I offer guitar and bass lessons in Crowland, located between Peterborough, Spalding, and The Deepings. Lessons are available for all ages and abilities, from complete beginners to advanced players, and cover electric, acoustic, classical, and bass guitar, as well as ukulele, music theory, and sight reading. I also provide support for GCSE, A-level, and degree-level syllabuses.

What My Students Say

“I started lessons with Jack having never played guitar before and was quite nervous, but he put me at ease straight away. The lessons are relaxed, well structured, and always tailored to what I want to learn. I’ve made far more progress than I expected and actually enjoy practising now.”

Mark Royce

Peterborough

“I’d tried a couple of guitar teachers in the Spalding and Deepings area before starting lessons with Jack, but I never really felt like I was moving forward. Jack’s teaching style is clear, practical, and easy to follow, and I finally feel like I’m making proper progress. The lessons are relaxed but focused, which suits me well.”

David Stern

Spalding

“Jack has been teaching my daughter guitar for a while now and she’s really grown in confidence. Lessons are calm, encouraging, and well structured, and Jack is very patient and good at explaining things clearly. My daughter genuinely enjoys her lessons and looks forward to going each week.”

Emma Lawson-Turner

Market Deeping

"My son (age 9) has been having guitar lessons with Jack for just a few months, and the progress has been incredible. Jack is patient, calm, and brilliant at explaining things in a way children understand. With his previous teacher, we always had to push him to practise, but now he does it on his own! Highly recommended for any parents in Crowland."

"I started learning electric guitar with Jack three years ago when I was 15. He helped me pass my Rockschool Grade 5 and also taught me how to set up my amp and pedalboard properly. My confidence has shot up, and I’m now playing lead guitar in my first band. Couldn’t ask for a better teacher!"

"I learned classical guitar when I was younger and wanted to return to it in retirement. Jack has been brilliant at helping me rebuild my technique without ever making me feel rushed or embarrassed. His knowledge of classical repertoire and exam preparation is excellent. I’m enjoying playing again more than I ever expected."

"I started acoustic guitar lessons with Jack in my late 30s after years of wanting to give it a proper go. Jack’s teaching style is relaxed but focused, and he always adapts the lessons to the songs and techniques I’m interested in. I’ve gone from barely knowing a few chords to confidently playing complete song. I only wish I’d started sooner!"
