About Skye
I have 9 years of experience teaching guitar and hold a Doctorate in Guitar Performance and Music Pedagogy. My professional background encompasses classical, contemporary, jazz, and improvisational guitar techniques, as well as advanced pedagogical methods.
I teach with patience, attention to individual learner needs, and a focus on both technical mastery and artistic expression. Lessons are structured to combine technical exercises, repertoire, improvisation, and performance preparation, providing a comprehensive musical education.
Beyond teaching, I perform professionally, attend workshops and masterclasses, and engage in research on guitar pedagogy. I am passionate about helping learners build expressive skill, technical proficiency, and creative confidence. Supporting students in discovering their musical voice and reaching their highest potential is the most rewarding aspect of my work.

Guitar lessons with me focus on developing technique, musical expression, and artistic creativity. Each student begins with an evaluation of hand positioning, finger dexterity, chord accuracy, strumming patterns, timing, and interpretive skill. This assessment allows me to design lessons tailored to each learner’s skill level, musical interests, and performance goals.
Lessons emphasise foundational techniques such as chord progressions, fingerstyle exercises, scales, arpeggios, and sight-reading. Students practise repertoire that integrates expressive phrasing, tone control, rhythmic precision, and stylistic versatility. I incorporate exercises to strengthen speed, articulation, dynamics, and improvisational creativity while maintaining musical expression.
Advanced learners work on complex pieces, solo and ensemble performance, improvisation, composition, and performance preparation. I provide continuous feedback on tone quality, musicality, technique, and interpretive nuance. Mental practice strategies, performance simulations, and constructive evaluation foster confidence, technical mastery, and expressive freedom. My goal is to help students achieve a well-rounded, expressive, and technically proficient guitar playing ability while nurturing a lifelong appreciation and love for music.
