Reviews of Michael Mackay Music

My son has been going to Michael for electric guitar lessons for a couple of years. He really enjoys the lessons, specially as Michael lets him choose the music he wants to learn or improve on, but also teaches him good technique. My son says Michael is fun and friendly. From my point of view, I really appreciate Michael being flexible with lesson times/dates when we have clashes. Very happy customer here!

Michael is an excellent teacher with a brilliant teaching style. He is incredibly positive, constructive, and knowledgeable. Lessons are always fun and inspiring. I'd absolutely recommend him to anyone who is learning or even curious about the guitar.

Fantastic guitar tutor. Michael has been teaching my young son for around 9 months. The 1 to 1 lessons have an excellent balance between learning new techniques, working on the Rock School grade books and jamming. At the heart of it all is instilling good playing technique in a really enjoyable way. After each lesson we leave having learned something new to practice and improve on at home to bring back the following week. Michael has also introduced us to new styles of music and broadened my sons interest. Thoroughly recommend!

My son (age 12) has been learning guitar with Michael for several months and is progressing nicely. The lessons are tailored to his current playing ability and musical interests and his technique is showing constant improvement. Michael is very encouraging and my son leaves the lessons inspired to practice and is enjoying every second spent playing guitar. Highly recommended.

S. L.

Both my sons and I really enjoy learning guitar with Michael. From teaching the kids the basics to trying to break my bad habits he has knowledge and patience and a great reaching style. Highly recommended!

Best guitar teacher I've ever had! Started lessons with Michael just over a year ago and my playing has improved significantly. He is always encouraging and explains everything clearly, allowing me to work at my own pace. Lessons are fun and interesting, tailored to suit whichever direction I want to go in. He has helped me to grow and develop as a musician. Couldn't ask for a better teacher.

N. L.

Highly recommended! Michael has been teaching my son from beginner level and I have been really impressed with the progress. Michael has a really good teaching style, communicates well and makes sure the technique is sound. Mixing the theory with favourite tunes keeps the enthusiasm up too! My son really enjoys the lessons too so couldn’t ask for more!

I have no hesitation in giving Michael a 5 star review. An excellent guitar tutor who shows endless patience and lots of encouragement. I started lessons with him 6 months ago as a complete beginner. Thanks to Michael’s knowledge and teaching methods I am amazed at how much progress I have made already. He also makes every lesson a lot of fun. Such a nice guy who is very reliable and so accommodating.

My 13 year old has been tutored by Michael for over 2 years now and really enjoying it. Michael's ability to get the essentials done while at the same time allowing my son to learn popular everyday songs that he likes generates the right kind of fun and enthusiasm that should come with learning the guitar.

Michael is teaching my son electric guitar and he has shown great improvement from lesson one, Michael is current, patient, relevant and motivational. Fraser is so enthusiastic after each session he cannot wait until the next lesson. I have no hesitation in recommending Michael to anyone who is looking to improve their music knowledge and guitar skills. Neil & Fraser Burgess

Very good guitar teacher. Had a few lessons from Michael and he's improved my playing more than I could have wished for.

J. M.

Always wanted to play that guitar I had in the loft but never got round to lessons. I've had a couple now with Michael and now wondering why I didn't get round to starting earlier! Brilliant teacher, would recommend to anyone looking to start playing!

Michael is a very talented player and tutored me during my HNC course at AMS a few years back. He has inspired me to work on my own sound as a player and has definitely improved my technical skills on the guitar. Very patient with all students and very effective teaching methods. Highly recommended.

Good tuition from a talented player. I went to Michael looking to develop and gain confidence in my lead guitar playing and now after getting lessons for a few months I can actually play a half-decent solo. Thanks man 🤘

Fantastic lessons from an enthusiastic and talented guitarist and teacher. Very patient and great with children and adults alike. Teaches practical and theoretical guitar in a way that is easily understood and enjoyable based on the students own musical interests. Highly recommended.

D. P.

I was looking around for a guitar tutor in Edinburgh to get a few lessons to brush up my technique. Luckily Michael lives close by and I viewed videos on his youtube channel, so gave him a call and he came round to give me a couple of lessons. My guitar playing has improved a lot.

My daughter Jan came on leaps and bounds after just a few lessons with Mikey. He is clearly a very capable and encouraging teacher, as well as a skilled musician in his own right. She's learned from the best! Thanks!

M. H.

Went for a few lessons with Michael and really enjoyed his teaching style. Lessons focused on what I wanted to learn, and allowed me to advance as a player.

Michael has been teaching our son for the last six months or so and we are extremely impressed. An absolute pleasure to deal with and I am sure the neighbours are grateful too!

C. O.

Michael keeps the lessons fresh, individual and the songs modern and relevant - perfect for anyone but especially children.

I find my lessons with Michael really enjoyable and have really helped me improve and obtain my grades, Lewis Tough

"Michael has the perfect blend of youth, ability and teaching application to ensure both my girls (10 and 11 years) enjoy their lessons and make good progress. In terms of the logistics, Michael is totally reliable with good communication skills to make the booking and payment of lessons effortless. Highly recommended.” Stephen Oswald
