Rochelle F. says, "Dear Sir or Madam, I have known Laneigha Shuman for seventeen years, seven of which I studied piano and music theory under her direction and teaching. As a teacher, Laneigha excelled at teaching children. Though she also taught adults, her passion was with the children she taught. Her ability to connect with children and make the learning experience fun is superior. As her student, I remember her being very patient and kind when I did not understand theory or play to the best of my ability. She was always positive and encouraging. I cannot remember a negative word during her lessons and I always left feeling good and accomplished. As a child with learning disabilities, that meant the world to me. She always took great care in giving her students individualized lessons plans based on their abilities. As a slower learning student she was able to recognize my strengths and weaknesses and cater to those needs and help me focus. She also taught very young children all the way up to adult-aged students, all with their own learning curves and personalized lessons. Throughout my piano lessons with Laneigha I was awarded multiple trophies, medals, and ribbons in State competitions. Because of her teachings, positivity, and encouragement I went on to excel in music and became a Drum Major of Duncan High School band in 2004 and 2005. I also credit Laneigha for my success as a professional adult. Because of her extraordinary teaching technique, positivity and encouragement I continued my education and despite any learning deficits, I graduated Nursing school and have become a successful nurse. I believe her skills, experience, and passion for teaching children make her an excellent candidate for a music teacher at your school and believe your students will excel under her direction and teaching. I recommend Laneigha to you without reservation. If you have any further questions with regard to her background or qualifications, please do not hesitate to contact me. Kind Regards, Rochelle Facundo [email protected]" Read more

Your Music Lessons questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.

How much do music lessons cost?

Music lessons cost $40 to $90 per hour. Most teachers offer weekly lessons in order to provide regular feedback, keep students motivated, and provide enough opportunities to learn new techniques and pieces of music. More frequent lessons do not provide enough time to practice and master skills between lessons.

To save money on music lessons consider group lessons, which are often cheaper than private lessons and allow you to learn from other students. Another option is to take online lessons which tend to be more affordable than in-person lessons and can be a great way to learn from a qualified teacher that isn't local. Finally, look for scholarships or grants to help pay for music lessons.

At what age can you start music lessons?

The best age to start music lessons depends on the individual and their interests. Most experts agree that children can start learning music as early as 3 or 4 years old when they can communicate and follow instructions. There is no age that is too late to take music lessons – even seniors can benefit from learning or improving their musical skills.

Studies have shown that children who are exposed to music at an early age have better language skills, memory, and problem-solving skills. Music lessons help improve fine motor skills like hand-eye coordination and finger dexterity which are important for other activities like writing and drawing. Learning to play an instrument can also build a child's self-confidence and help to develop a child's creativity.

How long does it take to learn an instrument?

The amount of time it takes to learn an instrument depends on the instrument, the student's age, and the amount of time they practice. In general, it takes several months to a year to learn the basics of most instruments including how to read music and play basic scales and chords. With regular practice, students can expect to play simple songs within a few months.

Piano, guitar, and percussion instruments are some of the easier instruments to learn. Strings and horn instruments take a bit longer to learn. Becoming proficient at any instrument takes several years of lessons and regular practice.

Do I need an instrument at home to take music lessons?

No, you do not need an instrument at home to take music lessons, but it does make it easier to practice and improve your skills. Without an instrument at home, you will need to find an instrument to practice between lessons if you hope to improve.

Before investing in any musical instrument, you will want to talk with the music teacher to find the instrument that is right for you. Guitars are a popular instrument for beginners since they are relatively inexpensive to buy. The flute is another simple instrument to learn and is a good choice for students who want to learn to play an instrument quickly. Pianos are a more costly instrument but are a popular choice for families since everyone can enjoy playing the same instrument.

How do online music lessons work?

Online music lessons are similar to in-person lessons, only the teacher and student are not in the same physical location. Using video conferencing platforms such as Skype or Zoom, the teacher and students can communicate with each other from the privacy of their homes.

In order to take advantage of the affordable online lessons, you need a computer and internet connection with good audio and video quality to avoid frustration. The teacher and student join the video call and the lesson proceeds in the same way they would for an in-person lesson. Online music lessons require more focus and patience and are not suggested for very young students.

What questions should I ask a music teacher?

Here are some important questions you should ask a music teacher before you start taking lessons:

  • What is your teaching style?
  • What is your experience teaching music?
  • What are your rates?
  • How long are your lessons?
  • What is your availability?
  • What are your expectations for students?
  • Can you provide references from your current and past students?

How do I choose a music teacher?

Choosing a qualified music teacher is important for those wanting to learn or develop their musical skills. Find a teacher that fits your schedule, budget, and learning style by following these recommendations:

  • Look for a teacher with a degree in music or years of experience teaching your preferred instrument.
  • Make sure the teacher with a teaching style that suits you. For example, if you learn better with a more formal teacher that focuses on technique, don't choose a teacher that is more relaxed and focuses on creative, free-style playing.
  • Find a teacher that is affordable for your budget and has availability for lessons that fit your schedule.
  • Confirm that the teacher will help you reach your goals whether it is to learn a new instrument, read music, learn music theory, or just have fun.How do I choose a music teacher?

This is an incredible school! Owner Jennifer is an experienced, excellent piano teacher, and she continues to recruit top-notch professionals for every instrument. Enrichment courses offered in art, drama, and other disciplines keep popping up on her facebook page. Every time I'm in the lobby I hear parents express how much they enjoy the school - many drive awhile to get there. Five stars!!

I grew up taking piano lessons with Mrs. Shuman (I want to say for about 12 years?), and I loved them! She taught me the basics, and then we branched out to learn a wide variety of music styles. Her lessons are half on the piano, and half learning musical theory. This served me well as I joined choir in junior high, and played french horn in band. I was eventually the drum major for my high school band, and I'm positive it was the instruction I received from Mrs. Shuman that made it possible for me to succeed as a musician. She took us to piano contests each year and through her instruction I received Superior ratings in piano and theory every year from junior high through high school. I even received a music scholarship of $5,000 per year for college. I joined her piano ensembles on occasion, and we played duets, trios, and quartets. What a great learning experience. I have two favorite things I would like to mention about taking lessons. First, Mrs. Shuman hosts the best piano recitals! She let us choose from her expansive piano library to find songs that suited our level and style, and the recitals were often themed which made them a lot of fun as a kid. Second, she would take us to a local restaurant and let us play piano for tips! I used to love playing, and earned quite a bit of money as well. It was highly motivating to learn a wide variety of songs so that I could play for a longer amount of time. Your kids would be lucky to have a wonderful teacher in Mrs. Shuman. I highly recommend her!
