Rancelli B. says, "Working with Nicolle exceeds beyond expectations coming from a beginner of the violin. Nicolle makes learning a new instrument less intimating, fun, and accessible. Also, her program gives you everything you need; the online do it yourself pace, and the once a week virtual group sessions with her; you get the best of both worlds. She gives you every tool you need to learn and changes your whole view about learning an instrument. You not only learn how to play the instrument, but tips and tricks on how to stay motivated, she personally checks in on your progress, and gives advice to tailor the learning for the individual. Its such a personal experience. I couldn't recommend her enough." Read more

I love discovering things about drumming and music with students; I love learning together. I enjoy helping students assimilate knowledge, then imitate other players, then ultimately innovate and find their own voice. I also enjoy passing on my perspective and experience to students, from being a student myself, to playing in all kinds of bands and shows, to being a band teacher and festival adjudicator, and being a leader of my own bands. I have learned a lot of "life lessons" through all this that I wish I had someone prepare me for....

I have been teaching piano and theory for nearly 25 years. The first lessons I gave were in Hobart, Tasmania Australia as adjunct faculty to the Tasmanian Conservatorium of Music. This was during my final year in my under graduate degree in piano performance. Upon taking residence at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music to complete my Master's in performance, I took on new students as a private instructor. I developed greatly as a piano instructor and developed a passion for teaching. Watching and listening to students as their techniques grow and expand is a marvelous thing. My instructors in piano taught in the great traditions of their te...

Hello! I am a piano doctoral candidate in piano performance major at the University of Utah. My major teachers have included International Chopin Piano Competition Prize Winner Margarita Shevchenko and the National Winner of the MTNA Piano Competition, contemporary American pianist Thomas Rosenkranz. I've been teaching piano for more than 10 years. I have a lot of experience teaching kids and adults as well. I believe as a music educator, I should inspire as well as support students’ broad aspirations. I bring my experiences from piano music and I use this in teaching whenever I can to expand students’ understanding of roles, skills, and wor

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?

I'm an adult beginner and was a little hesitant at first to pick up something spontaneously. Nicolle makes things so easy to understand and she really guides you through things that you can improve on. She provides a lot of exercises to make learning so much easier and is always available when you're having trouble or just have any questions. I'd highly recommend learning with her no matter how old you are!

My 16 years old son and 14 years daughter have been with Tonya for more than 5 years. They started with 30 minutes each to 45 minutes each now. Tonya is ALWAYS very welcoming and the ambiance to learn piano is positive and inspiring. My children have learned so much and look forward to their weekly visits. Tonya always sends home some pieces to practice on and is always so patient when them. She works at my children’s paces, but also encouraging them to try harder music pieces. I love hearing my children practice at home, at recitals, and at competitions. They are inspired to do good and learn because Tonya inspires them to do so.

I’m 48 years old and was a self-taught musician who dabbled in composition, but I didn’t know how to read or write music and had no knowledge of theory. I’ve been studying piano with Robin for a little over a year and have learned a tremendous amount. When I went to my first lesson, I couldn’t read a single note on the piano. Now, I’m at an early intermediate level, studying both classical music and jazz with her. I’m so proud of my progress and excited to see how far I’ll go in the next year. Robin is truly the best teacher.

Jackson is amazing! So glad we found him. My daughter started lessons at 16, and is learning a lot. Jackson does a great job keeping me up to date how she is doing. He even volunteered to help us look at a used drum set, and actually helped us bring them home and set them up. Outstanding !!

Excellent Teacher! Ms. Draper has studied music herself and the art of teaching music for a life time. I'm continually impressed with her ability to build on her students strengths while finding what needs growth and giving personalized instruction to move them forward in skill and love for music. She is endlessly patient and positive. I appreciate that Ms. Draper is continually learning as a professional musician personally and passes on new idea's and methods to her students on a regular basis. We've been with Draper Music Studio's for many years and rate our experience as excellent!
