Guitar lessons online covering classic styles of Jazz & Blues to modern Rock/Pop!

I have had guitar lessons with Bryan over the course of a few years and he has really helped me improve as a player. He is highly knowledgeable on a range of genres and takes a patient approach tailored to your individual goals. Would highly recommend!

Bryan was in the same band on a jazz gig. We played other funk and blues tunes as well and he had a good understanding of theory and technique. Great guy and musician!

I’ve known Bryan for over 10 years, even before he became the accomplished guitar instructor he is today. When I first started learning guitar, Bryan shared his knowledge with me and patiently taught me the basics. Although he didn’t have much formal teaching experience at the time, his natural patience and clear guidance were evident from the start. Bryan was particularly good at spotting my mistakes early on and offering practical advice that helped me improve quickly.

Due to study commitments, I wasn’t able to continue lessons with him. It wasn’t until recently that I decided to resume my guitar lessons with Bryan. To my surprise, his teaching skills had developed significantly in both depth and breadth. Not only has he refined the skills I noticed early on, but he has also possessed new qualities such as active listening, adaptability, organisation etc.

It’s been wonderful to see how far he’s come as a professional instructor. I have no doubt that his current students benefit immensely from his skill, patience, and supportive teaching style. I highly recommend Bryan to anyone looking to learn guitar, whether you’re a complete beginner or someone looking to enhance your existing skills.

Really interesting method, certainly someone who wants to get you to truly understanding the fundamentals and really listening...plus a gentleman and nice chap to boot :)

I have been learning the guitar with Bryan for 3 years and really enjoying the lessons. His teaching methods are great and we managed to achieve the goal of playing in front of an audience within a year of starting. He is kind, friendly, and patient. I am always looking forward to the lessons and improving my skills on the guitar. Thanks

I had an incredible experience with my guitar lesson! Bryan was patient and provided personalized feedback that really helped me improve my skills.
Highly recommend!!

He has a way to express his knowledge and ideas to you and he is able to play with such control and creativity that you just want to keep learning and going to get to where he is and further more…..

Couldn’t recommend anyone better

When I first started guitar it was quite overwhelming, there was so much to learn and it was difficult to know which direction to go in. Bryan taught me a method for learning songs on guitar that massively improved my abilities, confidence and overall musicality. If I struggled with a concept, he was adept at communicating it in simpler terms. He’s also a great guy and very easy to get along with, I always looked forward to our lessons.

Bryan was an excellent colleague at MusicLab in Leeds. He is really friendly, easygoing and has a calm and patient demeanor. He is conscientious and punctual. He regularly plays around Leeds, and I understand that he's a very skilled guitar player, well versed in different musical styles.

An Excellent Guitar Teacher!
In my opinion, Bryan teaches guitar with a unique approach—one that I haven't experienced anywhere else. I truly benefited from the sessions I had with Bryan, and many of the complexities of playing guitar became easy and simple for me. I highly recommend him to all guitar students, regardless of their age.

Excellent! I received guitar lessons from Bryan last year over a number of months. His love for music, particularly jazz and his passion/expertise as a teacher and player really shine through. Would recommend bryan to anybody of any age group.or any skill level

I have worked with Bryan a number of times as a member of the thriving Leeds music scene and also as a member of staff at Leeds Junior Conservatoire. Bryan is a passionate musician and educator and a diligent professional, adept at all styles of music and guitar playing.

I totally recommend Bryan, he likes to plan his lessons in a meaningful way in order to get the best results out of you.

Bryan is an easy going and kind tutor. He seems to enjoy teaching his students genuinely as I’ve experienced this myself. He holds a conversation well but also makes sure lesson time is not wasted. You can’t go wrong with Bryan as your tutor.

Bryan is a great tutor and player, with a great understanding of jazz and pop and very easy to work with. He's calm, patient and excited about learning and teaching.

I fully appreciate his music teaching style since the learning is serious with good progress. Covers fundamentals of the instrument, knowing your way round the fretboard, and ear training development.

Great guitar tutor who offers one-to-one private tuition. In the lessons expect to learn a lot about music from the fundamentals and basics all the way to specialisation and mastery. Good for anyone looking to get into a solid learning routine!

He is a serious guitar tutor who helps you learn the basics before mastering a specific style. The music lessons are of good quality and always to a high standard, which makes learning very enjoyable and fun!

Worked with Bryan in recording sessions. He is a very experienced musician and guitarist who has the skill and knowledge to be able to deliver great results. Friendly and easy to work with

You can tell he is experienced in teaching since he is patient with my son's learning.

Effective system of practice routine which enhances the learning progress. Lessons are very helpful and suited to each individual's needs!

Systematic guitar teaching, great musicianship as well!

Bryan is a good guitar teacher who cares about the progress of the learner. His teaching methods work so well that I improved most while studying with him

Bryan is one of the most talented musicians I have met, his teaching style and methodology is very clear and easy to follow.

Played with Bryan over the course of two years and he is great to work with!

Bryan is a great player and teacher - versatile in style and playing, with a methodical approach to music. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience with Bryan!

Bryan is an excellent tutor with great musicianship and teaching skills. He makes learning music and guitar very intuitive and fun.

I like Bryan's teaching style being very versatile and tailored to the individual - not a 'one-size-fits-all' kind of approach. He uses effective methods to enhance the progress of students. Definitely recommend!

A few years ago we collaborated in producing music. This included arranging covers of songs and composing new original material. He contributed a lot musically and we had a good time!

Bryan is very passionate about teaching jazz and I am making great progress! Thanks!

I was learning classic rock and hard rock songs in the lessons. They were well-structured, and I really liked the planning of goals and targets so we both work towards something rather than just having a jam all the time.

Learning heavy rock guitar with Bryan has been a thrill! It has helped me progress onto metal music with the same knowledge and technique applied. Fully recommend his teaching!

Bryan is always dedicated to his job and has a good reputation on the local music scene. I would recommend him for anyone looking to learn music.

I learnt Jazz music with Bryan. During the lessons we worked on transcription and he helped me become a confident improviser. He is professional and very patient so I could learn at my own pace.
