Jo Bywater Guitar Tuition Bewertungen 

Jo is creative, clear, patient and kind. She has a true mastery of the instrument and a talent for breaking it down into easy to practice and digest modules.

I'm in my mid 70's & have been dabbling with my guitar since COVID, I'd got to the stage that I could strum a few popular ballads while I sang along but I knew I was only scratching the surface of guitar play. After looking at many of the teachers on YouTube, I decided to solicit her help with my learning.
Jo very quickly established where my playing skills were at & guided me through what I needed to do with one of the songs I liked to play so that I'd be confident to play it in any company, within reason!. Where my playing goes from here is going to be relative to my skill & my commitment to practice. I'm confident that Jo has the knowledge, skill & patience to help me to play reasonable guitar once I do the learning & practice.
I highly recommend Jo to anyone needing help with their guitar playing.

My daughter has been having lessons from Jo for several years now. During this time she was diagnosed with autism and struggled with social anxiety. She enjoys her lessons with Jo and has developed so much during this time, so much so that last year my daughter had the confidence with Jo’s help to play with a family friend in a talent competition for her inclusion football club, she would not have been able to do this without Jo’s help and guidance.
I would highly recommend Jo to anybody looking for a teacher.
Thanks Jo.

Jo is a great teacher, endlessly patient with my attempts to play guitar. I'm a beginner guitarist, only starting in my late 70s, so patience is necessary! She always works at my pace, encouraging and guiding - and helps me find ways to work around (hands aren't as stretchy as they used to be....). I wasn't sure if I'd enjoy guitar when I started, but Jo has really helped me to get loads of pleasure out of it - as well as learn some music theory in the process - so I look forward to her lessons.

After learning a lot from Jo’s YouTube channel I booked a series of online lessons. Jo guided me through the Grade 3 London College of Music exam. Each half-hour lesson was well structured to cover each part of the syllabus. Her calm and encouraging approach gave me the confidence to think beyond the exam and develop my musicianship. The result was that I passed the exam with a distinction. I would recommend Jo’s lessons whatever your focus is or level of ability.

Jo Bywater is an excellent teacher. She allows me to learn in a fun and stress-free way. Personal online sessions are perfectly informative and easy. I highly recommend Jo Bywater for guitar lessons.

I would highly recommend Jo if you are thinking of guitar lessons. My son has been having lessons with Jo for years. He has come on really well.

I have been having guitar lessons with Jo for a few years now and have found Jo to be an excellent and patient teacher. As an adult returning to music lessons I felt a bit nervous but Jo instantly made me feel at ease. I’ve had lessons with Jo both in person and online and have found both formats accessible and enjoyable. Jo has helped me to make noticeable progress over the years, including becoming more proficient with barre chords, and I now have a large catalogue of songs, spanning multiple genres, that I can return to and play. I’d recommend Jo to anyone that’s thinking of taking up guitar lessons!

I have been studying w/ Jo asynchronously for the better part of a year. She has helped me develop practice skills and prioritize practice goals, and the progress is marked. I greatly appreciate Jo’s communication style and willingness to help me work through struggles. Outstanding.

Jo is such an amazing teacher. She has taught my son guitar since he was seven - he is now nearly 16 - and in that time he has got a music place at school and chosen to do GSCE Music. Jo has always gone above and beyond as a teacher - looking out for Tom and course correcting him if he ever needed it, while also being kind, supportive and a great friend. Would recommend 100%.

Brilliant guitar lessons. Easy to follow with excellent content.

Jo has been teaching our daughter to play the guitar for around 6 yrs,we had to switch to Skype when Covid hit the world but she was brilliant+helped Maggie to adapt!!Maggie has Autism,Cerebral Palsy+very low self esteem+confidance but Jo has given her the tools to not only learn to play acoustic+electric guitars she also taught her to read music too+gave her self belief!!Maggie is now 16+has decided to join a local music school to gain some social skills,we are extremely thankful for all Jo’s help+guidance over the years,anyone who is looking for a tutor we highly recommend Jo

Jo is the one of the best and professional tutors out there! I had zero confidence when I first started learning guitar and struggled with finger coordination along with just learning to play a song in general. After a month I was able to switch between chords at ease, coordination improved dramatically and I can pick up on the rhythm of songs and chord changes much better in songs.

Jo has provided me with an excellent learning experience. She has enabled me to progress my guitar journey with patience and a wealth of knowledge. As a blind guitarist she has asked me at every stage, what would work for me, how can she help me get the most out of our lessons. I look forward to our lessons and being a better guitarist with the help of Jo.

I first met Jo when my daughter took an interest in playing guitar when she was around 6 years old. Given my daughter was so young at the time, I wanted to be present while she got started with the lessons which Jo welcomed and accommodated. They quickly formed a great friendship and I soon felt comfortable leaving her under Jo’s supervision.
My daughter plays guitar for enjoyment and I think Jo’s kindness and patience has contributed to her passion for wanting to play.
Jo has been a great role model in her life and I’m grateful for all the time they have spent together ❤️

My son’s been learning from Jo for a year now. These are his words: “Jo has lots of humour. She teaches guitar with an even split of fun and learning. She teaches well and always gives tips on how to do better when I do things even slightly wrong. You can see the passion in her and definitely doesn’t teach only for money. She always encourages me to go on further even when I am a bit tired.”

Jo has been teaching my 16 year old son to play guitar since the start of the year, she has been very patient and supportive with him as he has never played the instrument before. She put my son at ease from his first lesson and he speaks very highly of Jo. We would definitely recommend her as she is one of the best teachers out there.

Jo is amazing with my 16 yr old son who is autistic with learning disabilities!
She has patience and is so kind. Every lesson is tailored to his needs.
He feels like a rock star 🌟
Thank you Jo 🤗

Jo is a brilliant teacher, having done much research on instructors/teachers online Jo stood out to me and I am glad I reached out. Having never played guitar before, her patience, care and time during my sessions was more than I could have hoped. Jo has excellent communication and is generally such a nice, polite and inspiring teacher.

I have been a student of Jo’s for several years now, and I couldn't be happier with the progress I've made as a guitarist. Throughout the years, she has consistently demonstrated unwavering patience as I stumbled through chords, struggled with complex melodies, and forgot various scales. I always feel that I can ask questions without hesitation and make mistakes without feeling discouraged. After transitioning from in-person to online lessons during and after Covid, she has shown flexibility in different lesson formats. She tailors lessons to my needs, ensuring a comfortable pace while continually challenging myself. Jo's teaching is exceptional and I highly recommend her to anyone who wants to learn.
