OK, despite our keeness to keep the commerical crap out of the forums Feylya and I recognise there is a demand for info on lessons and nobody sane thinks of FS Services for this kind of thing so here is the plan. Use this thread to post requests for lessons and also instructors may post offers of lessons here, not just responses to specific lesson requests. Also, feel free to post feedback about lessons you may have taken from someone offering lessons on this thread.

For those offering lessons, we require that you post the following:

Instrument(s) And Styles
Experience
Location
Lesson Duration
Cost Per Lesson

Any offer of lessons without this information will be deleted.

I would advise against putting up phone numbers or email addresses, I think it would be best for all concerned if contact was made through PM.

If you have any suggestions or comments for the rules on this thread feel free to PM me or Feylya.

Have fun

Can anyone recommend a good all round guitar teacher who can teach me technique and a few different styles of music and who in general knows their stuff? I'm pretty much looking for a person who knows how to teach so I don't want anyone to start offering their services if they're not an actual teacher and are just looking for money. Any recommendations or help is much appreciated.

Hi all,

I'm looking for fiddle lessons in the Rathfarnham / Terenure Area. I'm a complete beginner ...

Thanks

Hi All,

I know that there have been other posts regarding this topic, but I have sent emails to the relevant people offering lessons and I have got no reply or else they don`t offer lessons during the summer.

Basically I want to begin guitar lessons as soon as possible. If anyone can recommend a teacher that does private lessons for complete beginners and will also advise on the purchase of a guitar I would really appreciate it.

I want to play electric guitar but have had some advice from people to go with an acoustic to begin with. Anyone any ideas.

Thanks ever so much.

Hi

I don't know if this is of any use now but I went to this guy in Blanchardstown. He was brilliant. He has been teaching for years and is really good - not just at playing, but at teaching!
Was very cheap too. If your still interested his email address is glenn_keogh@hotmail.com

As far as I know, he will travel to you for a small extra fee!

Good luck!
