I can’t thank you enough Beth, for making me realize how much singing potential I have and how much easier it is on the vocals when singing is done right.

Vanda M. says, " The teacher I've hired is Emmanuel. He's very knowledgeable and professional. He tailors the lesson specifically for you, how you learn, and is always encouraging and uplifting. I myself am a little slower at learning but he doesn't make me feel embarrassed, or intimidated instead If I don't get something he explains it in a way that I understand in a positive way and rejoices in every accomplishment. So I always leave knowing what I've been taught and feel confident. You will not find quality and knowledge like they offer here anywhere else with the prices they offer. Do Not miss this great opportunity. I definitely recommend Solace Music School! 🎼🎵🎸🎹🎙️🎶🙌😀 Also to the students it is our job to practice what our teacher teaches us, and if we truly don't get something speak up. ☺️ If we don't practice everyday we will see small improvements if any, but if we practice everyday we will learn much more and progress at a faster pace. However I also know that with the right teacher you can and will accomplish and progress so much more and faster than other teachers. I'm glad I found Solace Music School! I'm sure you will be glad too. :) " Read more

Hi, I’m Jason. I’ve been teaching since 1993. I’ve played guitar professionally for the army, and my degree is in music. You’ll learn how to play the guitar through a method I created known as “Song Paths.” We’ ll choose a song you like and simplify it so you can be playing by the end of the first lesson!

Dusty M. says, "I am thrilled to share my experience with my incredible cello teacher, Ms. Washburn, whose expertise and passion for music have transformed my journey as a cellist. From the very first lesson, it was clear that I was in the hands of a master. Her deep understanding of the instrument, combined with an infectious enthusiasm for cello music, has made every session not just a lesson but an inspiring musical adventure. What sets my Ms. Washburn apart is her personalized approach. She takes the time to understand my individual goals and learning style, tailoring lessons to ensure I am both challenged and supported. Whether it's tackling complex pieces or perfecting technique, she provides constructive feedback that motivates me to push my boundaries. Her patience and encouragement create an environment where I feel comfortable making mistakes and learning from them. Moreover, the knowledge Ms. Washburn brings to the table is astounding. I particularly appreciate her emphasis on musicality, helping me to not only play the notes but to truly express emotions through my music. In addition to her exceptional teaching skills, Ms. Washburn fosters a genuine love for the cello and its rich history. She often shares fascinating anecdotes about composers and pieces, which adds depth to my understanding and appreciation of the music I play. Each lesson leaves me feeling inspired and eager to practice. If you're considering taking cello lessons, I wholeheartedly recommend Ms. Washburn. Her dedication, expertise, and passion for music make her a standout mentor. With her guidance, you won't just learn to play the cello; you'll develop a lifelong love for music that will resonate in your heart and soul. Don’t miss the opportunity to learn from such an exceptional teacher! -Dusty M." Read more

Danny has taught my son since he was 10 years old and he is now 15 and still taking lessons. Danny's love for music is infectious and his knowledge of the violin is top notch. He is a great teacher and even as my son's interests have broadened, Danny always encourages him to use his time wisely and shows him how to practice efficiently. My son and I both now take piano lessons from Danny also. We love Danny and we love Rock out Loud Studio. I plan on on having Danny and the Studio in our lives for many years to come." 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?

Beth is an amazing teacher! I’ve been going to her for the past 10 months and have noticed a significant change in my range and control over my voice. She is very personable and puts in the time and effort to make sure you reach your goal. I’ve taken vocal lessons from other teachers over the years and she is by far the best teacher I’ve had.

Rock Out Loud Music Studio is the place to be for music fans. My daughter goes here and she's taught Violin by Daniel, the maestro who has such passion and dedication for Music. Daniel's guidance has led my daughter to be very successful in Orchestra at school. He creates a safe space for mistakes and encourages students to learn from them on every lesson. He also taught her Piano and she's since grasped that skill and has been using it successfully. I wholeheartedly recommend Daniel as a teacher and the studio for whoever is looking for music teachers in this area.

Daniel Finch is a wonderful piano instructor. He has been teaching my son Josh for several years now during which he has patiently worked with him no matter the pace at which he progresses. Daniel works hard to teach music concepts in a personalized way, so that each student can understand. He also wants everyone to enjoy learning and playing the piano, so he helps them choose music that they know that is challenging while still being achievable. I have recommended he to many of my friends, and will continue to do so in the future.
