Welcome to Craig Smith Music's page for our music lessons in Blackpool. The tuition agency was set up when Craig Smith's very popular private tuition practice became overwhelmed with demand from prospective students. In addition to Craig, there are currently two teachers with availability on our books in Blackpool: one guitar teacher offering guitar lessons in Blackpool and the Fylde, and a piano and keyboard teacher offering keyboard and piano lessons in Lytham across to Preston.
New Lessons Available: We've a new piano teacher, available to teach piano lessons and keyboard lessons in Kirkham, Lytham and other local areas, due to start working with us in the coming days. Vacancies will be added ASAP.
Which instruments do the teachers teach? [Top]
At present, our music teachers in Blackpool offer guitar lessons in Blackpool and the Fylde, drum lessons in Blackpool and the Fylde (including Fleetwood and across to Pilling and Galgate), and piano and keyboard lessons in Blackpool, Lytham and East towards Preston.When and where do lessons take place? [Top]
Guitar lessons in Blackpool are hosted by our guitar teacher at his studio, within easy driving distance of Lytham, Poulton, Kirkham and other surrounding areas. If you were looking for the teacher to visit you, please get in touch and we'll try to arrange that for you too. We offer our guitar lessons on Thursdays; for exact vacancies information for our Blackpool guitar lessons, Blackpool drum lessons and all other tuition, please see the vacancies page.Our Fylde drum lessons are available at our drum teacher's home, and he will also travel up to 25 miles to students' homes. Mark's prices begin at just £20.50 for a whole hour; we're convinced that tuition of Mark's quality won't beat this price. His lessons are conveniently situated close to Carleton Cross-Roads (near the Castle Gardens pub), easily accessible from Blackpool, Thornton-Cleveleys, Fleetwood, Poulton and all other nearby towns. We can offer drum lessons at weekends and on Tuesday nights.
Keyboard or piano lessons in Kirkham, Lytham, Warton, Wrea Green, Freckleton etc are presently limited to Saturday and certain weekday daytimes. Weekday lessons are with Craig. Weekend lessons are with Steph, who followed in Craig's footsteps by achieving a place at the world-famous Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts.
The other music teachers on our books teach from our bases in Preston, East Lancashire, Salford and Merseyside, covering almost the entire North West.
Who will teach my lesson? [Top]
Several of the music teachers on our books are past students or long-term associates of Craig, meaning we are sure that they meet our expectations both personally and as musicians and teachers. Paul is available for guitar lessons in Blackpool and is easily accessible to students throughout the Fylde; his busy professional performing timetable means lessons are currently only available on Thursdays. Our new Blackpool drum teacher, Mark, is a full-time professional drummer and musicician of many years' experience, and has several teaching qualifications. His drum and percussion lessons are available at his home or yours, and offer some of the best value for money available on the Fylde.Lessons on all of the musical instruments we currently provide in Blackpool and Fylde are available to everyone from beginners, right through to advanced level performers.
All of our music teachers have to meet certain criteria before being formally accepted onto our books. These include, but aren't limited to, having high levels of ability on the instrument(s) to be taught, graded certifications in performance and theory of music, and suitable teaching space when they teach from home or a studio. They are also asked to provide a CRB disclosure.
