You may not know this - or never stopped to think about it - but two people can pick up the same exact guitar, plug it into the exact same amp, strum the same chord, but achieve different results. Additionally, a person who has never played an instrument and has zero understanding of music theory can't tell you how to play their favorite song, but chances are they can tell if you're playing it wrong. These concepts are why music is the universal language. In the first scenario: no two people will ever have identical voices and use identical vocabulary. In the second: even if a person doesn't understand the language you're speaking they...

Shannon W. says, "Celeste has been an awesome teacher! I actually first contacted her for my son, but I was getting a little ahead of myself. My son is not even 2! :) So she encouraged me to take lessons as it would be great for when my son is finally old enough. I'm so glad I signed up. I've been wanting to take lessons for a long time anyway. She's super patient and goes at my pace, and really funny! :) I always walk away feeling like I've progressed and have clear instructions on what I need to work on. I really recommend her!" Read more

You may not know this - or haven't noticed this - but, two people can pick up the exact same guitar and strum the same chord and sound differently. My philosophy with music instruction is to focus on quality of the notes you play, not the quantity. Everyone wants to be able to shred, but chances are your favorite songs are not your favorites because of a face melting solo. Your ability to play the guitar will only ever be limited by your muscle memory and ability to apply music theory. I'll customize a plan to get you hearing results quickly. The best way to stay motivated in learning is being able to hear your progress. I hold that abo

Music is a language, you need people to practice and expand your vocabulary. The more people you play with, the better you are. That's how I learned! Over the past 5 years I've asked everyone who's played an instrument to teach me a little bit of their personality. This translates to a very fun, non-lesson type of curriculum. I'm here for you, and whatever you need to learn, we will learn together. :) Let's chat !

Your classical guitar questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.

How much do classical guitar lessons cost near me?

Most classical guitar lessons cost $35 to $70 per session for durations of 30 to 60 minutes. One-on-one lessons typically cost between $45 and $70 per hour, whereas group sessions are a more affordable option at $25 to $35 per class.

For those who prefer a digital classroom, online lessons cost $35 to $55 per hour. Monthly ongoing instruction costs $170 to $315 with a prepaid discount.

Why should I take classical guitar lessons?

You should take classical guitar lessons if you have an acoustic guitar and want to learn how to play classical concertos or Spanish-style music with fingerpicking.

Classical guitar lessons teach you how to:

  • Use nylon-string guitars and strum with the fingers instead of a pick
  • Develop your fingers to focus on complex fingerpicking techniques
  • Understand classical music theory and sight-reading

At what age should I start classical guitar lessons?

Children generally begin their classical guitar journey between the ages of 6 to 10, or as soon as they can hold the instrument well with enough hand strength to press the strings. Adults of all ages can master the instrument with the correct guidance and consistent practice.

How many classical guitar lessons do I need?

The number of weekly classical guitar lessons you need will depend on your personal goals and dedication to practice. A beginner might grasp a simple song within 2 to 6 months, but acquiring proficiency like a professional requires 4 to 10 years on average.

How do I find the best classical guitar lessons near me?

You can find proficient classical guitar tutors nearby by looking at the listings here on the Lessons platform. Sometimes teachers ara available through local music stores too.

Before hiring your tutor, always:

  • Obtain quotes from a minimum of 3 teachers and clarify what they teach.
  • Review feedback about them on Google and the Lessons site.
  • Request a reference list of their past students.
  • Ask fellow parents about their children's experiences with the tutor.
  • Secure a written agreement and schedule prior to the first session.
  • Make small initial payments to gauge the tutor's compatibility before committing to a full month.

What questions do I ask when choosing a classical guitar teacher?

Ask these pertinent questions to help you pick a classical guitar teacher:

  • Did you study music formally, and what qualifications do you have?
  • How many years have you been teaching classical guitar?
  • Could I have a trial lesson to see if your teaching method works for me?
  • What is the typical age range of your students?
  • Which model of acoustic guitar should I purchase?
  • Will you assign homework, and how much practice is required?
  • What type of strings are best for beginners?
  • Which books should I buy for learning classical guitar?
  • Can you accommodate different learning styles?
  • What essentials should I bring to class, and how long is each session?
  • Can I have a written copy of our class schedule?
  • What is your policy for missed classes?
  • Am I allowed to suggest songs that I would like to learn?
