Singers, guitarists and sax players of the world.... get taught and take over...

Hello ED forum chums... its time to dust off those old christmas presents.. and restart the music dream....



I have played and taught professionally for over twenty years: working with many well known artists and teaching at many schools and colleges in London and kent. I have also released my own albums and singles. I am interested in teaching through fun achievable goals and intend to have you playing something recognisable by the end of the first lesson!


I now have lots of lovely SE students and am also running a choir on tuesday evenings at goose green school... should anyone fancy...


I am happy to sit down with you and work out what sort of music you would like to play, sing, write or all three and then work out a simple plan for how to achieve that goal - including how to use the internet to find chords and tab and tuition videos that complement what i am showing you. In most cases I can get a student into a self sustaining learning curve within 8 lessons.



I teach saxophone, guitar, singing and songwriting, to anyone - from adult and child beginners through to people who are already musically literate.


20 pounds for 40 minutes and 27 pounds for an hour - with concessions for small groups, unemployed and younger children. Please get in touch if you are interested.


Half price first lesson to anyone who can tell me the band I paraphrased in my title.

Hi Dan


My 7 year old son & his friend got guitar's for Christmas and are looking for some lessons, can you let me know if you can come to our home in east dulwich to teach them and if so what's your availability? Lessons would need to be 6 or 6.30 pm


Regards

Kate

I live in east dulwich too, 113 friern Rd, so am probably pretty close. hope this helps. Will PM you my number..


Thanks for the interest

Hi. Quick update.. Have started teaching a number of folks from this forum, and I must say what a fine and talented bunch you are.. I have a double header schoolboy beginners guitar lesson in about 3 hours - about three houses away from mine, and Monday was privileged to bandy saxophones with the very impressive - up to now - guitar legend, John, who not only got a note out of his sax first time - but was managing to play a scale within about 15 mins - as I say, impressive - he can also drop an aeroplane into a tail spin if anyone fancies..

Hi - I just stumbled across this and was wondering if you're still offering lessons and, if so, what your availability is. My son loves the guitar but hates learning it formally. Would you be able to adapt to some kid of jamming session that would help him progress? Thanks.

Hi Debi, Jamming is great for learning - obviously after a while we would need to input some language and look at the players he likes - but sounds like he is already some way down the road, and would be fun to work with..

    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
