Question 1

What is the right age to start private lessons?

Accepted Answer

I have taught kids as young as 5 & 6 year olds, but ages 7 and up is the ideal time to start.

Question 2

How long are the lessons and classes?

Accepted Answer

Classes are once a week for a half hour session. I do hour sessions in special cases.

Question 3

What if I have to miss a lesson/class?

Accepted Answer

It’s simple. Let me know as far in advance as possible. If it’s within reason, we can reschedule the class. Sometimes it’s just a missed class, sorry.

Question 4

Do we have the same time every week?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you will be paying for a weekly time slot.

Question 5

Can I change my time once I start my lessons?

Accepted Answer

Of course you can. I will do my best to work with you, but it’s not best to keep changing times in order to maintain a consistent schedule.

Question 6

Is there a minimum number of lessons that I have to take?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you pay for four lessons at a time. This is only fair for the student to give them a true feel of how I teach and what they can expect to get out of guitar lessons. This also assures you of a weekly time slot.

Question 7

Can I take a lesson every other week?

Accepted Answer

Yes you can when my schedule permits. The difference is that lessons would be an hour every other week opposed to half an hour.

Question 8

Are group lessons available? How do they differ from private lessons?

Accepted Answer

Group lessons are possible. Class length and payment are different compared to individual
lessons.

Question 9

What do I need to start taking private lessons?

Accepted Answer

All you need is your own guitar (electric or acoustic) and some picks. In studio, there is a guitar amp available for you to use.

Question 10

How about books/materials?

Accepted Answer

Based off of our 1st lesson, I will recommend a book or learning material according to you skill level.
