I have worked with Joe for about a year now and found him to be knowledgeable and motivational. He is patient and responsive to individual needs. He also has a great sense of humour and makes learning a lot of fun.

I would recommend Joseph for his skills, loyalty and holistic approach to learning. Have fun!

Lovely person, great teacher and highly recommended!

Joe has a lovely way of communicating, he breaks down the complicated bits in a way I can understand and has endless patience. You can easily see his love for music and teaching

I have known Joseph for over 15 years and have played along side him in multiple bands over the years and will undoubtedly say he is one of the most professional and proficient musicians I have had the pleasure of playing with. He is an excellent listener and has a lot of patience so to be taught by him would be an absolute dream.

Joseph is empathetic and understanding towards all levels of knowledge on music theory and practice, be it absolute beginner or intermediate. He is also interested in differing styles and methods of playing compared to the classical and rigid ways often found in Music circles.

I found Joseph through a friend of a friend. He's a really great tutor and very accommodating to my level. I just wanted to pick up on drum lessons after having a few, years ago, and Joseph was just very natural in helping me pick it up again. He's all round, a very efficient and effective communicator, helping me understand details on where to improve. I'm going to be having regular sessions.

I've learned so much from studying alongside Joseph over the last year. He is patient, dependable, and always generously shares his knowledge. It's been really exciting to see how his enthusiasm for the things he cares about rubs off on others. Crucially he's also just really fun to be around - a real gem of a person!

I hired Joe to teach my 10y/o son how to play the guitar and Omg he is amazing! The patience and care he has shown my Leo over the last year has been incredible! His confidence has grown tremendously and I can’t thank Joe enough for that :) great teacher and I highly recommend

I recently started tutoring sessions with Joseph in English, Math, and later in Social Sciences.

I’m thrilled with the progress I’m making so far. As someone who’s wasn't too confident subjects, I was worried about falling behind, but my tutor has been incredibly supportive and patient.

Each session is well-organized, and my tutor does an excellent job of breaking down complex topics into manageable parts.

In English, I’ve gained confidence in my reading and writing skills, thanks to the clear explanations and helpful feedback.

Math, which I used to find intimidating, is now starting to make sense, and I’m finally understanding concepts that used to confuse me.

Social Science has become so much more interesting—I’m learning how to connect the dots between historical events and current issues.

What really sets my tutor apart is his ability to make each lesson engaging and relevant. He uses real-world examples and interactive activities that makes learning not only easier but I can apply them to real
world examples.

I never feel rushed, and there’s always time to ask questions and review anything I’m unsure about.

Overall, I’m really happy with the tutoring I’m receiving. It’s made a huge difference in my understanding and confidence across all three subjects. I highly recommend this tutor to anyone who’s just starting out and wants to build a strong foundation in these areas.

Joe is a great teacher. He’s very patient and kind. He is also fun and relax which really help you as a student. I would certainly recommend getting in touch with him if you’re thinking of learning guitar.
