Natasha's feedback about Vince (Beginner Mandolin tuition near Wolverhampton)
I've had a great four months learning mandolin with Vince. Coming to our lessons a complete beginner, Vince has truly helped me to harness a new, passionate hobby of mine. Lessons are tailored to what I've expressed interest in and to learning new techniques- such as tremelo, or hammer ons. So far, we've explored the musical genres of Bluegrass, Blues Spirituals, Scottish Jigs and English Folk- such a versatility in Vince's repertoire! Yet, lessons never feel rushed, and Vince delivers the hour with such a genuine love of music and breadth of knowledge (in music theory too!) , but everything is set in context, so nothing seems overwhelming or daunting. Plus, Vince is such a pleasant and patient person, so everything is taken at your speed and sometimes paired with interesting little tibit, anecdote or recommendation for an artist to listen to! Also, very responsive and timely- either email or in whatsapp.I also chose to learn with Vince because of his commitment to thorough and detailed notes. This works really well for me as he recaps each of our lessons, reviews what went well and what I could look at for future playing, and provides all the tablature and chords- even creating his own on the spot at times! This has really improved my playing, and in turn, my own confidence and commitment to the instrument. Thanks so much Vince!

Great tutor. Explained everything perfectly and then showed me in details what I needed to do. Very pleasant and extremely knowledgeable. More than happy with the lesson.
Nick's feedback about Vince (Beginner Mandolin tuition near Kidlington)
I am a beginner/improver on the mandolin and have been having weekly lessons with Vince for just over 3 months. I am really pleased with how they're going. I was looking for a tutor for whom the mandolin was a primary instrument, which is the case with Vince, rather than an add-on. This has the benefit of allowing me to learn from the intuition he has developed from playing in solo and in bands over many years. While the lessons are relaxed, he pushes me along all the time, showing the possibilities that pieces offer for further development, even when some of the techniques will need a few months' more practice to become fluent. He is unfailingly encouraging and patient. I find each lesson fun and enlightening, and feel highly motivated to practice in between each session. Being at different ends of the country, the lessons have all been over Zoom. I was a bit concerned about how that would actually work but have been very pleasantly surprised by their smoothness - even playing pieces together has been possible without any glitches. In summary, I am very happy to recommend Vince unreservedly.
Peter's feedback about Marcus (Beginner Mandolin tuition near Benfleet)
Really enjoyable and informative first lessons. On the face of it, I thought that transferring from fiddle to mandolin should be fairly straightforward with the similarities. Clearly I have much to learn and am looking forward to the challenges under Marcus’s expert guidance.
Kathy's feedback about Tom (Beginner Mandolin tuition near Much Wenlock)
I started learning mandolin at start of lockdown. I have had 3 online lessons with Tom and am really pleased with the quality of his teaching. He has quickly assessed the level I'm at and is offering just the right challenges to work on in the week. I feel I'm already making progress. Tom is very pleasant, polite and cheerful. He has a positive, friendly and encouraging manner. He explains things clearly and carefully and makes sure I have understood before moving on. I would highly recommend him.

Jane's feedback about Marcus (Beginner Mandolin tuition near Benfleet)
Setting up my lessons was a breeze as Marcus answered straight away. I'm really enjoying my lessons and have already made more progress than I expected to in the first few weeks. Marcus has responded thoughtfully to what I want out of the lessons, is very patient and has given me a range of materials to practise from at home. :)
