I really enjoy my lessons with Luke. Being a mature student, I especially appreciate the multi-faceted approach of his teaching methods which means I have made progress in different areas of the instrument such as scales, improvisation and reading music. Luke makes sure the pace and structure of the lessons are always suited to my individual needs and progress and enjoyment go hand in hand. He has great knowledge of the instruments he teaches and makes a lovely cup of tea.
