GTS Newcastle Guitar Tuition Services

GTS Guitar Tuition Services has been providing expert guitar tuition since 1999. Beginning as a provider of individual tuition only, it has now grown to cater for school, aged care and disability groups.

We have around 200 clients enrolled. The teaching is conducted by myself (Paul Nickerson) and assisted by James Martin. I've been a musician all my adult life and started the business. James is a qualified teacher and long-time musician.

We offer standard song-based tuition to all, as well as tailored HSC music tuition including instruction, help with assesments and assignments, and help with performances - including performing with the students at crunch time.

Our chief focus, though, is to help people to play the songs they love and have long wanted to be able to play.

All possible areas of musical theory are covered, including how to read and write in standard notation and tablature.

We run guitar and community music programs at three local area public schools; MILLERS FOREST PS, WARNERS BAY PS and HAMILON NORTH PS.

We do the same for disability peer support and respite groups NEWLAKE and BIALA, and at CASURINA GROVE aged care facillity.

We also attend various group homes for the disabled around the greater Newcastle area.

Students who feel they are ready for public performance are also welcome to join the country/acoustic rock band KING SHAKEY at our regular Sunday afternoon show at the Hamilton Station Hotel in Beaumont St Hamilton. The shows run roughly every 6 weeks and represent a superb chance for young singer/guitarists to make their debut in a relaxed and friendly but public environment.

The first lesson is free for all students.
