“Our son who is 12, started electric guitar lessons with Martin 9 months ago. He’d previously done a couple of grades on classical guitar through his school but one day he picked up an electric and that was that. He’s not interested in doing grades now, and we’re quite happy about that as he now plays just the music he likes and Martin’s style of teaching is so flexible that lessons flow.Martin continues to introduce him to new artists and always has a couple of gems up his sleeve but never pushes his ideas. He just goes with what chimes and of course he plays brilliantly himself so is very inspiring. They’ll work on pieces together and then sometimes have a little jam session where he encourages our son to free style. It’s all very relaxed and creative and our boy never feels like the lessons are a chore. We don’t even have to ask him to practice.We really rate Martin highly and our son’s progress has been remarkable. Martin is pleasant, punctual and fantastic value.”
