JohnS Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 I'm looking for an anglo concertina teacher for regular lessons to get me going - i'm a beginner. I live in SE London but can travel say to N London or Surrey. Thanks. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddy Long Les Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Hi John, I'm in Rayleigh, Essex and would be happy to teach you if you can't find anyone nearer. Les Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnS Posted November 14, 2016 Author Share Posted November 14, 2016 Thanks Les. I think it's a bit too far travel wise but I'll keep that in mind. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Given the right natural aptitude you can teach yourself to play an Anglo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Wilson Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 I'm pretty sure Jody Kruskal does lessons via skype. If you are going to have lessons it's probably advisable to have them with an experienced teacher and excellent player of the anglo concertina. Jody certainly is an excellent player. With skype there would be no travel involved at all so no petrol or tube ticket costs. I've no idea what the cost would be but a bit more expensive these days for Brits after, what was it you did? Brexit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jody Kruskal Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 (edited) Thanks for the kind words Steve. Yes John, I have Anglo students world-wide who want assistance as they work on playing in the harmonic/English style. Just check out my web site... http://jodykruskal.com/concertina_lessons.html I've figured out a method of distance learning that works very well with my students. Actually, I'm in England at the moment on my yearly folk club tour. I'll be driving from Watford to Dorking tomorrow for my Wednesday evening club performance there. Amazingly enough, I have some time on my hands in the afternoon and would enjoy meeting you for a lesson. However, it seems unlikely that you would be free then on such short notice or that we could find a location that was convenient for both of us. Still, email me if you like, my address is available from my web site contact button. Best of luck on your concertina adventure.

JohnS Posted November 15, 2016 Author Share Posted November 15, 2016 I've tried going solo but it's just not me. I'll look up Jody Kruskal - thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daria Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 Highly recommend Jody. I took lessons via Skype from him when I first got my Anglo and they were invaluable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
