Guitar Lessons Croydon & South London

Adam has given my son a headstrong love of playing the guitar. Since starting his one on one tutorial in the year, my son has quickly gained his grade 1 with a fantastic result of a Distinction. Adam is patient and helps my sons interest by teaching current as well as timeless tunes. Very much recommended.

Whether it's a New Year resolution or just to improve yourself, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Adam Hooton guitar tuition. He takes pride in what he does and his lessons are clear and rewarding. He has wide musical knowledge and his guitar lessons are thoughtful and at the pace of the student, without pressure. My son has had lessons with Adam at school over a few years and he has gone from strength to strength - improving and loving his guitar playing.

I first had lessons with Adam when I was at college. He patiently worked with me towards my goals by setting clear objectives whilst identifying and guiding me in areas of improvement. The lessons were inspiring, tailored to my needs and were always an engaging and positive experience, helping me to rapidly progress in a short amount of time.Through the lessons I quickly gained all the tools and confidence I needed to develop my skills further as a guitar player and musician. I was opened up to a whole new world of guitar playing that I hadn’t even discovered and my own idea of guitar playing and being a musician changed, for the better, and all that I learned I still apply to my playing today whenever I pick up a guitar.Adam is one of the most technically proficient and accomplished musicians I have ever met. He has an impressive and expanding knowledge of music theory, techniques, playing styles, bands/musicians and an enthusiasm and appreciation for all music. He is a skilled teacher and has the ability to demonstrate all these qualities, which means there is plenty of fuel in lessons to advance the learning and playing of any guitarist regardless of taste or ability. Alongside all of this Adam is professional, relaxed and easy to get on with leading to instantly comfortable and productive lessons. I recommend Adam fully to anyone with an interest of learning to play the guitar and those looking to improve in any capacity as a player.

Adam is a great teacher. He helped me out with my theory, technique and we've looked at songs that he wasn't familiar with to start off with. Adam learnt them so he could teach me which was really great.

Amazing guitar player and teacher! Very patient and great at teaching all levels of guitar. Wouldn’t recommend anyone else if you're looking to learn electric guitar, acoustic or bass!

I have been taking my daughter Lucy to Adam now for nearly 3 years. In the beginning, as any parent would be, i was cautious and sat in the lessons with Lucy. I can honestly say, I felt very relaxed, confident and 100% trustworthy with Adam. His teaching skills are impeccable, he is relaxed, lets students pick what they would like to play and if it is not appropriate, his vast knowledge will choose a suitable piece to learn. If you are looking for a first class tutor, look no further as you will be looked after extremely well, young or adult. Testimony to this is that Lucy had the choice of going to BRIT school or ACM. Two of the best post 16 A Level colleges in the country. She chose ACM, as the course is more focused on guitar and she felt more comfortable. We will still be going to Adams, as Lucy will be doing her Rokschool grades, which I am confident that Adam will do a great job again.Many thanks Adamfrom a very proud father.
