Ask your guitar teacher to show you how. Then throw it away and buy a clip-on electronic tuner.

How to tune acoustic guitar with chromatic tuner?
Sat800 Seika – name of the tuner.
But i just don’t get it. I try to tune the strings but the light never is green (which means it is tuned) it keeps staying red. Any advice?

Hello there,
I have not used that tuner, but I did check it out on-line. It can be used for an acoustic. The lights should indicate whether the pitch is sharp (too high) or flat (too low). Lets say you are tuning the low E string and the red light shows you the pitch is flat. Turn the tuning peg to tighten the string and raise the pitch. Check it again with the tuner. And repeat until you get the green light. Now that you have one string tuned to the correct pitch you can use that string to help you get the next string close to correct. Fret the low E string at the 5th fret. That is A. Then tune the next string, that pitch. Now the A string is close. Use the tuner to dial the pitch in exact. Then repeat the process for the next string. Fret the A string at the 5th fret and that is D. Tune the next string in close and use the tuner to get it exact. Then move to the next string. Fret the D string at the 5th fret and that is G. Tune the next string in to that pitch and then get it exact with the tuner. For the next string, fret the G string at the 4th fret that is B. Tune the next string in close to that pitch and fine tune it with the tuner. For the last string, fret the B string at the 5th fret. That is E. Tune the last string to the pitch and fine tune it with the tuner.
You can start with any string you can get tuned in with the tuner. Then move across the neck either direction by tuning to the adjacent string as I described above.

A good quality guitar tuner can be used to tune either an electric or acoustic guitar. The notes are still the same.

Your question firstly said “acoustic” but you want an “electric” tuner. There is no difference at all.
I have three Gibson guitars …. 1 acoustic electric, 1 slim-line acoustic electric, and 1 hard electric. My tuner works for all of them.
Guitar strings are really cheap. I pay NZ$15-00 for mine … Probably US$10-00.
Tuners can range in prices. I have two that clamp to the top of the neck, not the plug in ones.
Go to a music shop and check them out … Talk to the sales assistant. You would get a better answer because I’m in New Zealand and can’t work out the exchange rate of what they would cost.
You are right … .the “skinny string” is an “E”
