About Rachel

I'm Rachel!

I've been performing as a professional solo musician for 12+ years, at over 180 weddings nationally and internationally, as well as at festivals, at corporate events, in bars, cafes, markets, and more.

I've mentored primary and secondary students at Bandquest and Smokefreerockquest; lectured foundational songwriting at the University of Auckland; worked as a guitar tutor at To The Front! (previously known as Girls Rock Aotearoa); and taught ukulele to 5-year-olds, all the way through to finger-style guitar to adults.

My background in music includes:
- Bachelor of Music (University of Auckland)
- Performed solo at 180+ weddings across NZ
- 4x NZ On Air Funding recipient
- Mentor & Judge at Smokefreerockquest & Rockshop Bandquest
- Performed at venues including Spark Arena, Aotea Centre, The Tuning Fork, Sky City
- Lecturer of Foundational Songwriting, at the University of Auckland

I am very passionate about using music as a way to process emotion, communicate with others, and as a means for self-expression.

About the lesson

I teach guitar and songwriting in Auckland. My teaching philosophy is centered around encouraging creativity, self-expression, and developing a deep love and understanding of music. You'll be the center of your lesson - I'm there to help you follow your curiosities, via the music you're personally into. I work with each individual student to establish their goals for music, and together, we'll develop your skills to get you where you want to go!

Whether you are wanting to learn an instrument to accompany yourself singing, finally learn how to play ‘Blackbird’ by The Beatles, or strum a few chords at the next bonfire, learning to play the guitar is an incredibly satisfying skill to learn.

My specialty is teaching guitar from a singer/songwriter perspective - this includes rhythm guitar and finger-style guitar. I usually start students aged 5 - 7 on ukulele, before progressing them onto guitar. I value teaching with empathy, patience, warmth, and encouragement. I believe when we're relaxed and having fun, that we're the most open to creativity and learning. I teach students beginning at age 5, all the way through to teenagers and adult students.

Lessons are either 30 minutes or 1 hour, located in Mount Eden, Auckland. Get in touch to book a free 30 min lesson to see if I'm the right fit for you!

Rachel has run a number of songwriting workshops with students at my school. She is kind and insightful and the students clearly felt very comfortable with her and took a lot away from it. They are both in awe and enamoured with her voice and deep experience in the industry.

Working with Rachel has been such an incredible experience. As someone learning guitar for the first time, I was initially nervous about starting something new, but Rachel creates such a safe and supportive environment that I immediately felt at ease. She has a wonderful way of breaking down complex concepts into manageable steps, making each lesson feel exciting and achievable. Every session with her is not only educational but also fun, and I leave feeling more confident and inspired. I truly look forward to every lesson and am grateful for her patience, encouragement, and expertise. Thank you so much for your guidance and hard work!!
