Anil brings 20 years of experience in music to students across Westmead and surrounding areas, teaching guitar and sitar with lessons available at his home, online, or at a location of the student’s choosing. Holding a master’s degree in eastern classical music specialising in sitar, Anil combines a deep classical foundation with a genuine love for rock, metal, blues, and fusion guitar styles, giving students access to a rare mix of eastern and western musical traditions in one teacher.
What sets Anil’s teaching apart is his focus on technique first, helping students build the physical and musical skills needed to play confidently and perform songs they actually enjoy. He teaches rock, metal, blues, North Indian, and folk styles across both guitar and sitar, drawing on years of experience performing with bands both nationally and internationally. This performance background shapes his teaching, with an emphasis on practical playing rather than theory alone.
Lessons are open to all levels and conducted in English, making them accessible whether a student is picking up an instrument for the first time or looking to sharpen existing skills. Anil’s ability to teach both guitar and sitar with equal depth, alongside his real world performing experience, is what makes his lessons stand out among music tutors in Westmead.
