Matt Dixon
Guitar Teacher
“John Calcott was my guitar teacher from the age of 9 until I finished sixth form at 18. He was friendly, down to earth and incredibly patient considering I did minimal practice!
I'm now a guitar teacher as my main job and I've got John to thank for ending up in a career I love. "
Kieran Gunter
Professional Guitarist
"John Calcott taught me guitar between the age of 13-16 and he was a big factor in me getting into jazz guitar which later saw me go on to study jazz at the Leeds conservatoire. He also aided me with notation reading which has lead to me playing in musicals over the country and being booked for session work."

“John is an incredible teacher, within sixth months he took me from being a student who scraped a pass at grade 8 to being a student who got a distinction in my diploma.”
Jess Orestano
Studio Mastering Engineer
“John taught me electric guitar as a teenager. His lessons were always laid back and fun and he gave me the confidence to try new things.
Thanks to Johns support, I have played in bands and ensembles as well as teaching guitar myself! The skills I learned with John equipped me for life.”
