Why choose us

Hi I’m Nick Studholme and welcome to the Cheshire Guitar School website. I am a guitar tutor based in Winsford, Cheshire.

I teach all styles of electric and acoustic guitar. I also teach bass. All lessons are customised for your specific needs and take place in a relaxed, friendly environment.

01. Passion

I love my role as a guitar tutor and I’m determined to help you get the best results from your practice. I have played in a wide variety of bands over the years, thus I have extensive gigging and studio recording experience.

02. Professionalism

I have been teaching for over 25 years throughout many schools, in partnership with the organisation Music for Life, the private primary school – The Firs and in the private music school – Tafelmusik. I am CRB/DBS checked.

03. Patience

I help beginning and frustrated guitarists achieve their goals and make fast progress. My aim is to keep frustration to a minimum and make the process as enjoyable as possible. Happy guitarists play the guitar more, so improvement tends to be faster.

02. Professionalism

04. Experience

I have extensive experience teaching students of all levels, styles and ages in a private capacity and throughout many schools.

25+

Years Teaching experience

Nick is a registered Rockschool tutor and his students currently have a 100% pass rate with at least a merit in the Rockschool guitar and bass grade exams. The higher rockschool grades are also an excellent way to pick up UCAS points.

“Couldn’t recommend Nick highly enough. As a beginner new to guitar, he has made my journey fun and productive, adapting to my needs fluidly and with knowledge that is priceless. Nick has made me comfortable and understands my needs whilst coaching me not only on the how, but the why of playing which has been the difference in me continuing to play. Looking forward to many more lessons and excited to carry on my guitar journey for years to come. Big thanks to Nick and would recommend to anyone thinking of learning guitar!”⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💻 cheshireguitarschool.co.uk#cheshireguitarschool #childrensguitarlessons #guitarlessonsforkids #guitarlessonsforchildren #kidsguitarlessons #beginnerguitar #learntoplayguitar #adultguitarlessons #beginnerguitarlessons #onlineguitarlessons #guitarlessonsincheshire #guitartuition #learntoplayguitar #guitarlessons #guitarlessons🎸 ...
