MICHAEL MCALEAVY
Guitarist and Tutor
About Me
I’ve been playing guitar for over 20 years and teaching for the last 10. My lessons are all about helping you build confidence, understand the fretboard, and actually enjoy the process of learning guitar. Whether you’re a complete beginner or an experienced player, lessons are tailored to your goals and ability.
Experience
I hold a degree in music and currently teach guitar at Jamm Studios in St Helens. Over the years, I’ve performed at weddings and events across the UK, and I’ve taught everyone from complete beginners to advanced players looking to refine their skills.
I also run a YouTube channel focused on guitar and music theory, where I break down complex ideas in a simple, practical way. You can visit my channel here or check out some of the lovely comments and feedback on my Socials page!
Styles I Teach
I teach a wide range of styles, including pop, rock, and blues, with a particular love for jazz, funk, and soul. Lessons can focus on rhythm playing, lead guitar, improvisation, songwriting, or simply learning your favourite songs, whatever keeps you motivated and inspired.
Having also studied classical guitar, I’m highly skilled in fingerstyle playing as well as using a pick, giving you the flexibility to develop
strong technique in any style.
What You’ll Achieve
You’ll gain a clear understanding of how the guitar works, improve your playing technique, and develop your own style. More importantly, you’ll feel confident picking up the guitar and knowing exactly what to do, whether you’re playing for fun, performing, or writing your own music.
