“Gareth Reaks has an incredible capacity for making 'difficult' learning effortless, painless, and most importantly enjoyable. It is clear that he has a very real passion for both music and teaching which is beneficial to a student in many different ways. As well as laying a solid theoretical foundation upon which a student may build, Gareth opens students up to new areas and ways of thinking and listening to music with the enthusiasm that only a few teachers possess. He is skilled in many areas such as harmony, history, and contemporary music, and it is fair to say that I owe my current aptitude and passion for music almost entirely to Gareth Reaks”
