Fun & amazing - C.Smith age 10

28-12-2014 by Janine

Glen is the most funny, crazy and amazing guitar teacher. He has taught me so much songs. He makes me think that it is possible that I will become a famous guitar player in a band. I am going to miss him very much, but I hope one day we will meet again and he will be in the front row of the stage. I think he is a very good player and even though he doubts that he can sing I think he is a great singer. He is very kind for giving me hot chips at lunch and he never forgets my birthday, even though I don’t deserve it he also buys me a little present for my birthday. He always makes me happy and he can always tell a joke.

Dedicated & Passionate

Glen and Janine are dedicated and passionate about their music, which is infectious and inspiring. Our 12 year old daughter Jordan and 9 year old son Kade have been learning guitar under Glen for the past 4 years and have improved dramatically. They both enjoy their music, with Jordan receiving a Music Scholarship for Secondary College late last year based on her talent with guitar. Recently we purchased a new Gibson guitar for our daughter, with Glen & Janine giving much of their time to help research, including Glen travelling to Melbourne with us to view before buying. Glen has also taken Jordan busking at a local market on a Sunday morning, purely for the experience. The guitar concerts which have been organised by Glen & Janine the past two years have been an absolute success, whilst providing entertainment for the audience and a huge confidence booster for the students. Glen and Janine are held in very high regard by our family and we recommend X10SIV Guitar Tuition to all aspiring guitarists. You won’t regret it!!!!!!!!
