I enrolled in Robert ’s electric guitar sessions. His guidance gave me the faith and ability to join my first local band in Cicero Town Centre area. And it was something I never imagined doing at 42

At Frenchtown High, I pursued my passion of becoming a musician. When my daughter was only fifteen, Robert acoustic fingerstyle lessons enabled him to create his own pop arrangements!

Robert , based in Wexford, is by far the most patient guitar instructor I’ve come across. He guided me from simple chord playing to confident fingerstyle techniques. If you want a supportive and well-organized learning journey, he’s a great choice.

I made the right choice by choosing Robert for my son's guitar lessons. Robert really gets kids. his creative use of colors for each chords and storytelling techniques keeps young minds engaged. My son now understands rhythm and the fretboard more easily without feeling overwhelmed.
