Molly N. says, "My son has been taking guitar lessons from Jon for four months and has learned so much already. Jon is a patient and caring teacher who always takes time to listen to my son’s questions and addresses them in a way my son can clearly understand. Jon makes learning guitar fun for my son and keeps his attention for the entire 45-minute lesson. By taking the time to get to know him personally, Jon has been able to choose songs that my son wants to learn. He really strives to tailor each session to my son’s needs and interests. Jon’s encouragement has given my son more confidence and the desire to succeed. We are grateful to have found such a wonderful teacher!" Read more

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?

Fredy C.
Full disclosure: I've known Jomaliz for several years now. When I found out she opened her own studio I was immediately interested, simply based on the fact that she's someone I already felt comfortable with. I've been teaching myself to sing since 2016 but I've never had lessons before. To be even more transparent I also have struggled with my voice ever since I've began self teaching. After a month and a half of taking lessons here at Voce Music Studios I have seen my voice progress in ways I didn't think I was physically capable of. It's that feeling you get when you fall in love with music for the first time, though the specific excitement I've had is hard to put into words. I want to be clear that all of this is 100% truthful. I gain nothing from lying about my personal results and doing so would be a huge disservice to not only my friend who has worked hard to get to where she's at, but to anybody who's considering classes. This has been an insane difference maker. I can't recommend this place enough. You really are in good hands here and I'm so happy I can say that.
