About Me
Hi, I'm Cian! I'm an acoustic, electric and bass guitar tutor based in Torbay, Auckland. I’ve been playing guitar for 13 years and have experience playing in bands and performing solo. I have achieved RockSchool Grade 7 (Electric Guitar), and have over two years teaching experience. As I’m still young, I’m perfect at working with kids to ensure they are able to enjoy learning the guitar, and stay interested. From first timers to intermediate-advanced level, at any age, I will be able to assist you in your learning journey!
Teaching Style
My teaching style aims to make learning fun and engaging. Depending on your current level, we will move through the necessary steps and stages that will enable you to progress sufficiently to where you want to be. This includes understanding the strings, notes, frets, and the theory relating to how everything works together. From there, focus is put on learning to read TAB and chord diagrams, which will then be practiced with basic scales and open chords. Furthering from this can be additional scales, barre chords, power chords, finger-picking, soloing, or any particular guitar playing you wish to focus on. All throughout this process I make sure that my student's are aware of the correct playing techniques and frequently engage with any concerns or struggles there may be.
I am able to assist students in completing their Rockschool Guitar Exams if they wish to complete these accreditations.
Services
Lessons are available for electric, acoustic, and bass guitar. In-home lessons are an additional service where I will come and teach in the comfort of your own home. Guitar rental is available from my collection if it is required.

I offer a free no-obligations 30 minute session before lessons commence so I can get to know you and your needs better. It is during this time that I will understand the style and genres you like, your current level and experience, and goals you have for your learning journey. Using this information I will then map out custom lesson plans designed just for you.
