Ian has been absolutely fantastic with my daughter. She was a complete beginner and nervous to start learning, but Ian's calm and patient approach has worked wonders for her confidence. She really looks forward to her weekly lessons with Ian and we're very happy with her progress. If you're looking for a guitar teacher I would highly recommend Ian.

Ian is an excellent teacher who breaks down complex chords and techniques into easy-to-understand parts. He has tailored the lessons to my musical tastes, which kept me motivated. I've already learned to play lots of songs.
