a half now. Bob has a structured learning pathway starting from beginner to become professional. In addition to his structured course, he also tailors his approach to the individual needs and liking. He has made my learning experience enjoyable and I can see myself progressing to next levels. I highly recommend Bob as a guitar teacher.
We can’t speak highly enough of Bob. He is a genuine, highly skilled guitar teacher who knows how to teach properly. Our two sons have progressed enormously and absolutely love their lessons. If you’re looking for a real guitar teacher who gets results, Bob is it.
Great teacher, location, understanding and knowhow! Happy to recommend Bob to students young and older, who want to play and have a teacher with professional qualifications, knowledge and experience!! I've chosen to continue developing with Bob's instruction and have been a student For over 3 years with a few breaks due to some medical matters but he simply picks up and keeps going when I’m ready. Thoroughly recommended!
My son Thomas has been a student of Bobs for 3 years. He was 13 when he started guitar lessons. Bobs methods and his understanding of knowledge, and also his connection to music has brought my son to a level that at 16 he now plays professionally.
I will be forever grateful to Bob for my son having both dedication and love of music.
I stopped learning to play my guitar because I couldn’t find anyone local to actually teach rather than learn particular songs, then I found Bob, that’s was 6 years ago. Bob is most certainly an exceptional musician and teacher, who will teach you open and bar chords, strum patterns, together with a range of songs to play along with. I am very pleased with my progress, and always look forward to my next lesson each week. I can a wide range of different songs, lead and rhythm using different strum patterns, open and bar chords, plus tabulator, thanks Bob.View more recommendations
