About Joss
Joss was born in the small seaside fishing town of Oban on the north west coast of Scotland and moved to Glasgow at an early age. It was here that Joss started to take an interest in jazz, becoming involved with jazz workshops and big band at the Glasgow Arts Centre and performing with the National Youth Jazz Orchestra of Scotland. Aged seventeen Joss moved to London to study jazz at university. He was taught harmony and theory by Pete Churchill (Jazz Education award 2007) and Nikki Iles (Jazz Education award nominee 2007 & 2009) and had guitar tuition under the guidance of multi-instrumentalist Stuart Hall and Phil Robson (Winner of 'Best Jazz musician of the Year' 2009). Joss also developed his performing skills with tuition by founding member of Loose Tubes and jazz educator - trumpeter Chris Batchelor. After graduating with an honours degree in Jazz (BA Music Jazz Studies) Joss stayed in London for several years working professionally before studying for a Post Graduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) and moving to Devon where he still resides. Joss now teaches Music part time at a local secondary school while continuing to gig with some of the top musicians in the South West.

Joss is a very patient teacher and takes the time to understand the aims and goals of the learner. Lessons build on previous sessions and theory is cleverly integrated into lessons.

Lessons are generally 60 minutes in duration and can be online or in person. Weekly or fortnightly sessions are advised in order to make good progress. Joss is happy to work with students of any age or level as long as they are serious about improving.

Joss is an outstanding teacher and outstanding musician. He is without doubt the best guitar teacher I have ever met. He is patient, supportive and encouraging. I have developed a real joy in learning Jazz and music theory and his lessons have made such a difference to me. I thoroughly recommend Joss.
