Anna S. says, "I am so appreciative that Alex made me comfortable to start up lessons as an adult student. Taking a 20-year hiatus from piano made the lessons feel so intimidating. But Alex really met me where I was, balancing my comfort level while pushing me a little further. This style of teaching and learning has been a vast improvement to actually understanding the language of the sheet music rather than slowly reading it, note by note. I never thought I’d be in my 30s participating in recitals with some very talented children, but here we are! I am a year in to my lessons with Alex and plan to remain a student as long as he’ll have me!" Read more

Stacy C. says, "My son is 14 and has been taking lessons for about 6 months. His progress has been amazing and he has loved every minute! The school does a good job of "mixing up" the lessons between actual songs and music theory. This keeps the students engaged. Also, our teacher (Dave) helped my son prep for his high school jazz band audition. He ended up being the only freshman to make the band! The school and its teachers are very professional and well-organized -- but more importantly, they are nice people who actually care about their students. Can't recommend them highly enough!!"

Your Guitar Lessons questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.

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?

Reviews for Cuyahoga Falls guitar teachers

Maureen M.
My 7-year-old son has been studying with Alex for over two years. During last winter's recital, I was so inspired not only by my son's performance, but also by the other students present (several of whom were adult learners), that I decided to seek lessons for myself. Based upon the experience with my son, I didn't think I could love AMI more than I did, but now I know I was wrong. I love learning myself. It's incredible that AMI is able to teach each of us where we are, according to our different levels of understanding and skill sets. It's like we have lessons personally tailored to each of us. And we both are convinced we're the most amazing pianists ever (LOL). AMI not only has the ability to instruct varied skills sets, but also different ages and personalities. There is no one-size-fits-all approach here. The other thing I absolutely adore is the fact that my son played an original piece, with accompanying musicians (a violin and cello instructor) during his 2nd recital! And trust me, it's not because my son is that amazing. It's because AMI is that forward thinking and supportive of the learning process. As an educator myself, I truly can't say enough about this incredible Institute and I'm so, so grateful I got in "on the ground floor" before there wasn't room for me on their roster. Every instructor I have met, every aspect of this entire organization is nothing but top notch- and personable, friendly, skilled and awesome (and no, I was not paid to write any of these things!).
