News
Everything Holistic
As we are aware of the current situation of Covid 19. Let me firstly say a huge thank you to our NHS staff and Key Workers!
We are all getting used to this way of living, but this virus does not stop us from being creative!
By following the government guideline, if it is ok with your household, I will be able to teach in the garden, in a safe and social distanced way.
Making sure that we are both safe by washing our hands regularly, wearing the appropriate PPE (Mask and Gloves)
For your safety, you must provide your own guitar
However, if you do not feel comfortable with this, I can do Zoom sessions too
Let's all stay safe and healthy!
Together, we can beat the virus.
Due to another national lockdown I will be taking my classes virtually on Zoom. Please make sure you can have access to remote learning a computer and internet connection to continue learning, I hope to add some free resources in the near future.
Testimonials
My teacher Lucy is very good and helps me when i'm stuck on things. Lucy is helping me to improve in my guitar lessons and we try something new in the music theory every week and I enjoy it. between us too, we always have a laugh together and can't wait to start to write songs and sing them
With quite a bit of extra spare time, I thought I'd finally try to learn playing guitar. Lucy made it super easy to understand and grasp and even though zoom, it still felt really personal. Lucy was patient with me and is really helping me progress.
