Hi there, my name is Tyler Horn and I have been playing guitar for over 15 years now. I have been fortunate enough to be in various projects/bands over the years, including a two week tour in Hawaii. My goal in becoming a guitar teacher is to share my passion and love for music to hopefully help someone find that same passion in guitar. I know exactly what it's like to start from the very beginning, and I am ready to take you on that journey! If you are interested, please feel free to reach out and let me know. Thank you! Tyler Horn

I have 20 years of experience plus 30 years of gigging and an academic background (USC and GIT with honors). I have worked on many major festivals including a backing Grammy winner Diane Schurr. I play multiple instruments so that I can address issues of ensemble playing (playing in a band setting). I don't have a single approach to teaching. I find what works for each student and teach them according to their goals and learning style. I am extremely patient. I offer home based studio instruction in order to pass on a discount to my students. I offer a computer equiped studio that includes recording software as well as programs like Band ...

Lisaun W. says, "What I like most about learning guitar with David is that he never comes to the lesson expecting anything from the student. He is patient and allows the student to grow at their own pace. He treats you like an adult no matter your age and though he gives guidance and study materials he spends time changing it up to see what works best for each individual. A truly great teacher!

Your Guitar Lessons questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.com.

How much do guitar lessons cost near me?

Guitar lessons cost $35 to $70 per lesson, depending on if they last 30 minutes or up to 1 hour. If it's a one-on-one lesson, it'll cost around $45 to $70 hourly. Learning guitar in a group is cheaper at $25 to $35 per session.

If you're taking lessons every month, it adds up to $170 to $315 with the typical prepaid discount.

Are guitar lessons worth it?

Guitar lessons are worth it since only a professional teacher giving you live feedback can guide you to learn faster. A good instructor helps you understand your mistakes and prevents you from developing bad habits.

Learning guitar by yourself takes a lot longer and won't prepare you as well to play in public.

At what age should I start guitar lessons?

Children can start guitar lessons from the ages of 6 to 10, or when they can comfortably hold the guitar and press the strings. Adults can start guitar lessons at any age, provided they practice regularly and patiently.

How many guitar lessons do I need?

The number of guitar lessons you need varies according to your goal and your practice routine. For many people, it typically takes about 2 to 6 months to play a simple tune. Mastering the guitar like a professional can take anywhere from 4 to 10 years.

What do you learn in guitar lessons?

In most guitar lessons, you can expect to learn:

  • How to correctly position your fingers to play chords
  • How to tune your guitar
  • How to play various scales
  • New techniques for plucking and strumming
  • How to read sheet music.

Are online guitar lessons good?

Online guitar lessons cost $35 to $55 per hour and are good for getting personal instruction from skilled teachers worldwide. Take advantage of flexible scheduling and immediate feedback while learning new guitar-playing styles. Plus, you can easily record lessons to review their advice later.

How do I find the best guitar lessons near me?

In order to find the best guitar lessons for you, look through nearby teachers listed here on the Lessons website. You can also ask for teachers at local music stores or community colleges.

Before you hire a guitar teacher, make sure to:

  • Check out prices from at least 3 different teachers.
  • Read their reviews on Lessons and Google.
  • Ask for a list of their current or previous students that you can talk to.
  • Talk to other parents about the teacher's reputation with their children.
  • Make sure you get a written agreement and schedule before your first lesson.
  • Avoid making a big payment upfront for a month of lessons until you're comfortable with the teacher.

What questions do I ask when choosing a guitar teacher?

To find the right guitar teacher, you can ask them these questions:

  • What kind of music degree do you have?
  • How many years of experience do you have in teaching guitar?
  • Can I have a free trial lesson to see if your teaching style helps me?
  • What is the average age of your students?
  • Will you assign me finger exercises as homework?
  • How often should I practice between lessons?
  • What textbooks do I need, and where can I buy used ones?
  • How many guitar-playing styles are you an expert in?
  • Can you modify your teaching style to suit my learning abilities?
  • What should I bring to our lessons, and how long is each one?
  • Can I get a copy of our schedule, agreement, and payment terms?
  • What is your policy if I have to cancel a class due to an emergency?
  • Can I choose some of my favorite songs to learn on the guitar?

Kyle is an awesome and patient instructor. He explains things carefully and has a lot of great charts and exercises to help you understand techniques. He can figure out a song in seconds just by listening. Highly recommended

Jonah is an excellent guitar teacher for my 12 year old son. My son has some learning difficulties and Jonah has been great at being flexible, reading my son’s mood and pivoting the lesson in away my son always learns. Most importantly we have fun. We laugh, we jam, we create, and we always walk away glad we had our lesson. Jonah is also flexible with our schedule as well as the speed in which my son can learn, no rushing, no forcing something that isn’t working. We are finding a joy for music first and then we will grow our knowledge when we are ready. Jonah is also extremely talented and capable of shifting to a more structured and traditional lesson plan. I think that is his super power he can make the musical experience tailored to the student. He has been great and we are so glad we found him!

My daughter takes lessons with Cal Music and has taken voice, piano and guitar lessons. In the years she has taken lessons, she has learned alot and had many wonderful teachers. The performances have given her confidence beyond what I though they would. I would highly recommend this studios for beginners and advanced students. I have recently decided to try to learn to sing as well and they found me the perfect teacher who makes me feel comfortable and I love my lessons also. We will be long time students here and would not go anywhere else.

It is not just about hitting the right note, it is about relaxing and really feeling the joy of the music, of the perfect sound. It is an approach that is both unique and effective.
