How We Help You Reach Your Goals

Other Teachers

Most teachers teach from lesson to lesson and don’t make plans to help you progress long term.


Southampton Guitar Academy

From the moment that you enroll for lessons we sit down together and make a detailed plan of your short term and longer term goals, and every few months we evaluate your progress. This helps you to make much better progress faster.

How we track your progress

Other Teachers

Most teachers won’t record a students progress, only teach songs and will often ‘wing it’ from lesson to lesson. Some teachers may even forget what they taught from lesson to lesson.


Southampton Guitar Academy

Not only do we record each and every lesson to chart your progress, but you will receive an detailed email lesson report with helpful notes on how to best practice and prepare for your next session.

How We Support You Between Lessons

Other Teachers

Most teachers only teach lesson to lesson, and the support stops once the lesson ends.
