This week, Kiran and Matt are joined by Mat Lake, one of the hardest working and most in-demand guitar teachers in the South East of the UK. Mat talks us through his early life as a student, how he got into teaching guitar and how he manages his bursting diary of guitar related activities such as teaching in schools, privately, gigging, educational events and performances, recording & rehearsing and even the paperwork! How he finds the time, we will never understand! Remember to please subscribe wherever you listen to your podcasts, and come to see us on our social media channels below:https://www.facebook.com/Guitarsmartshttps://www.instagram.com/guitar_smarts/ Have a very merry time playing guitar this week, and we will see you next Monday!  Kiran & MattWant some fantastic Guitar Smarts Merch?
