Gretta K. says, "So glad a friend told me about this company for our musical daughter! I couldn’t be happier with the ease of booking, communication, high quality teachers, and the fact that they come to your home for lessons is the most convenient thing ever! I can get so much more done having one less activity to shuttle around for. My daughter loves her teacher and I won’t use any other company for our music lesson needs.

Madeleine F. says, "I am an adult beginner piano student and I couldn't be happier working with Ms. Crawford. She is an amazing teacher who is very patient and thorough. It's just been a few months but I am already playing classical pieces and others that I never would have guessed so quickly. I can read music already and that's all because of the techniques I have been taught. I would recommend this school absolutely for anyone wanting to learn to play the piano and have fun while doing so." Read more

Your Flute Lessons questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.

How much do flute lessons cost near me?

Flute lessons cost $50 to $80 per hour for private sessions at a music studio. A monthly bundle of 4 to 5 lessons costs $190 to $360 total. Learn to play the flute on a budget through small-group classes that cost $20 to $40 per session.

Study how to play the flute with teachers from all over the world with online flute lessons that cost $40 to $70 per hour.

Are flute lessons worth it?

Flute lessons are worth it, especially for those committed to mastering professional techniques. Studying under a seasoned flautist accelerates learning and improves proficiency in playing techniques. Feedback from an encouraging mentor helps you get through challenges and avoid developing poor habits in posture or finger positions.

What do you learn in a flute lesson?

In an average flute lesson, you'll learn how to:

  • Breathe the right way when you play.
  • Keep your pace steady when you play.
  • Place your fingers on the right spots for each note.
  • Keep your body straight and in the right position.
  • Read sheet music.
  • Practice different musical scales.

You can get pretty good at playing a simple song on the flute in about 6 to 7 months.

What age is good to start flute lessons?

A good age for kids to start flute lessons is from 6 to 9 years old. Adult learners can start flute classes at any age.

A child is ready to begin flute classes when:

  • The child's hands are large enough to hold the instrument.
  • A kid has sufficient lung capacity for the breath control needed to play the flute.
  • Children can concentrate for at least 30 minutes.

How long does a flute lesson last?

A flute lesson lasts about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the student's needs. Beginners often start with shorter lessons to slowly increase their focus and improve their flute-playing skills.

How do I find a flute teacher near me?

Find a flute teacher near you by searching for private instructors here on Lessons. You can also ask for the availability of teachers at local music stores. Flute classes might be available at community colleges too.

Before choosing a flute teacher near you, don't forget to:

  • Collect prices for 3 different flute courses to compare them.
  • Read what people have said about them on Lessons and Google.
  • Ask for a list of students they have taught in the past for references.
  • Check with other parents if the teacher is popular with kids.
  • Get a copy of the agreement and the schedule before the first lesson.
  • Wait until you've had a few lessons and feel that the teacher is a good fit before paying for a whole month.

What questions should you ask a flute teacher?

Before you book lessons with a flute teacher, ask them:

  • How long have you been teaching the flute?
  • What music school did you go to?
  • Have you played the flute professionally?
  • Can I try a lesson for free before I decide to keep going?
  • What ages or skill levels do you like to teach?
  • What kind of flute should I get if I'm just starting?
  • How much should I practice between our lessons?
  • Can you tell me about any flute books or things that will help me get better?
  • Will I get homework?
  • Can you teach me in a different method that helps me learn best?
  • What should I bring to our lessons, and how long does a lesson last?
  • How many types of flute music can you teach me?
  • Can I get a copy of the schedule and rates?
  • If I have to miss a lesson due to an emergency, what should I do?
  • Can I pick some songs I want to learn?
  • Do you help students audition, and how many of your students have made it?

My daughter (age 8) has been taking piano lessons at the DaVinci Center for 2 years. It's truly the best investment we've made for her. She loves piano and loves her teacher, Maria! The Creations Conert, local gigs and the Multiple Piano Festival are icing on the cake! Maria is an outstanding teacher, patient, kind, very very talented, organized, and knows how to connect with the kids. We are so lucky to have The DaVinci school in our community!!

The Wyoming Elite Music Academy of the Arts, now ELITE MUSIC ACADEMY OF THE ARTS , is the best music academy for children, teens, and adults! Joyce is the most fantastic piano, vocal/singing instructor my daughter and I have ever had! My daughter started piano and singing lessons online (via the Internet) with Joyce at age 5 and has absolutely loved every minute of it! Now, she is 9, and has decided to finish her voice and piano courses! Even Joyce's online lessons are fun, engaging, encouraging, and filled with important information and practice activities...and that makes my daughter want to do better each time, and even practice every day! I find myself on a similar path. I have progressed immensely in piano, and for the first time, with Joyce's online piano lessons, I have felt I have been truly learning how to play the piano well. I have learned more music theory than I ever thought was possible! My daughter and I feel so lucky to have found such an amazing musician and instructor who has in the past even collaborated with so many top notch world renowned musicians, and Maestros... and she has been our instructor! Beginners, intermediate, and Advanced students of all ages will achieve superb musical progress here! We look forward to continuing to take lessons with Joyce! Both this Academy and Joyce come highly recommended! For online or in person lessons, the Elite Music Academy of the Arts and Ms. Joyce are absolutely the best!
