Hello, I'm Luke

Teaching is one of my passions, and I love it. I've been a recording and performing musician for 24 years, I have a degree in music composition and education, and I've taught for 18 years, the last 10 of them privately in London. I also speak Spanish.

How a visit works

  1. Luke, seen from behind with his guitar case, rings the bell at a blue front door.
    I arrive at your home at your regular weekly time.
  2. A child, seen from behind, sits at an upright piano while Luke turns to her and points to the music.
    Piano with one child.
  3. A child with a small guitar sits opposite Luke, who is playing guitar too.
    Then guitar with their brother or sister, in the same visit.
  4. A child, seen from behind, holds up a phone to film Luke playing guitar.
    Before I go, we can record a short practice video on your phone.

Who I teach

  • Children from 4.

    A course in five stages: music games, rhythm, technique, the songs they love, then theory and writing their own music. Piano from 4, guitar from 6.

    Lessons for children →
  • Teenagers.

    Technique, songs and theory, and whatever excites them most, whether that's playing in a band, writing their own music or working towards exams.

  • Adults.

    Complete beginners to advanced players. Rock, folk, funk, jazz or classical, built around the music you love.

  • I have experience teaching neurodivergent children, and children who are anxious or didn't click with a previous teacher. I adapt the pace and approach until they feel comfortable and confident.
  • Exam preparation for ABRSM, RSL and Trinity at any grade.
  • I also teach bass guitar, oboe, and composition and songwriting.
  • Teenagers and adults can have lessons online on Google Meet.

Lucas has been teaching my 8 year old boy guitar for 6 months now and honestly we couldn't be happier. [My son] looks forward to his lessons every week and Lucas' song suggestions are always curated for him. I sometimes join in and it's become a really lovely bit of time with my son. He get more confident on the guitar every session and in himself too. We're so grateful for you Lucas, thank you!

Parent of an 8-year-old guitar student

Lucas has been teaching my 9 and 12 year olds guitar for about a year now and my little boy, who never wanted to do any lessons for anything, actually looks forward to his class. They were both complete beginners when they started and are now playing full songs that they love. My boy took to the acoustic guitar more naturally, and my girl is rocking on the electric guitar. Lucas is consistent and reliable, kind and warm. Thank you! Looking forward to all that’s to come!

Parent of two guitar students, aged 9 and 12

Our daughter really enjoys guitar lessons with Luke and looks forward to them each week. He is very engaging and tailors the lessons to her. She’s not only learning the guitar but also becoming increasingly confident as a result

Parent of a young guitar student

I’ve been taking bass guitar lessons with Lucas as a beginner, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. He has a true gift for teaching. From day one, he made me feel comfortable and never made me feel rushed or overwhelmed. He explains everything in a way that’s easy to understand, and he has an incredible patience for beginners. What really stands out is how quickly I’ve been able to progress under his guidance. He has a genuine gift for breaking things down and making learning fun. Highly recommend!

Adult bass student, beginner

I am on my second year of piano lessons and loving it! I’ve learnt a lot and feel very comfortable in the classes. I used to drop out easily and feel quickly frustrated when learning something new but Luke keeps me motivated throughout the way. I am enjoying it a lot. Highly recommend these classes :)

Adult piano student, second year

Luke has been teaching me to play piano as a beginner. The classes are great - fun, engaging and I feel I learn a lot. Luke is very encouraging and patient. I would really recommend him!
