Huw is an excellent guitar teacher, providing top quality tuition in a relaxed environment. As an adult learner, I highly recommend him for your music journey! 👍
Sammi
My 9yr old has just started guitar with Huw and loves it. He loves it because Huw makes the sessions so fun and utterly engaging – ”I really like the way Huw teaches me, it doesn’t feel like learning a load of music”. He is making huge progress in a short space of time. Huw really is an exceptional teacher and knows intuitively how to tap into his tutee’s way of learning, a rare skill indeed. My boy is always on cloud 9 after a lesson with Huw
Rosie
A great tutor who has the patience to handle my slow progress. Every lesson is a progression unless I ask for a recap which he’s always happy to do. Huw is very laid back which makes it an ease to ask any questions no matter how small or big.
Harry
The kids love Huw and are progressing well. He keeps them interested and they really enjoy his lessons!
Cathryn
Huw has been teaching my teenage daughter guitar for the past 5 years and has been an exceptional tutor, both encouraging and supportive from the first time she picked up a guitar to the present day. Huw has a natural ability to communicate to younger children and teenagers and as a talented musician his enthusiasm to teach others shines through. Extremely reliable even through the pandemic, Huw adapted to be able to offer lessons which helped enormously. I highly recommend Huw as a tutor.
Natalie
Huw’s taken my guitar playing to another level over the past year. After practicing the same things over and over for years on my own, he’s taught me new techniques and approaches to playing that have enabled me to start loving the guitar again. And learning online is easily as good as a face to face lesson. So impressed. Massively recommended!!
Alex
Hûw has been really great in taking my guitar playing and guitar composition to the next level – he’s very willing to follow up on any ideas, queries or avenues of exploration I have, and also has a lot to teach when I don’t have any ideas of what I want to learn! Both my guitar playing and my understanding of music theory and specifically theory associated with guitar have definitely improved under his tutelage! Thanks so much Hûw!
Angharad
Huw was of great help in my guitar playing journey, he took real interest in what I wanted to learn and brought my understanding along massively in a short amount of time. Really down to earth guy and a great sense of humour.
Ed
I am a complete beginner to playing the guitar and Huw was a very patient teacher. His guidance has helped my confidence in playing the guitar improve and his laid back, approachable demeanor makes for enjoyable, entertaining lessons. Would highly recommend.
Sam
Huw has been teaching my 8 year old son for a few months now. We’re so grateful for the patience and understanding Huw shows during his tuition. My son enjoys the sessions and responds very well to Huw’s relaxed yet highly knowledgeable manner, as Huw is able to approach the same concept in multiple ways in order to aid the learning. This has made the lessons rewarding and fun. Would highly recommend Huw as a tutor to young children aged 8 and over. Many thanks Huw!

I highly recommend him if you are looking for a great guitar teacher.

Marnie
Been having lessons here for a few months, really nice guy and I’ve learnt a lot in a short space of time. I highly recommend Huw if you’re thinking of taking up guitar lessons.
Tyler
I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude and admiration for the outstanding guitar lesson that my 10yrs old boy Alex had the pleasure of attending in the recent months.
The pace of the lessons was ideal, neither too fast to lose track nor too slow to lose interest. The balance between challenging tasks and engaging activities was also well managed, allowing Alex to enhance his skills whilst enjoying the learning process.
In addition, Huw’s passion for music and guitar is incredibly contagious and it has infused Alex with a renewed sense of enthusiasm for his musical journey.
Thank you once again.
Jerry
Adult learner. All new to acoustic guitar playing. The lesson was adapted to how I learn. Highly recommend
Claire
Huw puts his pupils at ease and tailors each lesson to their individual needs. This helps them grasp the concepts of learning the guitar more easily. Highly recommended.
Deborah
Great teacher, really professional and reliable
Damian
Huw is so patient and explains things really well, even though I’m a complete beginner. He goes above and beyond by giving sheet music and creates practice videos to use between lessons. I’ve never played an instrument before, but he makes me feel comfortable asking anything. I highly recommend him to anyone wanting to learn guitar – he’s awesome!
Lucy
Learning with Hûw had always been fun and conceptual 🙂
He is enthusiastic, humorous, flexible and professional !
Sunil
Huw has been teaching my son for nearly a year now and is always enthusiastic and patient with him. I can’t recommend Huw strongly enough.
Jenny
First off, Huw is such a tidy guy and is so easy to get on with it’s always a pleasure to go for a lesson. Then of course the lessons themselves, a great teacher in many ways it’s all at your pace and very informative and the main thing (enjoyable). Alongside the communication outside of the lessons via text he’s very supportive and always giving new things to learn. 100% recommend
Alex
I had been playing guitar (self taught) for around 4 and a half years before starting with Hûw. I wanted to focus on guitar theory to give me more of an edge while playing and to hopefully make me a more confident guitarist. The weekly lessons I have with Hûw are perfectly tailored to the guitar theory I want to learn while also providing a great launch pad for my weekly playing and learning between lessons. I would certainly recommend!
Owen
My son has recently started lessons with Huw following a recommendation from another parent. We’ve seen a massive improvement in his playing and interest. Would highly recommend.
Rory
Huw’s teaching is patient and encouraging, creating a comfortable learning environment that allowed me to progress at my own pace. Huw took the time to understand my goals and tailored each lesson accordingly. I’ve seen significant progress in my playing and Huw gives constructive feedback and encouragement. Overall, I would recommend Huw to anyone looking to learn guitar.
Grace
Hûw is teaching my 16 year old son to play guitar, and all I hear are good things about the lessons. He’s constantly practicing and playing on the guitar and I can hear he’s constantly improving. Highly recommended.
Dave
I’m very grateful to Huw for getting me back to my guitar after a long break. He’s takes time to explain chords and scales while making playing easier. Starting to finally get some songs together rather than strum chords. Keep up the good work.
Many thanks.
