Top Guitar Lessons related questions

It mostly depends on how fast a learner you are and your dedication and commitment to learning how to play the instrument. Generally, it can take at least one to two months of consistent practice to learn how to play simple musical parts and songs. To acquire basic competence and to be able to learn and grow independently can take at least five months. If you want to be an expert, you should dedicate years of learning.

The duration of a guitar lesson depends on your availability. Beginners can typically start with 30 minutes per session, with one session per week. As you improve and progress, the duration and the frequency of your guitar lessons can increase. Be sure to set up breaks between your sessions for the best results. Talk to your Tasker about your schedule to make sure nothing conflicts with your guitar lessons.

Playing the guitar doesn’t have to do with age. A child can start learning how to play the instrument as soon as they can comfortably hold a guitar appropriate for their size and manage to press down strings independently. This is true with adults as well! As long as you can hold a guitar, you can still learn how to play it!

Yes! You can teach yourself the basics of playing the guitar. It’s possible through the help of learning resources available online. But if you want to improve your guitar skills further and reach your goals as a guitar player, getting a qualified guitar instructor would be the best option. They can also teach you personalised techniques and correct your mistakes to help you grow as a guitarist!

It would be great if you have your own guitar. But if you don’t, you can ask your Tasker if a guitar is included in the lessons, or if you could borrow or rent one from them. Investing in a guitar would also be a good idea, but if you don’t know where to get one, feel free to ask your Tasker for store and brand recommendations.

Your guitar lessons can be paid for via cash or through Airtasker Pay if you prefer cashless transactions. Let your Tasker know which payment method you’d like to use before accepting an offer and scheduling your first lesson. You may also discuss the frequency of payment with your Tasker, whether you plan to pay them after every session, every week, or every month.

Suggested reads about Guitar Lessons

What do guitar lessons include?

Guitar lessons involve learning how to play this particular musical instrument, starting from the fundamentals, all the way through acquiring advanced skills. Whether you want to take rock, jazz, classical guitar, or acoustic guitar lessons, you can have them at a music studio you prefer or at the comfort of your home. You can also have online guitar lessons if it’s more convenient for you. Here are a few things you can expect when booking private guitar lessons near you:

Guitar lessons for kids

Does your kid enjoy playing with their toy guitar? Level up their skills and encourage their interest by taking them to guitar lessons for children! Your instructor can teach them how to play music using a real, child-sized guitar. They can also learn concepts such as guitar anatomy and the name of each guitar string. They can start learning how to strum along with popular nursery rhymes and then progress to learning basic chords.

Learning how to play the guitar and other musical instruments is a valuable skill. You can also get your child into swimming or other sports to keep them mentally and physically active.

Guitar lessons for beginners

Whether you’re learning how to play the guitar for the first time or you’re planning to revisit an old hobby, taking basic guitar lessons for adults is the way to go! Your instructor can teach you how to build strumming techniques and show you some basic open chords. Then, you may progress to learning the F chord, rock chords, power chords, fingerstyle, and blues licks. Guitar teachers can help you play your first songs using different chord combinations! You may also learn guitar tuning and maintenance.

Intermediate guitar lessons

For those who already know the basics but want to refine their skills before going to advanced topics, intermediate guitar lessons are for you! You can learn guitar tricks and techniques to develop your right-hand and left-hand strength and dexterity, use your ears to work out songs and solos, and level up your knowledge on concepts, theories, and scale. Your instructor can teach you to perform an entire repertoire to apply your skills! This is especially beneficial if you’re aiming to produce your own music, using the guitar as the lead instrument.

Advanced guitar lessons

Taking advanced guitar lessons can indeed improve and refine your skills. Here, a professional musician can teach you chord extensions and alternate tunings. You may also learn how to play a collection of riffs and acquire new legato, two-hand tapping, and hybrid picking techniques. Your instructor can introduce you to tools such as a pedalboard to shape your tone and add delays, reverbs, choruses, pitch shifters, among many other cool effects! If you’re serious about playing the guitar, you can get a formal music degree and have a personal tutor help you with your education!

hi! i’m molly, i’m 19 and i’m looking forward to hearing back from you! i’ve been extremely musical my whole life and played probably more than 5 instruments over the course of me being in primary school (i was at an average level for a kid in all of them because i changed instruments quite frequently when i was younger, but i’ve been told i’m a very fast learner!) and i’ve been singing my whole life but since primary school ended, i’ve had to deal with a lot of personal things and i stopped playing instruments and never got around to learning what i actually really wanted to learn the most, which was the electric guitar especially and acoustic. I’ve also wanted to work on my breathing when i’m singing and to stop having a shaky voice sometimes, learn how to go higher and lower in octaves than i’m already able to and have it sound right, stuff like that :) i know this is probably a too long and unnecessary message, but i just wanted to share some quick details about my history with music and what i’m looking to learn so you could know me better :)

Guitar lessons for a 4 and 6 year old

$75

Buderim QLD 4556, Australia

15th Oct 2024

I have 4 and 6 year old boys who are obsessed with their guitars. Most formal music schools won't take them as they're too little. However I'm wondering if there are any semi professional musicians out there who like the idea of spending an hour with them once per fortnight to teach them the basics and help gamify the learning for them. I'm flexible on an hourly rate and would want something reasonably consistent, after school or on the weekend.

My 11 year old is keen to learn the guitar. But he doesn't want to do the boring stuff the do at the lessons in school. He wants someone to teach him the basics but then let him learn to play the songs he likes to listen to. He has done piano before and flute so has a basic understanding of music, but has never picked up a guitar before. I'd be after weekly lessons for 1 hour. can be any day but after school.

Wow. Ann was absolutely incredible. She is not just a great teacher, but clearly just a beautiful all-round person. She really made us feel comfortable and my son loved his first lesson. If anyone else is considering lessons from Ann i'd 100% recommend!!
