Christina R. says, "Jessie is amazing to work with. A lot of people can sing and play, but not everyone can teach. And she can teach! From the moment we started together, she has always made me feel incredibly comfortable. Singing is a very vulnerable thing, and she never made me feel judged or like I needed to be perfect. In fact, she has helped me let go of my need to be perfect while singing and I feel as though my voice is stronger and better than it has ever been. I am now way less shy to take risks with my voice and I feel fully supported by her when I do. She has also been adaptable to my goals. In the last year that we have been working together, I have picked up other styles of singing and she has brought an open heart to me exploring those and has helped me develop skills to translate to all different forms. I think her strong suit is that she really cares about the emotional aspect of singing and understands that so much of it is mindset. She isn’t afraid to tackle that and knows that you can learn all the techniques you want but if your mindset isn’t right it will be so much harder. This has really expanded the way I relate to my voice. I feel really lucky to have Jessie as my teacher." Read more

Hello! My name is Jamari Eaden, and I’m a 25 year old guitarist from Berklee College of Music, who began playing the guitar at the age of 15. Starting out focused on Rock as well as Blues, I steered towards genres including Jazz, Funk, R&B, Hip-Hop, and Neo-Soul in later years. My influences cover a wide spectrum of guitarists; such as George Benson, Wes Montgomery, Mansur Brown, Kurt Rosenwinkel, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Johnson, Joe Pass, Isaiah Sharkey, Morgan Burrs, Tom Misch, and the list goes on! With my Rock background, I developed a style synonymous to Jazz Fusion. My experience working and playing professionally established a solid foundat

Theodore A. says, "Thani helped me to make more intentional musical decisions by asking good, thought-provoking questions. He helped me to develop my own musical instincts and tastes, and he did a great job of showing me all the possible directions I could take with a musical work. He might share his opinion on any given subject, but doesn't ever shoot down my ideas. He instead takes my thoughts and helps me flesh them out into meaningful music. He's extremely knowledgeable and experienced in the realms of music theory and composition; I highly recommend him to musicians of all skill levels. He's very patient and constructive." Read more

Your acoustic guitar questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.

How much do acoustic guitar lessons cost near me?

Most acoustic guitar lessons cost $35 to $70 per session for 30 to 60 minutes. Private class prices are $45 to $70 per hour and give students the most attention. Group guitar lessons cost $25 to $35 per session for a collaborative learning environment with less personal attention.

Subscriptions for ongoing lessons are available from $170 to $315 per month.

Are acoustic guitar lessons worth it?

Acoustic guitar lessons are worth it because the structured teaching style motivates students and enhances faster progress. A private instructor also helps to prevent the development of poor techniques common in self-taught musicians.

What age is good to start acoustic guitar lessons?

You can start acoustic guitar lessons for children from ages 6 to 10 years old while adults can start lessons at any age. The journey of mastering the guitar is dependent on your dedication to practice and your teacher's qualifications.

How many acoustic guitar lessons do I need?

The amount of acoustic guitar lessons you need will depend on what you want to accomplish and how frequently you practice. Learning a simple song takes 2 to 6 months on average. However, mastering the guitar like a professional musician takes 4 to 10 years.

Is there a difference between electric and acoustic guitar lessons?

There are many differences between electric and acoustic guitar lessons because these instruments have unique features.

An electric guitar requires you to learn:

  • How to use an amplifier
  • How to work with effects and foot pedals
  • What makes a wide range of sounds for rock, metal, blues, or jazz
  • Techniques like power chords, palm muting, and note bending

However, learning to play an acoustic guitar is simpler because it doesn't connect to amplifiers or cables. Acoustic guitar playing uses different finger techniques to make a resonant sound suitable for folk, country, pop, and blues music.

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

To find the most suitable acoustic guitar lessons, you can peruse the list of nearby teachers here on the Lessons website. Also, don't overlook the potential of local music stores for guitar lessons.

Before settling on a guitar teacher, it's crucial to:

  • Review the prices from at least 3 different teachers.
  • Examine reviews about them on Google and Lessons.
  • Ask for references from other students they've taught.
  • Consult with other parents to gauge their children's experience with the teacher.
  • Get a written schedule and contract prior to the first lesson.
  • Evaluate the teacher's compatibility before signing up for a full month.

What questions do I ask when choosing an acoustic guitar teacher?

To choose the best acoustic guitar teacher, it helps to pose these questions:

  • What music-related degrees do you have?
  • Is there an option for a complimentary first session to see if we're a good fit?
  • What is the extent of your experience in teaching guitar?
  • Which type of acoustic guitar would be most appropriate for me to practice on?
  • What's the average age range of your student base?
  • Will you assign finger drills for me to practice outside of lessons?
  • How much independent practice do you recommend between classes?
  • Which specific textbooks should I get?
  • How many styles of guitar music can you teach?
  • Could you adjust your instructional methods if I'm having difficulties?
  • What should I bring to our classes?
  • How long is each session?
  • Could I get a copy of our class timetable, agreement, and terms of payment?
  • What is your protocol to cancel a class due to an unforeseen circumstance?
  • Is there flexibility to add some of my favorite songs into the curriculum?

I love that they had the ability to come to my house to work around my crazy schedule!

In my short time with Jeff, I have learned as much or more than I had in 3 years of prior guitar lessons. He draws from a wealth of knowledge about the guitar, music theory, and the science behind how we learn. His passion is evident, and it’s clear that he gets as much joy from teaching as I do from learning. Jeff is not for the casual guitar player looking to impress at parties. He’s for people who have a passion for music and want to become true musicians. Given that he doesn’t do this for a living, he’s incentivized to only work with students with whom there is a good personal fit. There’s no harm in giving it a shot - after the session you can decide together if it’s a mutually beneficial partnership. I chose Jeff over several highly-marketed music studios in DFW, and I’m very glad I did.

Jessie has been an amazing music teacher for our two daughters. I'm impressed at how well she works them online and how much they have learned about playing piano. They are both getting really good. And Jessie has such a positive attitude that it motivates the girls to learn more. Thanks for all your awesome work, Jessie!

Jesse is a very patient, attentive teacher. I was nervous about starting cello as a 43-year-old adult, but Jesse makes the whole process approachable. I highly recommend Jesse for students of all ages.
