Ben's Guitar Lessons
About
Encouraging the creation of music is the most important thing to me. I can give you the know-how of how to play guitar and how to write your own music in an environment that is abslutely judgement free. Along with the guitar lessons I can teach an array of music theory concepts to help you better understand the art, witha whole new appreciation. I've played guitar and have studied music theory from adolescense all the way up into adult life. And I'd love to help you become the musician you want to be. My name is Ben Brookhart and if you have any questions you can reach me at (513) 687-8125 by phone or text 24/7
Thanks and keep on rockin' !

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
We start with just the basics to get you acquainted with the instrument, then work on a few songs that you'd like to learn. From there we venture down whatever path of music youre curious about, whether that is how to write a shredding guitar solo, or how to make and shape your own chords.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have played guitar my whole life and have taken music theory training from high school and unto CCM at UC.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
I do lessons by the hour and depending on how many you want/for how long the price is $20/hour.
How did you get started teaching?
My guitar teacher was a really big influence for me, unlike most guitar teachers he taught me how to write music and not just regurgitate other peoples music. I think this approach created a passion for the art and the instrument that I would like to share with others.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with people from ages 16-23, but old dogs can learn new tricks also.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Find someone you can get along with and makes the lessons enjoyable, because if you aren't enjoying it than what is the point?
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Be honest about what you really want to learn. If you just want to learn Taylor Swift's Greatest Hits then say so, same goes for thos who want to learn all the modes and odd fancy chords of theory.
