Learning to play guitar has been a long term goal of mine. With Daniel Mahler Music tutoring has helped me to understand the fundamentals of music theory of the guitar, which has aloud me to become more confident when playing along to backing tracks and helped me to become more creative with guitar soloing and songs I’ve always wanted to learn. Dan's lesson plans have given me more insight to where I needed improving. Which has put me on the right track to perfecting my guitar technique. I have noticed a major change in my playing since beginning with Dan's teachings.

Jazz is tough! But Daniel has been a great teacher, encouraging, patient and trying his best to convey the intricacies of this style. I enjoy the focus on foundations and repertoire work. I feel Daniel has a good flexibility with his teaching style. He has students from different age groups, kids in schools and older students and is still able to adapt to diverse needs. He has incredible playing skills and also tries to transfer them as techniques that I myself can use. Highly recommend for anyone looking to learn.

Really enjoy working with Dan, not only is he a great musician, he is able to translate the language of jazz in an understandable way. He teaches with mix of applied theory and lots of playing, so learning is really enjoyable and the lesson time flys by. Highly recommended

I have been taking guitar lessons from Daniel since the beginning of the year and am thoroughly enjoying it. As an adult student it was really important for me to find a teacher that is respectful of adult learners and also understands what I want to gain personally from learning the guitar. Daniel is an impressively skilful and knowledgeable musician who is happy to share his talent. He understands that my kind of music is sometimes not what younger students enjoy playing so he has incorporated my favourite songs into my learning. I would highly recommend Daniel and have already shared his details to friends. I look forward to continuing my guitar journey with Daniel!

My 10 yr old has been having bass guitar lessons with Daniel for 6 months now and absolutely loving it. He is learning so much from Daniel with his fantastic way of teaching. We feel very lucky to have found him as our son's music teacher and would highly recommend him!

“As a self taught guitarist of 20+ year, I was missing some foundation music theory knowledge and decided to take up some lessons. Within a few months Daniel has helped me build up the fundamentals and apply this directly to the guitar in a practical way, which has connected the dots and given me a new understanding of my instrument. Daniel always comes prepared with learning materials and a knack for explaining each concept, and demonstrates how to apply things in a musical context. I’m really enjoying his approach to teaching”
