Hi, I’m John Kennedy.

I have been a Guitar Tutor and Musician for over 10 years, catering to a variety of ages, abilities and styles both in person and online.

I began playing guitar when I was 11 years old, and have been deeply passionate about the instrument ever since.

As well as private one-to-one tuition, I have been teaching group lessons for Primary school children as part of the Youth Music Initiative project with Dundee City Council since 2016.

I have a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Music Performance from Abertay University and a full PVG from Disclosure Scotland (available upon request).

The most rewarding thing for me is to see a student fall in love with guitar playing, to help them progress and to watch them grow in confidence.

I teach all levels, from complete beginners to experienced players - children, teens, adults - with the emphasis always on your stage of development and the goals you want to achieve.

From the basics like simple chords, reading TAB/notation, strumming patterns and flat-picking to advanced techniques such as sweeping, playing by ear and improvisation - I’ve got you covered, all while focussing on the style of music that interests you.
