My Mission

Electric & Acoustic Guitar Lessons

My lessons are driven by the music you love - I teach everything from Ed Sheeran to Metallica covering all styles and teach both electric and acoustic guitar. I like for my students to make sure they let me know the music that they enjoy so I can build a learning direction and lesson plan around that.

I pride myself on making sure my lessons are enjoyable for all of my students. Together we will create a lesson plan that suits your needs whilst making sure you get the most out of your lessons. If you ever have any questions about guitar I will always try my best to make sure I give you detailed answers that are easy to understand.

My Lessons

Guitar Lessons with Students in Mind

I like to create a lesson plan tailored to the student, focused on their individual goals and help them enjoy learning their favourite music while progressing rapidly on the guitar. I've always found that this is the best way to really improve as a skilled guitar player and also as a beginner. Learning familiar music and songs is the key to positive learning.

I believe everyone should be able to experience the pleasure of playing a musical instrument. This is why I offer lessons to students of all ages and abilities. However I would recommend waiting until age 6 to begin playing the guitar. I will make sure your lessons cover everything from theory to understanding without making sure we focus on your technique.

Prices:


£15 per 1/2 hour

Lessons are pay-as-you-go, weekly, fortnightly or as suits you.

My Experience as a Teacher

Hello! My name is Kirill! I’m a musician, guitarist, guitar tutor and just a guy who likes music, live music and people. I’m from Lithuania, I speak 3 languages: English, Russian and Lithuanian. I started playing guitar when I was 11 (I’m 24 now), mostly inspired by bands and composers like Nirvana, AC/DC, Metallica, Pantera, Jimi Hendrix, Joe Satriani, The Beatles and so on.

As I musically grew up, I got to know new cool musicians and composers, such as Paul Gilbert, Yngwie Malmsteen, Guthrie Govan, Shawn Lane, Ted Greene, Eric Johnson, Allan Holdsworth Frank Zappa, John Coltrane, John McLaughlin, Herbie Hancock, Andreas Oberg, Billy Strings and so many others…

When I was about 16 years old I started giving guitar lessons. I did individual and group lessons back in Lithuania for 3 years with many students passing through. When I moved to the United Kingdom, I started playing live music much more and I was able to meet more interesting musicians. I live in Aberdeen, and here I play at local pubs, playing covers for folks and jamming with many awesome musicians around the town at the blues nights and open mics. I play live music every week, teaching music to my friends and relatives, and trying to increase our fun musical society!

More About My Lessons

I accept students at any level, and will teach them all the genres, concepts, techniques and theories which I use and encourage them to play live with my help, playing cool tunes, enjoying music around the town and seeing different interesting local musicians!

Also, I see my mission is to explain that music is a language, and most importantly I will try to encourage becoming a self-taught musician to make future learning much easier and more interesting!

I’m self-taught as well and I like to explain different problems- the more questions the student asks, the better they help me to help him and in doing so I learn more, as teaching is a double learning, so the student will help me too! If you are curious about my level of playing or if you are interested in my original music or you would like to contact me I will leave a links below!

I offer lessons to students of all ages and abilities. However I would recommend waiting until age 6 to begin playing the guitar.

That is absolutely up to you. The majority of my students have guitar lessons on a weekly basis with a few taking them fortnightly.
