Only had 1 lesson so far, but my daughter enjoyed it!
We've had good experiences in the past from teachers, but felt it was more result focused (ie 'let's learn to play this song'), rather than provide her the fundamentals and tools to give her better flexibility and capability to enjoy her instrument.
Campbell has taken this pre-lesson feedback on board, and is taking a more hybrid approach with my daughter - mixing necessary musical understanding with learning to play music she enjoys. Im hoping this will yield better progression for my daughter.
All good so far!
Many thanks for your kind comments Regards Campbell
From Melanie
Excellent teacher and 100% recommended

From William
Campbell was easy to get along with, considering it was my first lesson with him. He made me feel relaxed and the lesson was fun. A very informative tutor who plays an array of instruments.
I have already booked next lesson before he left. Look forward to next lesson and working my way through to being an accomplished saxophone player.
I would definitely recommend Campbell to everyone who would like a experienced and professional tutor.
Regards Will
Many thanks William Looking forward to seeing you soon Regards Campbell

From Margo
Campbell is a fantastic tutor, explains things very well and make the lessons simple to understand, I thought it would take considerably longer to get to a point where I could see progress but this happened within the first couple of lessons, great at teaching and help out-with lesson time if you have any questions, so glad we got Campbell as a tutor, he makes it simple easy and fun .
Many thanks for the kind feedback. Please keep up the good work and glad you're enjoying the lessons.
From Ryan

Many thanks and see you soon for a lesson Kind regards Campbell
From Mark
Campbell has been incredibly helpful - I've grown a lot as a guitar player since we started our lessons. He tailored the content to target my weak areas and was always happy to veer off course answering any questions I had. He was easy to contact and eager to share examples of pieces even between lessons, I'd recommend Campbell to anyone looking to improve their playing.
Many thanks for the kind comments Mark and I'm looking forward to our next lesson Regards Campbell
From Nathan

From Ryan
Campbell is a brilliant first tutor and is very patient and understanding. I would advise anyone looking for a tutor that he is a professional and that they should definitely choose him without a doubt. He takes his lessons at pace that you can manage, fast or slow. The lessons I have had with him where brilliant and I enjoyed myself so much that I give him a 5 star rating

I had my first lesson with Campbell this passed Saturday and I couldn't be happier with my experience.
Campbell is both professional and personable as a semi experienced guitar player going back to lessons to break bad habits, expand my knowledge and refine my playing, I'm looking forward to my journey over the coming months.

I booked Campbell for my girlfriend's birthday as she wanted to learn Ukulele, even though it took months for us to pick a date, Campbell was very patient with us the whole time. She has finally had her lesson and I can't recommend Campbell enough! Even though she was nervous he made her feel comfortable and confident during their lesson. We will definitely be booking again. Thanks Campbell!

From Elizabeth
My dad had his first lesson with Campbell and he felt at ease and thought he was a very good teacher. He has had a few lessons before elsewhere but said it was more about them than teaching him.
He is looking forward to his 2nd lesson which I am pleased about. Well done Campbell for making my dad feel at ease and to explain to him in a manner that he can understand. Thank you
Many thanks for your kind comments. Glad your Dad enjoyed the lesson. Campbell

