Megan O. says, "Heidi is so genuinely caring and attentive no matter what skill level you go into lessons with. I had no formal teaching prior to working with Heidi, and she made me feel so comfortable and confident in my abilities right off the bat. She cares so genuinely about her students, both as students and individuals - and always made me feel right at home with her, through both in person lessons and virtual. On top of that, Heidi was very flexible in how we worked together - and was incredibly patient with my schedule through a job change and physical move. Working with Heidi was an amazing experience I would recommend to anyone looking to improve their musical abilities." Read more

Hello! I've been teaching guitar and piano in the Seattle area for about twenty years now. I specialize in beginner students, but I am also available to help hone your technique if you're already off and running. I am classically trained, but I can teach any genre. I generally like to get to know what kind of music my student likes, and base the lessons off of that material. That way, everyone is having fun! Music is and should be fun, but practice is definitely the key to learning! I earned a BA in Music in 2002 and more recently completed a Masters in Teaching and Learning in 2015. I look forward to working with you and learning about the t...

  • Mastering the 12-bar blues progression and blues scales
  • Learning unique techniques like string bending, slides, and vibrato

What age is best to start blues guitar lessons?

Children can start blues guitar lessons between the ages of 6 to 10 years old at the earliest. The best time is whenever they can hold the instrument easily and have the hand strength to press on the strings.

Adults of all ages can learn to play blues guitar with the right instruction and regular practice.

How many blues guitar lessons do I need?

The number of blues guitar lessons you need all depends on what you're aiming for and how long you practice. Beginners typically learn how to play a simple song in 2 to 6 months on average. However, mastering blues guitar takes at least 4 to 10 years.

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

If you want to find the best blues guitar lessons for you, then look at teachers nearby on the Lessons website. You can also check out guitar lessons at your local music shops. Before you choose a guitar teacher, remember to do these things:

  • Check prices from 3 different teachers and ask what they'll teach you.
  • Read what others said about them on Google and on the Lessons website.
  • Ask for a list of other people they've taught to see if they're good.
  • For kids, ask other moms and dads what their kids say about the teacher.
  • Get a plan on paper about when your lessons will be before you start.
  • Pay a little at first to see if you like the teacher before you pay for a whole month.

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

To find the best guitar teacher, you could ask these questions:

  • What type of music degree do you have?
  • How long have you been teaching blues guitar?
  • Can I have one lesson for free to see how I like it?
  • What are the ages of most of your students?
  • Which kind of blues guitar and equipment should I buy to practice with?
  • Will you give me some finger patterns to practice at home?
  • How much should I practice at home between lessons?
  • What books should I get, and do you know where I could find used ones?
  • How many different blues guitar techniques can you teach?
  • If I'm struggling with learning, can you change the way you teach me?
  • What should I bring to class, and how long is each lesson?
  • Can I have a copy of our class plan, agreement, and how much it costs?
  • If I have an urgent problem and need to cancel, what happens?
  • Can I choose some songs that I want to learn?

I started classical guitar lessons with Mary a few months ago and the experience has been so wonderful. I really feel that she cares about me as a student which is very encouraging. I have previous experience playing the harp but am an absolute beginner on guitar. Mary immediately knew what things would be harder for me and what things I would already know without her teaching. Before starting with Mary I had tried just googling chords and guitar tabs to just memorize the fingering for some songs to play with people, but I didn't know the notes or what I was doing really. After learning from her I understand basic music theory finally! No one ever really explained it to me before. Also, after three months I not only know my way around all the notes but also am starting to have a feel for how my hand needs to move around the board when I am playing in different keys. Also her emphasis of legato and good fingering at the beginning is so helpful because it have become quite natural. Ursula Peter's books is very good for a beginner! I'm excited to start playing more complicated pieces soon.

Heidi has been my private music teacher for more years than I can count on my fingers (14 years). Through all my phases, (elementary - university) she has supported me so much. I play the flute, and when I was first learning it took a while, but Heidi was kind and patient and let me have all the time in the world to learn. Heidi is kind and thoughtful, an attentive listener, and cares lots for the musical community. Her taste in music is phenomenal, and she cares deeply about collaboration and listening to what her students have to say. I have never given up because of Heidi, she's the best teacher I've ever had. Highly recommend! 10/10!
