John's feedback about Melanie (Beginner Mandolin tuition near Stourbridge)

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.

Lydia's feedback about Martha Polly (Beginner Mandolin tuition near Sowerby)

I really enjoyed having Polly as a teacher! As a beginner I was slightly nervous but she made me feel completely at ease and was very clear and patient. Highly recommend!!

Rosemary's feedback about Vince (Beginner Mandolin tuition near Trimdon Station)

My 1st session with Vince will be on 31st Janaury, so this review relates to the speed and helpfulness of his replies, which have been excellent.

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.
