David Mills
Guitar Teacher
The classic guitar has been a lifelong passion for me and I enjoy passing my knowledge on to young people. I have a strong focus on technical development because I believe that technique is the foundation of the art. I have had a long involvement in teaching in both the primary and secondary sectors and I have a background in solo and ensemble performing.
