STUDENT QUOTES

“I’ve been learning to play the acoustic guitar with Nigel for 4 years now, and can confidently say he’s the best you’ll find. I’ve managed to study up to a Grade 6 standard and have received distinction grades in every exam! As I am also focusing on academic studies, he provides a supportive and relaxing environment in which to learn all the necessary skills.”
Bethany – guitar student (Wellingborough) – Google Review

“Working with Nigel has enabled me to progress from simple strumming to complex pieces requiring techniques I never thought I would be able to master. His knowledge of music theory has helped me understand music and make it a more satisfying experience. He is always encouraging and very patient, explaining at each stage of the learning process.”
