mewsie Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 well, i loved my old bass tutor. he looked like Tobey Maguire, wore odd socks and had a selection of teas. i learn pretty quick, and felt lessons were going way too slowly for me, so i stopped having them. which is now frustrating me even more. so, i'm looking for someone with a wide range of tastes, skills, and styles who will work well with my whimsical nature and push me forward. i'm available most days and evenings, and am looking for someone who is flexible enough for a lesson to be at different times each week. and probably someone who will call me to make me book a lesson, as i tend to forget that bit. i'm a good student and i promise to make you proud! x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A great player and teacher... I don't have contact details and his place might be a bit of a trek from yours (I used to go to him for lessons for a while when I lived in Silsden nr Keighley... I think he lived in the Queensbury area of Bradford... back then). He's a bit of a local legend as a teacher and player... I'm sure you can hunt his details down through local music shops. The shops in Bradford will definitely have his details. All the best, Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm the bass teacher that the previous writer mentioned. You can email me at [email protected] if you want to take lessons with me. I'm quite flexible in terms of times so that shouldn't be a problem. Do get in touch if you need further information. Pete Laffan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toasted Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 I'm one of Bren's students and I really enjoy my lessons and feel that I've come on a really long way in a really short space of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
