Joe

Joe Badger is a professional musician and guitar teacher based in Surrey.

After being told in school at 6 years old he would never be a musician. Joe has since gone on to play sold out Arena tours supporting bands such as One Direction, performing in professional function bands all over Europe, as well as lots of recording and live sessions for various artists in the UK.

As well as having a consistent performing schedule, Joe has been teaching guitar privately after school for the last 9 years for all ages from beginners right up to advanced level. The main three areas Joe works on with students on are technique, repertoire and theory. Also covering Rockschool and Trinity Graded Exams, Joe has a 100% pass rate with students.

Tutoring Approach

I try to make guitar teaching and music as fun as possible whist trying to get the best out of my students by keeping them inspired. I cover all the main contemporary styles and focus on technique, repertoire and theory, as well working on grade exams with students if they wish.

The way I run my guitar lessons at the moment is that I drive to students homes and teach after school.
