Online Group Guitar Lessons UK
Learn guitar from home with live, weekly online group lessons.
Whether you’re picking up a guitar for the first time or have been playing for a while, there’s a group to suit your level.
Beginners: Start from scratch or build on the first chords you’ve already learned, developing your skills and confidence step by step.
Intermediate players: Take your playing further with structured lessons, fresh ideas and professional guidance to help you improve, find inspiration and enjoy playing guitar more.
Lessons are built around a mix of songs, practical exercises and musical understanding to keep you motivated and help you develop as a guitarist. You’ll build your technique, explore and understand chords, scales, arpeggios and aspects of music theory. And bring it all together through performing songs in time and expressively with dynamics and also build confidence in improvisation and arrangement.
Along the way, we’ll use great songs from the classics and hopefully I will introduce you to some new music or artists too! The aim is not just to improve your playing, but to inspire you to pick up your guitar more often, try new things and enjoy playing music.
Beginners: Getting Started
Choosing your First Guitar
The good news is that you don’t need a particular type of guitar to get started. Whether you already own an electric, acoustic or classical guitar, the most important thing is simply having a guitar you can practise on.
Throughout the lessons, I’ll demonstrate songs and techniques on different types of guitar, showing you how versatile the instrument can be and how you can play a wide variety of styles on whichever guitar you have.
As your playing develops, you might find yourself wanting to explore other guitars. Many guitarists eventually own more than one, as each has its own character, sound and feel. The great thing is that guitars come in all shapes and sizes, and you don’t need to spend a fortune to find something you love.
A Clear Path to Learning Guitar
Starting out can feel overwhelming. There seems so much to learn, and although the wealth of guitar lessons and resources online is fantastic, knowing where to begin and what to focus on next can be difficult.
That’s where structured lessons make a real difference. With my experience as a guitar teacher, I’ll help you build your skills and understanding step by step, giving you a clear sense of direction as you progress. Rather than trying to learn everything at once, you can focus on the right things at the right time, build confidence and, most importantly, enjoy the process of learning to play.
Intermediate Guitarists:
Develop Your Playing Further
Whether you play electric, acoustic or classical guitar, there’s plenty to explore. The songs, techniques and musical ideas we cover will often cross over between different styles, so you can get started with the guitar you already own.
As your playing develops, you may find yourself inspired to explore other types of guitar and discover styles of music you hadn’t previously considered. I love demonstrating how different guitars can bring something new to a song and open up fresh possibilities for your playing.
Ideally, I’d love every student to experience the family of three: electric, acoustic and classical guitar. Each has its own character, sound and playing techniques, and exploring all three can broaden your musical horizons and make you a more versatile guitarist. There’s no need to own them all from the outset — it’s about discovering what each has to offer as your skills grow.
Beyond Playing: Become a More Rounded Guitarist
There’s much more to being a guitarist than learning songs. Understanding how to tune your instrument, set it up properly and choose the right equipment can make a real difference to your playing and enjoyment.
We can also explore amplifiers, effects and how to use them to shape your sound. From finding the perfect clean tone to experimenting with effects and turning up the volume, discovering how to create your own sound is one of the most enjoyable parts of playing electric guitar.
The aim is to help you become a more confident, independent and creative musician — someone who not only plays better, but understands their instrument, enjoys experimenting and feels inspired to keep discovering new things.
