Guitar Tuition in
Stockport & Manchester
Welcome
Hi there! My name is Andy Rees and I’m a Stockport / Greater Manchester based music tutor who specialises in electric guitar, acoustic guitar and bass guitar tuition as well as music theory tuition.
I provide tuition in person at my teaching studio in Stockport and online via Zoom video call.
I teach various styles of music such as Pop, Rock, Folk, Blues, Metal and more. I teach several accredited syllabuses that can support your development as a musician and which can be used alongside GCSE and A level music courses to help you gain the qualifications you need. Additionally, they can also help you gain UCAS points for university entry! There are also many other proven benefits to learning to play a musical instrument including improvements to mental health, general stability, confidence and social growth.


So, no matter your age, gender, or lifestyle there is always something you can learn within music and a good reason to learn it!
I hope to see you soon!

Jonathan SleeAndy is a fabulous teacher. He's been teaching my 14 year old son electric guitar for about 10 months, and he is loving the lessons. Andy's got a great relaxed and patient teaching style which works really well. My son has made massive progress since he started with Andy and he comes back from the lessons super enthusiastic about playing and practising. Andy's brilliant at selecting songs that keep him interested but also provide challenge and learning opportunities. Hugely recommend.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
Gordon BroadyIt’s 9 months since I posted a review and as an update I’ve recently seen the benefit of following a music syllabus with Andy and elected to take a grading this spring. I had found myself being sidetracked between lessons but thankfully Andy saved the day and provides me with real time feedback on what I am doing and helps me focus on what I need to work on. I occasionally have zoom lessons which work equally well when I can’t get to the studio in person. I have had a few significant light bulb moments this year which is definitely down to Andy’s knowledge, skilled approach to teaching and love of music. As he says music should be fun. I am definitely enjoying guitar more since starting lessons and feel that I’m making progress. Having recently retired, I started having lessons last year, and am very glad to have chosen Andy Rees as my tutor. He has patiently helped me address technique problems, understand the construction of songs and explain the underlying music theory in a laid back way . Additionally he is an incredible musician and uses his skills to back up and encourage my initial attempts at improvisation. I can thoroughly recommend Andy if you are looking for a guitar tutor.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
StevemgI'm an older student (in 40's) and do not have a musical back ground but guitar is something I always wanted to give a go. I have been having lessons with Andy every few weeks and have noticed a progression even though I do not commit as much time as I 'd like. Andy is patient and I never feel pressured but he also drives the improvement. A nice bloke also! I'm glad I selected him to learn.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
Theodore LewthwaiteAndy is a great teacher and he is passionate about music and his teaching. He is very patient, makes the lessons fun and is keen for you to play the music that you love. I always leave my lesson fired with enthusiasm to play more guitar!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
stuart priceI’ve been seeing Andy for Guitar lessons for around 6/7 months now and he has been a great inspiration to get me back playing again. His vast musical knowledge and easy-going laid-back style never puts you under pressure. He has imparted a great deal of guitar theory and I need to up my practice game to put it into practice. I would recommend Andy for any level of guitar playing as he will always have something to show you.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
Louise AnkersI've been working with and learning from Andy for a few months now. His careful and patient process has increased my love for a new instrument and I would recommend his tuition to others. Particularly like how he is interested in my own music taste so as to work on tracks I love whilst learningTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
Stealth Geek MiniaturesI genuinely can't recommend Andy enough, such an excellent and engaging teacher and genuinely all round nice guy. He is great at breaking things down and teaching different genres and giving a great selection of tunes to suit your own tastes. Within one lesson I knew straight away how much difference it had made to my playing and how quickly he was able to progress me straight away. Best decision I made was getting Andy as my teacher after a long time trying to youtube myself but getting nowhere, and I look forward to learning more and more. Thank you AndyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
hannah fosterAndy is such a wonderful teacher! I came to him with some basic skills that I wanted to grow, but such little confidence and I hated playing for people. It’s been just over a year and I’ve improved so much! I feel comfortable and confident playing in lessons and there’s no pressure. He takes everything at your pace and really takes an interest in what kind of music you want to play. I highly recommend Andy for any age and any skill level!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
Nigel ForrestAndy is a great teacher, my playing has come on leaps & bounds since I started as a beginner with him last year. He's very patient and layed back in his style, but pushes me when it's needed. It's given me the confidence to play in front of other people, which is something I couldn't have imagined when I started.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
Rich M RichHave been having electric guitar lessons with Andy for nearly a year now, he's very knowledgable and technical coupled with a pleasant and genuinely patient approach. His knowledge is broad and well practiced and his teaching technique is warm, supportive and progressive, I learn something new every time I see him. I genuinely look forward to where we will be going to in the next lesson and the new things I will learn. I can highly recommend him. Rich
