Michael Thed

I offer guitar tuition to children and adults of all ages around Merton.

Tuition is not term-based and the duration varies from 30, 45 or 60 minutes.
All levels welcome from beginner to advanced, for personal enjoyment, or to those working towards grades, in individual or group basis.
Music theory is optional. However, for those wishing to go through grade examinations, good knowledge of theory is compulsory.
I teach all types of music; classical, electric, acoustic and bass guitars.

Personal Description: I have been playing guitar for around 20 years to a high level! I have performed with several bands ranging folk/oriental, rock, pop, metal and even classical music. I listen to all kinds of good music, especially jazz, classical and old school rock.

Qualifications:

High Diploma of Music and Arts (Griffith College Ireland)
BA in Music (Kingston University of London)

Tutoring Experience: I have been taught in a variety of music schools around Ireland for over three years. Additionally, I had many private students on a more casual basis. Totally I have more than 6 years of teaching experience, working with all different ages and individuals from various cultural backgrounds.

Tutoring Approach: Teaching music is a procedure that involves more than simply passing information from one individual to another. It presuppose the development of a solid communication with the student, aiming to pursue the desired goal, to improve fast and become an accurate and independent learner.

Areas I can cover: Lessons can also be given at student’s premises. I am able to travel all across Merton (particularly Morden, Mitcham, Tooting, Collier’s Wood and Wimbledon). I can consider, as well, many areas of Wandsworth (Southfields and Putney).
