From Dan (/5): I approached Pete wanting to learn to play jazz bass and he has tailored his teaching wonderfully to my fairly rudimentary level. He has the depth and breadth of knowledge and experience to help you improve, regardless of your learning style. He is patient and passionate about his subject and colours his instruction with references to the various musicians that have informed the style you're trying to learn, so that you're always aware of the context within which you are doing a given exercise or learning a piece of theory. The lessons are thoroughly enjoyable and you'll come away musically richer in technique, theoretical and historical knowledge - highly recommended!
Reply from: Peter: Many thanks Dan - It is an absolute pleasure to teach someone who is so attentive, keen and enthusiastic about music and their instrument - it will be most rewarding to share in your musical progression!
I’ve had a few tutors over the years but simply being a good player or a guitarist who plays a bit of bass doesn’t necessarily translate into being a good teacher.
Peter is a teacher by profession and it really shows in the way he approaches teaching the bass. He will take the time to listen to what you want and then structure your lessons accordingly using printed course material.
Highly recommended whether you’re a beginner or intermediate player.
