I am a musician and instrumental teacher with seventeen years of experience on Bass Guitar, studied Music at University of Southampton and have been teaching both privately and in schools for the past six years.

Tutoring Experience:

All my students who have taken graded exams have passed with Merit or Distinction, and I am more than happy to assist with preparation for these. There is however no pressure to take grades, you can still improve and sound great without them!

Here is a testimonial from one of my private bass guitar students Azaria Coupe:

'David is a fantastic bass teacher, and despite my not having played before, he makes me feel comfortable with the instrument and offers encouragement at every stage. He explains techniques in a manner that makes them understandable to the non-musician, and both his patience and enthusiasm are outstanding. He balances the time spent on pieces with that on technical exercises very well. I would highly recommend Mr to anyone wishing to learn bass.'

Tutoring Approach:

I am flexible in my teaching and I can cater for all levels of playing; whether you are looking to pick up the instrument as a complete beginner or further your skills as a more accomplished player. As well as ability level I will look to focus on the desires of each student, whilst also introducing new styles of music and techniques to further their playing. Overall the aim for lessons to be enjoyable and challenging.

Styles covered:
Funk, Rock, Metal, Jazz Fusion, Blues, Reggae, Afrobeat, Pop, Soul, Motown
