Dr Creative Guitar Lessons

Learning to play Guitar with lessons from an experienced teacher is without doubt the best way forward. Relying on books, videos and youtube can become very frustrating, especially for beginners who need the valuable one to one guidance a tutor can give. The ability to ask all the questions you need can't be underestimated, as everyone learns at different rates. A teacher can also help to correct problems, give you positive encouragement, quality instructions and practice information and help to develop your playing beyond all recognition.  Learn to solo using a complete scale repertoire:- from blues scales, major and minor scales, modes, to diminished, whole tone and Indian/eastern scales, arpeggios and more. Learn chord construction, improvisation and all the tools you need to create your own music. All that is required is that you have sufficient time to practice and the wish to improve.

A new world of music is being opened up. After just one lesson I feel like I’ve learnt so much. What a great teacher and musician Derek is. I looking forward to my next lesson.

I have just started lessons with Derek after 14 years of on/off playing. I spoke to Derek about what I wanted to focus on and from the first lesson we dived straight in. After half a lesson assessing where I was with my playing Derek new exactly where to start and what I should focus on. I haven’t enjoyed practice this much since I was a teenager. Can’t wait to get more in depth in music theory. Highly recommend Derek for all levels of students.

Derek Roberts is an extremely experienced guitar teacher and you will not find a better person to teach someone from beginner to advanced level. He specializes more in blues, pop, rock and jazz, but will give a clear path for development so you can really understand how music is made. Improvisation and feeling free to create is central to his teaching approach too.

Amazing experience! My first guitar lesson was perfect, and I'm looking forward to the next lesson. I'm profoundly dyslexic, and I had moments where my brain was slow at processing the basics...however, even though Derek didn't know this about me he slowed everything down and didn't make me feel uncomfortable in anyway! Due to Derek's patience I was able to learn a lot more. Derek helped me discover new things with my guitar playing and also gave me the spotlight to jam and practice with my new chord or notes before moving on to the next step! This really helped create a fun experience for me! Highly recommend!
