Guitar & violin tuition

Stephen from Half Moon Bay

Hi. Start 2021 learning to play the guitar & violin. I am able to teach both to all ages…young & matured. I started playing at age 6.
My qualifications are NZ Suzuki (guitar & violin), violin grade 8 (distinction), ATCL (distinction) - a diploma in music performance. When I teach, I use the best of both worlds of both traditional & Suzuki teachings & it seems this combination works well. Last year, I was a school prefect. My teaching is at home (close to the Half Moon Bay marina, Auckland). My charge is only $25 per 30min which, it is below the market rate of $35 & $45. I can even teach in the weekends too.
You can contact me on: reuben182003@gmail.com

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
