About the Tutor:
I am 64 and now on 11 months leave before retiring. I have worked as a nurse and mental health nurse for 44 years. Work aside I have also taught and played guitar and bass for many years, playing in bands, learning classical guitar, and writing quite a few songs. I have tended to play all styles of guitar, rock, folk, classical, blues, slide.I ran a music group at the rehabilitation unit for mental health at TPCH for the last 5 years, and did quite a bit of group work when I taught from home years ago, taking guitar groups at the old night schools, so looking forward to getting started again.
I think I`m a very patient teacher, so happy to take on all comers.
