    Ever wanted to play your favourite songs on piano or keyboards?
    I am an experienced live performer and teacher and have spent the last 12 years playing live with cover bands and tribute bands so i know how to play alot of hit songs on piano.
    I teach my students in a way that makes them feel comfortable in a relaxed atmosphere (and if the student wants to learn without learning scales and reading sheet music, i can cater for that approach aswell.)
    I have two types of classes.......
    20 Euro for a 40 minute lesson and 30 Euro for an hour long lesson.
    Feel free to get in touch. I am based in Kilnamanagh in Dublin 24.

    Elaine Hogan of Ennis - I don't know if she does private teaching so I'll ask her before I give out her number. I worked with her before - brilliant musician, very nice even tempered girl - she'd be excellent!

    Looking just to get started or don't mind of the teacher changes after a year. Then you could try UL Trad music students - call the Irish World music centre and ask if any of their students are looking for a teacher.

    Hope this helps slightly ;)

    Hi I have been living in Galway County for 5 years now, and before I moved here and had children,(origonally from N Ireland), I was an Irish Traditional Flute player, who won many medals in Fleadhs around the country including two seconds in the All Ireland.

    Since having my Children, I have not really played it, but would love to get back into the Irish Music Scene. I can still play a tune or two, but I am way way way out of practice. I still own my own flute, a John Williams, which I love, so if anyone out there know of any flute classes in the Galway area, or any sessions that I could attend to gently get me back in practice, that I could join in on, could you please let me know, it would be greatly appreciated!!
