Classical Guitar Lessons - Derek Hasted - Havant Hampshire
Personal tuition - Structured syllabus - Qualified & Experienced - Patient & Professional - Complete beginners welcome
I teach in Bedhampton, Havant; it's close to the A3M & A27; it's an easy journey from Chichester, Emsworth & Havant on the east, from Fareham, Cosham & Farlington on the west, from Portsmouth & Southsea from the south, and from Petersfield, Horndean, Rowlands Castle & Waterlooville from the north.
I'm close to the 21 & 23 bus stop from Havant & Portsmouth, and a short walk from Bedhampton station.

I can recommend guitars to suit every calibre of player and every pocket, ranging from £100 to £2000. I can recommend good shops.
If you enjoy your trial lesson, you can start as soon as you like - paying pro-rata till the end of the current term, and then continuing in full terms.
I charge by the term so that you reserve a block of my time. See my fees page.
Easter and the May Bank Holidays sometimes alter the term lengths but I try to schedule three 10-week terms, with breaks at half-term.
I can provide music at cost and strings at a discount, to save you time & effort.
Not at all - I can teach you - I have tricks up my sleeve to make the learning easy!
Please wait till after your free trial lesson - there is more to this than you might realise...
It's more likely that you haven't tried making, rather than listening to, music - it's very different!
The situation is always changing. Contact me via the webform or ring me on 023 9247 9200
Evenings book up very quickly, but I can often fit you in during the day
If you're reading this, then yes!
I'm reticent about teaching young children. At the start, the guitar requires more co-ordination and dexterity than most instruments and it can be frustrating for youngsters.
At the other end of the scale, I've taught people in their seventies & eighties - the sky's the limit. I tailor the lessons to take account of stiff fingers and the need for a gentle pace.
