Damien is a next level guitar teacher who can really give you a tailored guitar learning experience. If you want someone who can teach you both ends of the spectrum from doe-ray-me for beginners, to technical melodic shred picking for more advanced players then Damien is your man. We have been with him for over two years now and he has really helped us grow in our musical abilities! Thanks Damien and the Six Strings crew!

Damien has been the most wonderful guitar teacher for our son. He makes every lesson so enjoyable and fun and it is the highlight of my son’s week to go to his lesson. Damien lets his students choose music that they are interested in, which is such a wonderful way to keep people engaged. We absolutely love coming to Six Strings Townsville and we feel so lucky that Damien is guiding our son on his guitar journey.

Recently started my guitar lesson journey at Six Strings Townsville and with Damien and couldn’t be happier! Smooth easy process and communication to get booked in and each week I look forward to my lesson. Damien is really passionate, encouraging and supportive. Each week I know I am going to learn and benefit with something new and that makes the experience really enjoyable. Sign up with Six Strings!

Rediscovering the Joy of Guitar with Six Strings Townsville. After years of struggling to progress with my guitar skills using online tutorials, I decided to give Six Strings Townsville a try. From the first lesson, I knew I'd made the right choice. Damien, my instructor, was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic. His ability to break down complex concepts into easy-to-understand steps made learning a breeze. One of the biggest things that impressed me was Damien's personalized approach to teaching. He tailored each lesson to my specific goals, ensuring that I was always progressing and having fun. His encouragement and positive feedback helped me regain my confidence and rediscover my love for playing the acoustic guitar. I highly recommend Six Strings Townsville to anyone looking for quality guitar lessons in Townsville. Damien is an exceptional teacher who will help you reach your musical aspirations. Steve D

Every testimonial tells a story of growth, passion, and musical achievement

"Mr Hill is patient and understanding and encouraging."
A
Amy Jurss
Student
"Pypr really enjoys her guitar lessons with Mr Hill. She has been having these for a couple of years now and never complains about going to lessons. Damien Hill has a lot of patience and is very calm with the students. It is a testament to Damien's skills when you see the students playing in concerts in front of the parents. I am sure Pypr will continue to advance in guitar under Damien's teachings."

Kerry Bull
Parent
"Our daughter has taken up guitar this year, after playing violin for the past 3 years. She gave herself the challenge of both instruments, but knowing Damien, we knew she would enjoy it. She has taken to it so well & impresses us every week with her prowess. She loves the variety of music she learns and she also likes being able to choose popular pieces she likes. Even though the lessons are quite short this year, Damien has shown her so much & that is very impressive to us."

Faye Davis-Goodall
Parent
"My son very much enjoys his weekly lessons with Damien and comes away from his lessons each week having learnt not only something new but songs that are current and he can relate to. As the lessons are carried out at school and parents are not present, the weekly feedback from Damien is very well received. I would recommend Damien to anyone wanting to learn to play the guitar."
E
Emma Johnson
Parent
"My son has been attending lessons with Damien for 3 years and ensemble. Damien makes his lessons relevant for the students with a mixture of music for them to learn. I especially enjoy the 'epic' modern songs, keeps his students engaged. Damien is readily available to discuss my child's progress and advice."

Samantha Lemmon
Parent
"I have had two boys learn guitar with Damien Hill. They have learned guitar very quickly and have really enjoyed their guitar lessons with him. He is fun and connects to them on their level. All lessons have songs which are familiar to them and fun which makes it easier to get them to practice and makes them keen to learn. He contacts me via email straight after each lesson with an update on their progress and a new song to learn or practice. I would definitely recommend Damien as a guitar teacher."
