Beginner Guitar Lessons - Dublin 14

Dazzler0911

Looking to finally take lessons and learn how to play the Guitar.

Wondering what's the best way to go about it?

Have looked at lessons in the likes of The Music Room in Dundrum, Waltons etc.

Can anyway say if these are good or is it better looking on the likes of Adverts.ie or Gumtree for cheaper/individual lessons.

Would preferably like to find somewhere close to home ie. Churchtown, Dundrum direction

Any help appreciated

Depends on what your goal is in learning the guitar. If it's just for fun and enjoyment, then my choice would be to check out Gumtree or Adverts. At the same time, try to confirm that the teacher has both experience of teaching and also knows their stuff. A good idea would be to get the teacher to recommend a tutorial book and work through it with him/her.

I think you are right to seek lessons when you are starting from scratch. You will learn more in a few weeks with a good teacher than in a few months working on your own.

Best of luck with it.

Hi there,
I lived in Churchtown until recently & started piano 3 years ago after my first baby. I found an amazing teacher who comes to the house each week. I just sat Grade 3 exam yesterday so I have made significant progress thanks to him. He also teaches guitar. I would highly recommend him. Such a lovely personality too. In his 30s. Qualified teacher. Send me an email & I'll give u his number. Don't know if he's booked up but worth a shot. Saw his advert originally in SuperValu!
