Guy began teaching me my first chords 7 years ago. Since then he has taken me though numerous grade exams, GCSE music preparation and more recently preparing me for jazz university auditions. Guy is an inspiring guitar player and dedicated teacher in and out of the classroom. Can’t thank him enough for the musical passion he has instilled in me.
