Don is a fantastic guitar teacher who has been teaching me since 2014, when I was 9 years old. He has a refined teaching process that allows students to learn guitar effectively and also have fun during the process. His extensive knowledge of practical and theoretical elements allows anyone to learn guitar in an understandable manner. Even after all of these years, Don continues to help further enhance my technique and challenges me to keep improving. I still highly enjoy playing the guitar and furthering my theoretical knowledge. I would recommend Don to anyone who wants to learn guitar!

Don provides comprehensive and highly engaging teaching in guitar and music theory. He has a vast knowledge of music that he is only too keen to pass on to his students. Don’s method of teaching guitar is to focus on the fundamental techniques that form the building blocks for more advanced applications, thus ensuring his students receive more diverse teaching in guitar methods. Don's good humour ensures every lesson is enjoyable and entertaining. I first started lessons with Don four years' ago in-person, having never held a guitar before. The ability to conduct on-line lessons has been tremendous. I started lessons with Don in-person and have since had the ability to continue learning using on-line lessons for the past 2 years after I moved out of Melbourne. I couldn't recommend Don more highly to both beginners and advanced students.

When I retired 10 years ago, never having played a musical instrument, I decided to take piano lessons with Jenny. Up until Covid, the lessons were in person, but for the past couple of years, over Zoom. Jenny is that rare thing - an excellent teacher. Sure, she plays beautifully herself but, more importantly, she knows how to teach and understands how students learn. Wherever you're at with a piece, she gives clear suggestions on how to make maximum progress. Jenny also has high standards. I find it unusual, but refreshingly good, to work with a teacher who has high standards. Can't make your lesson time? I've never known a teacher to go to such lengths to fit you in another time. Zoom has worked fine. For me, there's no noticeable difference between face-to-face and Zoom. Except I save on travel time. I thoroughly recommend Jenny as a piano teacher.

I have been taking guitar lessons with Don for a bit over two years now. Don is extremely knowledgeable in all things music - theory, music history, and especially guitar. He is an excellent and observant teacher and has an ability to provide targeted feedback that pin points areas where development is needed. I didn’t have much playing experience previously and very little theoretical knowledge (only tabs and chord charts) but now I am able to read music and I am learning a solid theoretical foundation that I can apply directly to my playing. With many thanks to Don, I am finally making progress in playing and understanding guitar after dabbling around the fringes for so long. I’d never imagined I would feel this comfortable playing guitar. Don also helped me to select and purchase a guitar that suits my needs (I would have been completely lost without his help!) and he is the first I would ask about any musical equipment as he always provides trustworthy and sound advice. I’d definitely recommend Don!

Jenny Ford is a teacher I highly respect. I have achieved my greatest progress in piano throughout the past two years in Jenny's class . The classes and practice content provided are well structured with clear direction. It is easy to practice and improve with such clarity. The passion is clear every week when I am given insight into the different varieties of music. We cover how cultural and historical influences shape music and the various styles that have been produced by past composers. This passion is infectious and has completely changed the way I look at music. The classes are fun, calm and a pleasure to be apart of. I would highly recommend Jenny to anyone who is serious about taking their piano to the next level.
