I have been working as a Guitar Teacher for 15 years. Trained in the Kodaly method by The DaCapo Music Foundation, my experience is wide-ranging, from taking students through formal exams to leading guitar ensembles and rock band masterclasses. I have expertise in teaching both acoustic and electric styles to children of all ages. I also teach privately and have students specialising in folk fingerstyle, rock, blues and songwriting.
I pride myself in getting the best out of my students while also keeping lessons fun and highly musical. My specialism is in folk fingerstyle guitar and guitar based composition and I am well able to adapt to the interests and ambitions of students, whether they be classical, jazz, rock or folk based. As a performer, I have appeared at some of the UK’s most distinguished venues and my music has been used on major TV channels.
Testimonials:
“Josh is very talented. He is flexible about what we play and finds things that suit my ability. He creates a fun environment to learn.” Arthur, Dulwich, 14
“Josh has been teaching my son electric and electro acoustic guitar for a year. His stimulating and relaxed approach means that I find my son plays his guitar on a daily basis just because he enjoys it, yet he is still covering quite a lot of technical stuff.” Polly
“My 12-year old daughter has been taking guitar classes with Joshua Geffin for over a year now. Previously she tried a couple of different instruments and music teachers but even though she is very musical and loves music, she would get bored and lose interest after a while. Josh’s inspirational and creative approach to teaching changed all this." Duska
