Àpd 88.17 C$ /h

I teach guitar with a strong foundation in Irish folk music, focusing on solid technique, rhythm and musicality. Lessons draw on traditional repertoire as well as contemporary songs, helping students develop good timing, tone and confidence on the instrument. Suitable for beginners through to intermediate players, with lessons tailored to individual goals.

Beginner focused These guitar lessons are rooted in Irish folk traditions and designed to build strong fundamentals from the ground up. Students learn chords, strumming patterns, fingerstyle basics and simple tunes, with an emphasis on playing musically and comfortably. No previous experience required.

Folk and song accompaniment Guitar lessons focused on folk style accompaniment, drawing heavily from Irish traditional and contemporary folk music. Students learn chord shapes, rhythm, fingerpicking and song based playing, with an emphasis on supporting vocals and storytelling through the guitar.

More personal and artistic With a background in Irish folk music, my guitar teaching centres on feel, rhythm and connection to the song. Lessons explore traditional and modern folk approaches while building strong technique and musical understanding. Each class is shaped around the student’s interests and pace.

Présentation

Hi I'm Séamus!

I am a guitarist and singer rooted in Irish folk music, with over five albums released as a solo artist. My music has been featured on BBC and RTÉ, and I have performed alongside many well known and respected artists within the folk and traditional scene.

Alongside performing, I teach guitar with a relaxed and supportive approach, focusing on rhythm, feel and serving the song. My background in Irish folk shapes everything I do, but lessons are always guided by the student’s interests, whether that is traditional music, songwriting, or simply becoming more confident on the instrument.

The guitar is a fascinating and versatile musical instrument to play.
I know how exciting and challenging it could be, to pick up a musical instrument like the guitar, and set yourself on a mystery journey of an advenrure, as you learn how to play with it.

My aim, as a private guitar tutor is, to pass on to you a vital skill of which myself over the years have been on the selfsame journey as I keep learning and teaching.

In reasonable time span, you should be playing your favourite tunes on the guitar, having great fun. In due time, l will also be helping you with the basic concepts of the Music Theory underpinning your guitar playing - a universal musical language that enables you interact seamlessly,
and efficiently communicate with other musicians.
