“Simon has a real knack for combining the boring (yet essential) theory with what essentially why you are there - to learn to play your favourite songs.

Only in time have I realised how empowering this approach is - because it keeps you enthusiastic whilst also ensuring that you are learning the necessary theory to learn sustainably.  

Simon is an excellent communicator and obviously a special music talent. This essentially makes the lessons a pleasure to be involved in - you really feel like you are learning from a pro!”

“I’ve been learning to play the guitar for the last 4 months under the tuition of Simon Morel. Not only am I learning how to play my favourite songs, but I’m also enjoying it immensely.

Simon’s nurturing approach certainly creates an easy to understand learning environment. I thought it would be a lot harder to learn how to play… especially at my age (48).”

Rocky Warren

“I started as a complete beginner with interest but also fear of the guitar. After about 6 weeks I am now able to play along to Radiohead and get some sounds out of the guitar which actually sound quite good!!

Simon's approach to teaching has been awesome and in addition to teaching me the technical knowledge required, I have been able to learn songs I love which is what I ultimately want.

The charts and videos have been a massive help as they are easy to understand and follow. I have found the initial stages of learning to be fun and I am now completely addicted and no longer afraid of the guitar. This is thanks to a very passionate teacher. Thanks Simon.”

Martin

“I started taking lessons at the start of this year as an adult, without any prior experience or training. Today after only six months of lessons I can play several songs and eagerly await each lesson.

Simon is a teacher of the highest calibre, who demonstrates considerable commitment to his students. I find that Simon teaches guitar in a way that keeps things simple to understand and easy to learn.

I would recommend him highly to any prospective student”

“The lessons have given me focus on what I want to achieve with my guitar playing - learning theory and the songs from my favourite artists.

From this I‘m inspired to practice each day and I am improving quickly. Also I’m trying some songwriting with what I have learnt.

The lessons are fun and are held in a music room I found creatively inspiring.”

Cathryn

“I have been a guitar student of Simon’s for a number of months and have always found his lessons to be professional and constructive.

Simon creates a relaxed and friendly atmosphere in which to learn and tailors the lessons to suit the student’s ability and level of progress always ensuring one leaves challenged and encouraged to persevere.

Simon is committed, enthusiastic and passionate about what he does which is infectious and I highly recommend him as a tutor.”
