Guitar Tuition in
Stockport, Manchester &
New Mills
Welcome
Hi there! My name is Andy Rees and I’m a Stockport, Greater Manchester and New Mills 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!

Andy DavisonMy 15 year old son has very recently started guitar lessons with Andy and already Andy has impressed us. My son is working towards his grade 5 and Andy was able to quickly work out strong points and areas to focus on, whilst having a very patient and calm manner, which my son certainly needs! Andy is also clearly a very talented musical himself and I would certainly recommend him to anyone.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
Geoff FaulknerI have been with Andy for quite a while having a 1 hour lesson each week and am enjoying every minute of my time with him. Andy is an extremely talented musician in his own right and his easy, relaxed and patient manner of teaching makes the whole learning process a pleasure. Long may his good humour continue!

Callum LyonsBeen taking lessons with Andy for almost two years now after eight years of teaching myself. I’ve learned more in these two years than I did in all those eight... which says everything about Andy’s teaching style. He keeps it fun and pushes you the right amount. I always look forward to every lesson (and having a laugh). Highly recommend.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
Alan SmithHi, I learned to play guitar about 30 years ago, late in life as I am now 77. I would recommend Andy for his gemtle but demanding teaching manner. I have had lessons with him for about a year and a half and after every lesson I go home to my wife and say that was another good lesson. He is always encouraging and has taught me so much with new songs and techniques. Apart from all this he is an excellent guitar player.

Clive StubbingsI really enjoy my guitar lessons with Andy. He's patient and knowledgeable and it's fun and hard work at the same time - which is just what I want.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
katya willemsAndy is a fabulous teacher. I'm learning classical guitar and it's great fun. I love that Andy has asked me to share my own Spotify playlist with him so we can learn how to play some of my favourite songs - it makes it so much more enjoyable 👍. He really knows his stuff and creates such a friendly, encouraging environment to learn in - I highly recommend Andy.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
Adam CornerBrilliant guitar teacher. Explains everything at a great pace. Wont stress you out if you haven't had time to work on a piece, which is great for busier folk like myself. Overall great guy, no complaintsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
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.
