About Kieran
I am a professional guitarist and qualified music teacher with extensive experience as a soloist, accompanist, and band member across various genres including Rock, Soul, Funk, Folk, Latin, Reggae, Gypsy Jazz, Classical, and more. I play Lead Guitar for the band El Misti and we're about to release our second album in 2021. I have a Degree in Music Education from the international contemporary music awarding body, Rockschool, as well as Grade 8 Electric Guitar (Rockschool) and Grade 8 Classical Guitar (ABRSM), and an Audio Engineering Diploma (SAE Institute International). I have traveled the world extensively researching world music genres, especially in Latin America. During a 2.5yr journey through Latin America, I attended the School of Mariachi in Guadalajara, Mexico and performed with Cuban street band, Los Jubilados del Caribe, in Santiago de Cuba. I am originally from the musical city of Liverpool, UK, however in September 2020, I relocated to Mexico where I am continuing my research into Latin American music genres and sharing my knowledge with my students.
About the lesson

All languages in which the lesson is available :
English
When taught the wrong way, music theory can be incredibly confusing, boring, impractical and, rather ironically - unmusical.
My approach includes the use of high-quality visuals to help you visualise what you are learning and see that actually there are interesting and useful patterns within music theory which we can get you applying immediately.

Perfect! Very knowledgeable and definitely explained music notation and theory to me in a way that I could easily understand it! Outstanding tutor!
- Kieran's response :
Perfect! Kieran was pretty knowledgeable and intelligent! He also has a sense of humor which is helpful when doing advanced theory stuff. I also became very frustrated at one point, and he remained calm and helpful! Kudos!
- Kieran's response :
Excellent! He knows the fretboard really well and could explain why he is doing certain things.
- Kieran's response :
Perfect! Kieran is great at breaking things down into bitesize chunks and laying out the path for you. Refreshing to have things explained in a very practical way.

Kieran is terrific with my 12 year old son - a lovely gentle manner, great fun and the first guitar teacher that my son really looks forward to seeing. Making great progress and the remote lessons work really well. Highly recommended.
Super pro player and great material.
Sessions are very enjoyable and content rich. Kieran has a great way of explaining things and sequencing things in a logical order.
Very professional and with knowledge about many genres.
Kieran has a great way of describing abstract musical concepts to make them a lot easier to remember and to actually apply in your playing. Love the way everything is so well-structured too!
Kieran sets out a really solid structure for me to practice in a much more organised way and the material is really rich and enjoyable to play.
He is very committed and dedicated to help others learn, whilst being extremely patient.
Always reliable and there when you need help, and very thoughtful and intelligent.Really well prepared, quality material and everything flowed in a logical order, which is exactly what I need.
Kieran is a great all round teacher. Since beginning lessons, my playing has developed not only in terms of technique but also my appreciation of the inner workings of music in general and how to actually use the things I learn in jam sessions with friends. Really enjoy every lesson!
When I first started lessons, I really wanted my goals and practice to be organised, and to be held accountable for my progress. Kieran has been great at giving me that and laying out the pathways. I really like the way he can explain things in detail as well as giving me the bigger picture.
Lots of great tabs and well structured courses. I always feel like I'm improving and heading in the right direction.
Super professional with great visual resources. Highly recommended.
Kieran seems to know exactly what I need and teaches inspiring and well constructed lessons using demonstration and screen share technology to great effect.
Kieran was very easy to get on with. Very knowledgeable. Good resource material for me to work on. Good use of technology along side personal feedback.
Absolutely superb teacher, couldn’t ask for more. Very calm and patient. Especially like that he uses my taste in music to teach rather than generic tuition. Couldn’t recommend more.
Kieran Gilchrist is a fantastic guitar teacher, Kieran opened up a world of guitar knowledge an theory that I had a very basic understanding of when I first started lessons 2 years ago. Since then I believe I can say I have improved drastically in multiple elements of not just guitar but music as a whole from discovering new genres too understanding complex theory concepts. Couldn’t recommend anymore highly.
Kieran’s teaching style is a strong mix of his friendly character and his astronomical musical education, this creates an atmosphere of comfort whist being pushed to become the best on your chosen instrument. Kieran’s incredible teaching has progressed me from being a novice bassist playing for fun to a musician aiming for a career in the performance industry, backed up by the technical ability and theoretical knowledge he’s passed on to me.
I was lucky to find Kieran. He is punctual and patient. He has helped me with maintence of my guitars, and not just playing. He is always there if I gave an issue with my instruments, and always provides good advice. He's never let me down. Big thank you!
Great teacher that gives you those eye-opening moments where you begin to put pieces of the puzzle together that you maybe haven't been able to quite see.
An excellent teacher on so may levels. As someone that has been playing a long time, Kieran is a phenomenal teacher that explains things thoroughly. My musicianship is growing significantly.
I've been having lessons with Kieran for a few months now and learnt more in that time than the years previously trying to self learn.
The lessons are interactive and fun and the software used is easy to use and can go away and practice what we learnt in the lessons.
Also, Kieran is a nice guy with a really good teaching style.
Would recommend to anyone!Top class. Great fun and knows his stuff!
Kieran is very knowledgeable about many genres on guitar and has taught me different styles on both electric and acoustic. The lessons are very tailored to my own tastes. Excellent teacher.
Kieran uses plenty of resources so you can visualize and refer to boxes, patterns and diagrams. It really speeds up your learning.
I wanted to improve my technical skills but just couldn't find the discipline. Kieran helped give me specific goals with structured drills and I have improved a lot. He is very patient and a good laugh.
