Sam Treby

In my lessons, I focus on creating a structured yet flexible learning environment tailored to each student's individual needs and goals. Whether you're looking to learn a specific song for fun or you're eager to delve deep into the intricacies of music theory and technique, I’m here to guide you every step of the way. My teaching experience includes preparing students for AMEB and Trinity exams, covering advanced music theory, and developing proficiency in both treble and bass clef reading. I also place a strong emphasis on improvisation, helping you tap into your creativity and develop a deeper connection with music.

For younger students, I’ve spent years leading music programs in primary schools, where I introduce simple songs and basic guitar techniques in a fun and engaging way. I find that shorter, 30-minute lessons are ideal for younger learners, helping to maintain their focus and making the most of their time.

In addition to teaching, I bring a wealth of real-world performance experience to my lessons. I’ve gigged extensively at weddings with cover bands, and I’ve performed in a variety of settings, from big bands to small ensembles. This hands-on experience allows me to offer practical insights and advice, whether you’re looking to play casually or prepare for performances.

My lessons are designed to be both informative and enjoyable, with a focus on helping you achieve your musical goals—whether that’s mastering a favorite song, building a solid foundation in music theory, or preparing for a performance or exam. Let’s work together to unlock your full musical potential!
