Monster Music

We highly recommend Monster Music if you are looking for a fantastic guitar (or drums/ukulele/keyboard) tutor – Emily loves her lessons with Daniel and she has progressed beyond our expectations in a short period of time. The Monster Music concerts are a fantastic way for the kids to gain confidence in performing in a supportive environment and Daniel has a wonderful way of engaging the kids and keeping them motivated. Daniel also organises busking and other events to further develop the kids’ confidence and practice their skills. Definitely 5 stars!

Dan and the team of tutors are so enthusiastic and passionate about educating our kids… their performance showcases are next level giving our kids an experience that is far beyond anything else. Highly recommend them.

Had a great online lesson with Daniel. He expressed high levels of knowledge and could communicate these advanced methods to a more novice learner. He went out of his own way to create some homework type activities and sheets to ensure I left with specifics to work on. The lesson was also fun, full of laughs, and I will definitely use this service once again! AAA+++!

Monster Music is a fantastic music program that has been a huge success with many school students including our daughter.The team at Monster Music have taken teaching music (which can sometimes be boring) to creating an amazing experience for their students.Students are taught the general fundamentals of learning their instruments from friendly experienced tutors. But what is unique about this program is that they offer students an early insight of public performances in many friendly and well organised events.What ever the pace the students are at, the organisers encourage every student to shine and showcase their skills. Plenty of opportunities are arranged for students to overcome fears, anxieties and to help shape their musical journey with confidence.Our daughter played 2 years of ukulele and has transitioned to playing the guitar. She has played and sung publicly to her school, in several concerts and at a busy restaurant bar. Something we have never thought she was capable of.Monster Music will bring out that special something in every student.

Very professional and a real perfectionist in the way he teaches. The benefits that our children take away is priceless and a skill that they will never lose. Thank you Daniel for making music enjoyable for our children to learn. PS: I need to get ear plugs they're forever practising and love hitting the drums after school. Bless nga mihi nui

If I had to choose someone to sing the praises of Dan and Monster Music then it would have to be a combo of Beyoncé and Ed Sheeran. Dan’s ability to connect with and inspire children is outstanding. His boundless enthusiasm and musical talents are gifts he shares with such passion and immense generosity of spirit. If you are thinking of introducing your child to an instrument, then I unreservedly recommend Monster Music.

Hands down the best music school we’ve ever been involved with.Encouraging, energetic, authentic and bloody talented, the crew here bring out the absolute best in the little monsters. If our lad ends up on stage in 20 years it will all be thanks to the Monster Music team.Get your kids a white wrist band and under way, you won’t regret it.

My children thoroughly enjoy their music lessons and Daniel goes above and beyond giving them amazing opportunities to perform. The tutors have a great way with the kids and getting regular feedback as a parent is fabulous. I would 100% recommend Monster Music to anyone with children looking for music lessons.

Fantastic guitar and drum tutors who work with kids of all ages and abilities. William's drum lessons at Paparoa Street School with Finley is the highlight of his week. Dan has built an incredible community and supports the kids to develop their performing ability by organising concerts, busking and other events! A +++ Highly recommend

Monster Music is incredible, our kids have progressed super fast with their amazing and enthusiastic teachers. They love their weekly lessons and best of all they've chosen to do it in school time, so a highlight of their school week.They have a great system with wrist bands for levels/improvements and awesome communication to keep parents updated, along with many opportunities as they progress.
