Personal Description:

PLEASE NOTE: The standard lesson time is 30 minutes (£15), rather than 1 hour!
Winner of Top 3 Best Rated Music Schools (in Coventry) Four years running 2016-2017-2018-2019

Hello! My name is Spiros. I've been a full-time professional Music tutor since 2012.
I dedicate my career to making learning Music approachable and enjoyable for all of my students.

My students have reviewed me as being a 'Patient, Helpful, and Friendly' tutor, and I have received 100% 5-star feedback for all tuition to date.

I hold a 2:1 Degree in Music Technology BSc Hons from the University of Hertfordshire, and
write, record and perform original Music, and have released 3 Albums and an EP.

But enough about me, tell me about you by sending a message!

Tutoring Experience:

PLEASE NOTE: The standard lesson time is 30 minutes (£15), rather than 1 hour!

Students describe their lessons as being 'enjoyable' and 'productive'. I love forming a professional bond with students over the months, or often years, helping them to achieve their goals and enjoy great success in Music!

I offer one-to-one tuition in Vocals or Guitar; Electric, Acoustic, or Classical.
I warmly welcome absolute beginners, as well as intermediate and advanced students.
Children aged 6 and up are all welcome; and parents or guardians are also welcome to supervise lessons should they wish to.
Adult students are of course welcome too, and there is certainly no upper-age limit! I have taught adults in their teens, 20s 30s 40s 50s 60s 70s and beyond!

Tutoring Approach:

PLEASE NOTE: The standard lesson time is 30 minutes (£15), rather than 1 hour!

I provide lesson recordings, backing music, video instruction, practice plans and schedules.
The lessons are tailored to suit the student; I will work out, create, and write down Music based on what the learner wants to learn, as well as including some carefully chosen Music and exercises for the student’s current level.

Lessons are priced in advance as a block booking at an affordable rate of £60 for four 30-minute Sessions (£15 each), including original online resources and free course material.

All lessons are currently on Zoom

I want to hear from you! Feel free to send me a message to let me know;
Who is learning; yourself or a loved one.
What times suit best

I look forward to hearing from you and meeting you soon!
