Gary Cain

“I dont think anyone could go wrong with lessons from Gary, just listen to his playing! Of course, many can play well but not all can teach. Understanding what a person needs at a particular part of their development as a musician is what Gary can help you with. He has a very calm and measured approach to then getting you on your way without being overwhelmed. The advice on how to optimise your practice is also laid out by Gary and the approach is rooted in what neuroscience currently recommends. If you're on the fence, don't 2nd guess, get stuck in :)” - Paul

Book a guitar lesson with Gary Cain

Thanks for your interest in guitar lessons!  When you click the link above you'll be directed to a few options and be able to schedule a time with me.  Keep in mind I am in the UK, so make sure your time-zone is selected before booking :)  After booking you will receive an email with a link to the Google Meeting - if you don't see it, please check your spam folder.

Lessons are £50/hour or £35/half-hour, or you can save some dough by purchasing a package of 4 lessons at a time.  Every other week is probably a good pace if you are practicing regularly - if you want to go weekly, you better be putting in the work! :)

I recommend you have a notebook (preferably with some blank chord diagrams), an open mind and open ears.  You are also welcome to record the lessons for your own private reference only.  Please turn off noise cancellation - it will choke off your guitar and I won't be able to hear you play.  To do this in Google Meet, go to Settings > Audio > and toggle off “Noise Cancellation”.

How often should you practice?  The most important thing is to do it as close to daily as you can.  7 shorter sessions in a week beats 1 marathon day.  Be careful overdoing it on new techniques as usually injuries happen when you do something your hands aren't used to for too long.  And cut yourself some slack - we're all hyper-critical of our own playing.  The important thing is that you are moving forward - nobody ever gets to the end (and that's a good thing!)

I look forward to working with you :)

-Gary
