TESTIMONIALS

“Thank you for your session, the children really enjoyed it”
- Emma Roberts – Year 2 Teacher, Keeble Gateway Academy, Thirsk, Yorkshire (November 2021)

“It was great to see year 8 and 9 students engaged in learning a new instrument and students who already knew how to play chords, still learning how to fingerpick and play individual pitches. It was an enjoyable day had by all. Matt was very encouraging and explained techniques clearly.”

Thank you so much, Matt – we will be booking again!”
