Ben Siddall Music

General information

I teach Guitar (electric, acoustic, classical); Bass Guitar, Ukulele and Music Theory privately to a variety of students of all ages and abilities on a one-to-one basis. I have a 100% pass rate in ABRSM, Trinity Rock and Pop and Rockschool graded examinations. I have a large archive collection of songs and riffs of many styles and can also transcribe music by ear in the lesson.

My youngest pupil is 5 and my oldest is over 80 years old - you're never too old to pick up an instrument for the first time!

Lessons are based in my teaching room at my house in the Clarendon Park area of South Leicester. Additionally I can provide lessons via the internet using Skype.

I am fully CRB/DBS checked, have full Public Liability Insurance and am a member of the Musicians Union.

Recording studio, online mixing and songwriting/industry advice also available.
