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 3rd album in 2023. 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.

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.

  • When and why did you develop an interest in your chosen field?

    I was surrounded by music as a child and was always fascinated by how it worked. I would play with cassette tapes and vinyls, try to mimic sounds and whistle the melodies. I learned to play guitar by spending time and jamming with my uncles and their friends, who introduced me to a wide range of genres including gypsy jazz, reggae and Latin.
  • What makes you passionate about your subject?

    Music is the language of emotion, a way to express things without words. It offers a release, an escape, that everyone needs. Being able to play an instrument offers you a lot personally, it becomes a very close friend, and playing for others is a great privilege.
  • What do you like about tutoring? What makes you a "Superprof"?

    Learning to play is a great journey that never ends, and so is teaching. Being a tutor helps you to learn in more depth as you need to understand things on a deeper level to be able to explain them properly. Different students always bring new tastes and concepts to the table and this helps to keep things fresh and challenging. The process of helping other people to improve and find their own way is a very rewarding one.
  • Do you have any role models; a teacher that inspired you? Please explain.

    My biggest inspirations were my uncles who exposed me to all of the classic music and genres that have ultimately led to great journeys and musical opportunities in my life. They made sure I understood the value of well-crafted music, and musical discipline, but also that playing is about having fun.
  • What are your keys to success?

    Play what you love and love what you play. And practice like a demon.
