“I’ve been having guitar lessons with Paul for a few months now and my vocabulary and music theory knowledge has increased dramatically. Paul is calm and patient and explains everything in simple terms. I would urge anybody, no matter what level you are currently at, to use the Sound Hut Music tutors to help you get to the next level.”
“Paul is an absolutely fantastic guitar teacher with boundless patience and talent. I can’t recommend him enough!”
“Paul is an incredible guitar teacher. I started off as a complete beginner and went to Paul without knowing how to play a single chord, but now I can play some well-known songs and riffs. Paul’s lessons are always varied and enjoyable, and Paul is such a nice guy, always encouraging you and guiding you in the right direction. He’s an incredible guitar player but an even better teacher that makes you feel confident and makes you love guitar playing even more. Although I have no experience singing with Hayley, she is such a lovely person and the singing that I hear while with Paul is always exceptional. I completely recommend Sound Hut Music to any one of any skill level and experience.”
“I have been having guitar lessons from Paul now for about 9 months after trying to teach myself over the past 30 years.its never to late.I would recommend to anybody wanting to learn to play the right way give Paul a try you won’t be disappointed.”
“Paul is a terrific teacher and a terrific person. He has taught our son for a couple of years and has transformed his attitude not just to the guitar but to his general attitude to music and his wider self confidence. He has the knack of gently “nudging” in the right direction, encouraging, advising, as well as the technical stuff. David has now achieved his first Grade exam. Something we did not see coming even a few months ago. We sincerely wish Paul all the best in his new life in Manchester and, like others, just wish he were nearer! Thanks for everything, Paul.”
“My son Ollie has really enjoyed being taught electric guitar by Paul for the last year and a half. Paul has been such an encouraging, inspiring and enthusiastic teacher, ensuring great progress and tailor-making the lessons to Ollie’s musical interests. We can highly recommend Paul’s teaching.”
“Monty has been having guitar lessons with Paul for over a year now. He is so patient and has really encouraged Monty. This is the first time that Monty has really stuck at anything and I really believe that Paul has a lot to do with this. Thank you so much. Joanne Brinson”
“Paul taught me for 2 years and in that time my playing and musicality have increased immeasurably. Paul is a great teacher.”
