* Client Testimonials * 

Nick helped me to prepare for a role where I had to sing and play guitar at the same time. I had never picked up a guitar before.
He was very easy and patient, he taught me enough skills to get through an audition in less than a week. I went from never touching the instrument to being able to play full songs. I highly recommend him.


​Marisha Wallace - Singer & Actress 
(Dreamgirls/Aladdin/Hairspray/Waitress)
Nick really helped me to think about different playing techniques and styles on both electric and acoustic guitar. It’s been super useful both for my own playing but also for arranging and thinking about the guitar in an ensemble.

He also helped me with reading charts which I’ve always struggled with! He was clear, patient and keen to hear exactly what I wanted to learn and develop.

Samuel Wilson - Arranger & Musical Director 
Nick has been my teacher for 2 years now and in that time I’ve made incredible progress. Under his guidance I managed to achieve a distinction in my Grade 8 Rockschool exam in only one term. Throughout my time playing Zack Mooneyham in the West End production of School of Rock Nick helped me to perfect my technique and improvisation skills, making sure that I performed to the best of my ability and this greatly increased my confidence on stage....

He is patient, supportive and really fun to learn with and we manage to cover an incredible amount of work in every lesson. He teaches me many genres, from rock solos to blues licks, and walks me carefully though each piece, making sure that every aspect of my playing is as good as it can be. Our Zoom lessons are just as fun and productive....
​
He really is an awesome teacher and my lessons with him are always the highlight of my week.
