Information About Joshua - Lambeth teacher

Personal Description:

Hi, I'm Josh! I've been teaching guitar for over ten years and am passionate about inspiring people of all ages and abilities to play music. I teach all styles and genres, with a specialism in acoustic fingerstyle. I have performed at the Southbank Centre, Royal Albert Hall and Barbican Centre, and my music has been played on BBC, Channel 4 and Netflix.

Tutoring Experience:

I have been working as a Guitar Teacher for over ten years in schools and privately. I trained with DaCapo Music Foundation and currently teach at Christchurch Primary School in Chelsea. I have performed with schools at the City of London Festival and worked with young people in a variety of settings including one-to-one tuition, ensemble teaching, community outreach, musicianship workshops, and rock band masterclasses, as well as tutoring students through exams with ABRSM, Trinity and London College of Music. I have a First Class BA in Music and am trained in the Kodaly method. I am a member of The Musician's Union and have an up-to-date DBS Certificate.

Tutoring Approach:

I have a flexible and student-centred approach that aims to tailor lessons to the interests and enthusiasms of students while also integrating musicianship skills, formal technique and improvisation. I have a wide range of students, from 7-year-olds learning simple folk melodies to adults learning popular songs or studying jazz and blues. I take great pride in being a good role model for children with a warm, enthusiastic and adaptable approach.