My guitar tutoring sessions with Campbell are always very enjoyable and instructive. Campbell always explains things very well and gives lots of encouragement to me as a beginner. He Is a most pleasant person to have in my house, and he creates a very relaxed atmosphere for learning.
Many thanks and see you soon
From Chris
Campbell has been an amazing and insightful tutor. Considering on my first lesson with Campbell that I was a complete novice to guitar playing at any capacity, I am now able to not only play several songs but understand the basics of sheet music within just four sessions. Campbell is incredibly patient and tutors in a way that is both fun and easy follow. For the novice guitar player, as well as the more advanced, I would strongly recommend Campbell!
many thanks and see you soon
From Graeme
Campbell is an excellent teacher. He is very patient and has a good way of understanding how to teach different skill levels. You can tell he still enjoys playing which makes learning better as he is just doing it as a job .
Many thanks and see you soon
From Chris
I've had my first lesson with Campbell, and I was very nervous before it, but he was brilliant at making me feel at ease. I admit he didn't teach me to play Rodrigo's Guitar Concerto, but he did make me believe that one day I may be good enough to give it a try. I'm really looking forward to my next lesson.
Many thanks Chris and just printing off the sheet music for Rodrigo's.
From Angela
Really enjoying my ukulele lessons with Campbell, my lessons are varied and at a pace that’s perfect for me. Campbell’s patient and encouraging, I would definitely recommend him as a tutor to anyone looking to pick up an instrument.
Many thanks and see you soon
From Wendy
My boys had their first lessons today with Campbell. Both for guitar, and my eldest for Sax too. My youngest is only 6 & had never even lifted a guitar but came out after only half an hour full of enthusiasm and confidence in the 3 notes he learned. My eldest has Sax lessons once a week in school but what a difference after half an hour with Campbell. Can’t recommend him highly enough.
many thanks and glad the boys enjoyed the lessons.
From Chris
I immediately felt I was in good hands with Campbell and look forward to learning from him with great confidence.
Many thanks
From Gemma
My daughter is only 7 and she was a little nervous about going to someone’s house for lessons so it was ideal for us that Campbell would come to our house. The lesson was relaxed and fun and she is already playing a recognisable tune on her ukulele!
Thank you!
many thanks
From Jim
I have just had a very enjoyable first saxophone lesson with Campbell. As a 62 year old absolute beginner I was a bit apprehensive, however Campbell quickly put me at ease with his manner and attitude. I have been practising every day since my lesson and can produce a few notes - even a couple of recognizable bars. This is progress way beyond what I expected at this early stage. I feel enthused and am looking forward to my next lesson.
Many thanks
From Michael
On first meeting was extremely pleased with Campbell. Explained everything clearly to me . Cant wait for next lesson. Would recommend him to anyone. Delighted .
Many thanks Michael. Delighted to have you onboard and look forward to coaching you towards mastering the Alto Sax. Looking forward to our next lesson. Love to Jackie. Kind regards. Campbell
From James
I've had a few lessons from Campbell now, and it is going very well! I am a fairly experienced guitarist at intermediate level, and Campbell has been able to show me new ideas and concepts in order to improve my playing. Well recommended.
Many thanks Campbell

Appreciated prompt response from initial contact. Have now had my first ever saxophone lesson from Campbell which I really enjoyed. Found his patience and encouragement reassuring and am looking forward to my next lesson.
Many thanks for the kind comments and see you soon Kind regards Campbell
From Steven
Day one of lessons for my 10yr old girl with Campbell teaching. Campbell made the first lesson a joy fro nyhe moment he walked in the door. Campbell made Cailin feel as if he’d known her for years and not before long I could hear Cailin playing away on the Saxophone. More importantly at the end of the lesson once Campbell left I found Cailin to be even more excited about the weeks ahead playing Saxophone and that’s simply down to how easy Campbell made the lesson for her. We will be looking forward to working with Campbell and watching Cailin develop with Saxophone. Might only be the first lesson but can’t recommend Campbell enough.
Steven Lardner
Many thanks Steven for the kind feedback See you soon Regards Campbell
From John
I really enjoyed my first lesson and I am sure we'll get on great. Your obvious skills, teaching ability and patience will be tested to the limit by me. I have total confidence that you'll be able to greatly improve my music. Looking forward to my next lesson.

From Robert
Following our first lesson with Campbell both my wife and I were very impressed with not only his professionalism but his warm friendly manner. Having never read music, Campbell had us note reading in our first lesson. We very much enjoyed our time and looking forward to our next lesson. And would have no hesitation highly recommending him.
Robert & Kathy (Airdrie)

Campbell is an excellent guitar tutor! Lesson was structured, everything was well explained to make everything as simple as possible. Tried to be self taught but failed, Campbell as left me feeling confident in becoming a good guitar player after 1 lesson :)
Many thanks and see you soon Regards Campbell
From Anthony
Only had one lesson with Campbell, but I can already tell he is an excellent tutor. I have tried numerous times to teach myself guitar without any success. Campbell explains music in a way which is easy to understand and is also interesting to me. It is obvious he has a wealth of experience in many genres and will help you with stuff that you want to learn. Can't recommend him highly enough!
Many thanks Anthony When suits for your next lesson? Regards Campbell

From Jo
Campbell is an excellent tutor. He is calm encouraging and very talented. My daughter really enjoyed her first lesson and can not wait till the next one.
Many thanks. Feedback most appreciated.
From Janice
Jamie has had two lessons from Campbell and has thoroughly enjoyed every minute. Jamie is 22 and has Asperger Syndrome, so building relationships is not easy for him. However, Campbell instantly put him at ease and he has enjoyed trying out all the various techniques that Campbell has given him to practice. Campbell is always on time and well organised - coming to our house is also a huge advantage for Jamie as it means he is being taught in a familiar place. We cannot recommend Campbell highly enough.
Many thanks Janice and so glad Jamie is both enjoying his lessons and also progressing so well.
From Anthony
Miriam had her first lesson with Campbell and was very happy .Campbell was very attentive and showed a good degree of professionalism. Miriam is looking forward to her next lesson.
Many thanks for your kind comments.

Many thanks John and glad to be of help.
