Janice's feedback about Richard (Beginner Bagpipes tuition near Manchester)

I contacted Richard to arrange a surprise birthday gift for my husband, who recently took up the bagpipes again after a 59-year hiatus. Richard responded to my emails promptly, explored ways to help me get set up with First Tutors, and we had a long and lovely conversation about his teaching approach and methodology. He is clear, understanding, and flexible. My husband has since begun lessons with Richard, and from what I’ve heard – both the sound of the practising pipes and his own enthusiastic comments – things are going very well!

Leila's feedback about Jason (Beginner Bagpipes tuition near Inverness)

I had a trial lesson with bagpipes. It was great! We met in a park, and first, Jason gave me an interesting introduction. He knows a lot about bagpipes. Then, I could try it myself. Jason was very friendly and patient. It was a lot of fun.

Laura's feedback about Richard (Beginner Bagpipes tuition near St. Asaph)

We’ve only had one session with Richard so far. Richard was very friendly and put my daughter at ease. She’s 8 and Richard tailored the session so she could get the most out of it and felt a sense of achievement. Richard also picked up on her signals and knew when to stop the session. We’re very much looking forward continuing our learning journey together.
