I'm an enthusiastic and passionate teacher who wants to teach people at any level.

Advert description

I'm a firm believer in learning what you love - we can drill scales and the boring stuff, but let's make sure you're playing what you WANT to play, not what you think you SHOULD play. You don't become a better writer by only reading the dictionary. We all pick up an instrument for a reason and keeping sight of that is so important - I've studied music for long enough now to know that the learning process can often disregard our love of the music itself. So yes, while we can cover fundamentals - scales, theory etc. - I want to know what you like and how we can incorporate that into your lessons and progressing YOU as a musician.

As one of the most musically inept characters you'll ever come across in your life, I never thought I had a chance at learning the guitar to serenade my wife, Alex, for a surprise at our wedding. Enter: Edd. Edd was an incredibly charasmatic and understanding teacher who made all the nitty gritty parts of learning music approachable and enjoyable. He was patient and really personable, making me feel comfortable at all stages and (almost) look forward to each lesson! He gives very effective feedback that's easy to take on board and I would highly recommend for anyone that is nervous about learning or doesn't know where to start. He seems to exude musical knowledge and ability so I'd assume someone who already knows a bit would benefit from his guidance as well! Up the dons, Dean L.

When I met Edd, he could easily have thought my fingers were raw hot dogs... But after a few weeks of learning with Edd I can now play in time, hit the right notes, and occasionally even both at the same time! Edd made sure to cover everything I could need: finger technique, rhythm, and how to look like I know what I'm doing. Most importantly, Edd creates a space where it's safe to be rubbish and has enough patience to listen to my slow progress week on week. He treats my stumbling attempts at bass lines as if they’re all part of a noble journey, like I am Frodo and he is Samwise, supporting me on my quest up mount doom to destroy the one ring, if mount doom is my bass guitar and the ring is Thundercat's Them Changes. If you want to actually get better at bass without losing the will to live, Edd is the high priest of low frequencies for you!
