Shane Counter

"My 9 year old really looks forward to his guitar lesson with Shane every week. I have noticed his steady progression since he started (March 2014). Shane has a very professional, personable and patient manner and makes each lesson a very enjoyable experience."

"I've been playing guitar on and off for about 25 years without ever really knowing much more than basic chords and power chords - so thought it was time to take a few lessons and that's when I contacted Shane. After 2 lessons I saw a big difference in the way I looked at and approached the fretboard. What I asked for was to learn how to navigate the fretboard, how to build / expand riffs and generally improve on what I already knew. That's what I'm getting: lessons built around my needs, delivered in my own home in a very friendly and professional manner makes it very easy and after a few more lessons I'm already doing things in a whole new way."

"My 12-year old son is taking lessons from Shane and is really enjoying them. Shane let's the student dictate the type of music rather than teaching them music they are not interested in - which keeps the student very enthusiastic about learning. Also, as a Mother constantly dropping kids off to different activities, it's great that Shane travels to you!!"

"My ten year old son wanted to start guitar lessons this year and I looked into a number of places which offered guitar lessons to children, but nothing really jumped out at me as suitable. I came across Shane Counter, and when we spoke on the phone, I was really delighted with the service Shane was offering. Shane is really easy going and has a great way with my son. He comes to our house (which really helped my son get comfortable with doing music lessons), and was very flexible with arranging a time/day, so we have been able to work around our busy home schedule. Now, each week, I see my son having a jamming session with his music teacher, and I have no difficulty getting him to practice between lessons. My son even asked if he could have 2 lessons a week, until I explained he would have to do twice as much practice! Shane is a great music teacher, and has inspired an enjoyment of the guitar in my ten year old very quickly. That is some achievement!"

"My ten year old daughter has been getting lessons from Shane and has gained so much in a short amount of time. Shane has a very professional approach and has tweaked his teaching techniques to suit her learning style which has really helped her progress and she looks forward to every lesson. It has been the only activity my daughter has wanted to keep up and it is lovely to see how Shane has inspired her to develop her music skills."
