Guitar Tutor in Kirkstall
Discover a guitar learning experience that’s fully personalised to your needs here in Kirkstall. I’m Huw Edwards, a professional musician and qualified guitar tutor with a degree in Popular Music from Leeds College of Music and a master’s in composition.
I work with beginners taking their first steps on the guitar as well as advanced players aiming to refine their skills or explore creative composition. Lessons are available both in person and online, with flexible scheduling to suit busy lives. Every session is designed around your goals, whether that’s mastering your favourite songs, achieving exam success, or building a foundation for songwriting. My approach ensures progress at a comfortable pace while keeping lessons engaging, fun, and highly effective.
Fuel Your Passion for Music
My teaching approach blends practical technique with musical imagination to make every lesson exciting and rewarding. I focus on understanding how each student learns best and what motivates them. Whether you want to play rock, jazz, blues, folk, pop, or experiment with your own compositions, I create lessons that highlight your strengths and nurture your musical voice.
With a commitment to personalised guidance and a 100% exam pass record, my goal is to help every student grow technically and creatively while genuinely enjoying the process. From building solid technique to performing confidently, I aim to make music a fulfilling part of your life.
I teach freelance within schools such as
Robert Ogden (National Autistic Society) and frequently run ensembles on behalf of
Rock School UK. I also run guitar skills and ensemble groups at
Leeds Junior Conservatoire. I also teach online, meaning I can work with people all around the world. Feel free to get in touch wherever you are.

My Tutoring Testimonials
RIKA
Artist
“Huw is a very thorough tutor. In the 6 months we have had lessons I have seen a great improvement in my guitar skills. I have gained confidence in playing bar chords and trying difficult pieces which I haven’t been able to do with other tutors. Even when busy, he is still super flexible and will always help work around your schedule! Huw is very professional and a great tutor.”
Samantha
“My daughter has loved having electric guitar lessons with Huw over the past two years. He is a fabulous teacher; he is patient, extremely knowledgeable and his lessons are always so well planned and structured. He is clearly very passionate about music and this is evident in his lessons and teaching style. With Huw’s support and guidance, my daughter was delighted to achieve her Grade 8 in electric guitar with a Distinction, at age 14! Thank you so much Huw.”
Rob Buttery
Teacher at National Autistic Society
“Huw has been working with 2 of my students for over a year now here at Robert Ogden School in Barnsley. They are 17- and 18- year-olds who are diagnosed with autism and have some learning difficulties. They initially started the sessions to gain a new skill as part of their Duke of Edinburgh Bronze award but enjoyed their time with Huw so much that they have carried on. Huw is excellent with both students who are very different. He is patient and considerate to their individual needs and has developed really good professional relationships during their guitar sessions. The students have progressed so well over such a short time and are even practising at home to impress their families as well. I would highly recommend Huw taking students for guitar lessons any day. Thanks again.”
