About Conor

Hi there! My name is Conor. I've been playing and making music since I was 11. Being raised in a very musical part of Ireland, as a kid I was often to be found playing in the folk/trad sessions of my local town, or busking on the streets of sunny Galway! These early experiences really shaped my passion for music, and it wasn't long before I was entering competitions (at 17 I won second place in the all-Ireland songwriting competition "Beo") and planning to become a professional musician. I started teaching around this time, and I'm proud to say since then I've been able to help many budding musicians take their first steps into the world of music! At 18 I left my hometown to study music in BIMM, Dublin. Here I really fleshed out my knowledge of the technical parts of music; Production, Composition, Arrangement, Music History, Music Business etc. I played guitar and bass for many artists in some of the most famous venues in Dublin (Whelan's, The Button Factory, Workman's...) Since graduating, I've continued teaching while also working as a producer, helping artists find their voice and record their music as well as playing guitar and bass on their records. All these rich experiences in varied aspects of music have given me a unique perspective as a teacher - I have gained deep knowledge and experience in a wide range of areas, from the technical aspects of music, to the history of different genres and artists, to real-life experience working with bands on-stage and in studios. I have played guitar in the smallest most intimate sessions in rural pubs, to the streets of large cities, to crowds of thousands of people. I bring all of this knowledge and experience into my lessons, and help students connect with music on a deeper level. My years of experience teaching has given me the skill of explaining complicated abstract concepts in an intuitive and easy to understand way, and my broad knowledge of music means I can give students the context and meaning behind these concepts so you'll understand them deeper! I've been in love with music since I was a kid, and it really has changed my life -now I want to help you get started on your journey!

About the lesson

In my lessons, we will learn songs you love, and use them to teach you the core skills and ideas to make real progress. Whether you want to play rock, pop or anything else, I am here to teach you guitar in a way that combines theory & technique in a way that feels easy, effortless & fun! I have been playing guitar & bass for over 10 years, and teaching for 7. My experience working with artists as a producer & degree in Commercial Modern Music will give you a great music experience where you see music in a way you haven’t before. Guitar is just one part of music, and we have to understand its role in a wider context! In our introductory call, we'll discuss your goals, taste and your learning style. I can’t wait to show you all the tips & tricks TikTok and YouTube doesn’t show you! These lessons are perfect for beginner-intermediate level

Perfect! We’ve had such a fantastic experience with Conor. He has a brilliant way of connecting with young students and makes every lesson fun, engaging, and encouraging. Our 12-year-old genuinely looks forward to his lessons each week, which says a lot!

He’s incredibly patient, positive, and talented, and he explains things in a way that really builds confidence. We’ve seen huge progress already! The lessons are always well organised, relaxed, and enjoyable. Conor seems to know just when to take a little break for the fingers and have a brief chat - learning a new skill could be exhausting otherwise!

It’s rare to find someone so skilled musically while also being so great with kids. We couldn’t recommend him highly enough to any parent looking for an inspiring guitar teacher for their child.

Perfect! Conor is an excellent teacher. He has the utmost amount of knowledge and patience with me as a complete beginner. The way he is able to break things down in a way which is easily digestible is incredible. I look forward to the lessons every week. 10/10 would highly recommend to anyone of any level. The progression in which my guitar skills are coming on is quite fast each week which is very encouraging!

Conor taught me how to play bass guitar in a really fun, approachable way. I was never good at learning how to play music using more technical terminology & music theory but with Conor, that didn’t matter. By teaching me how to play my favourite songs he kept me motivated & wanting to come back for more.

My daughter is currently learning to play guitar with Conor, and she is delighted! She's a very shy kid, so it really surprises me when she suddenly wants to play something for her uncle or her brother. She's always looking forward to the lessons! Thank you so much Conor

I started playing guitar a year ago learning songs from Tik Tok and Youtube but felt like I couldn't understand anything I was playing. Conor was able to provide me with explanations for what I was playing in a way that felt so easy and fun! 100% recommend him

I tried two different guitar teachers before Conor: One was too technique focused, he would always teach me scales out of context and I told him so many times that I actually just wanted to learn songs, but he kept insisting that I had to know this first (lie). Then I tried another one that taught me a few songs he liked which definitely was better but still felt like it was a bit of copy paste, not really a personalized 1:1 lesson. A friend recommended I should try guitar lessons with Conor and haven’t looked back. We’ve been doing lessons for 6 months now and I finally gained back my love and connection for guitar. I am so grateful I found him. He’s a very dedicated teacher, who listens to what I need, and takes time to teach me songs I like, and the context of the song! I’ve learnt so much about the artists I love and how they write the songs. 100% recommend this teacher
