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!

Weekly guitar lessons for my 4.5yo son

$30

North Melbourne VIC, Australia

9th Jan 2024

My son is interested in learning the guitar and he’s obsessed with The Rolling Stones. No joke, the Stones are all he’ll listen to. He’s 4 and a half years old which is very young and even though we tried telling him to wait until he’s 6, he’s pretty determined. He can read fluently and has excellent verbal skills but like a lot of 4 year olds, his moods can be unpredictable. But overall he is super sweet and funny! We’re looking for FUN, casual lessons from someone who loves teaching kids. It would be great tostart lessons for him to just understand the very basics - playing some notes, finger placement, strumming etc. He attends music classes every weekend so has an understanding of music. Plus he knows dozens of Rolling Stones songs word for word and the tunes. Things to address in your response if youre keen: - Are you interested in teaching someone as young as 4.5yo? - Would weekly lessons be appropriate? 30, 45 or 60 mins? - Are you able to come to our place in North Melbourne? Likely a weekend or weeknight around 6pm? -Do you have any ways to make the lessons fun and engaging? We just want to encourage his interests and for him to enjoy himself. - What kind of guitar do you suggest he starts on? He has a few toy guitars but open to getting an smaller sized, not too crazy expensive acoustic guitar or ukelele. Thanks so much! Looking forward to chatting more about this. ps. We can do the first lesson through airtakser as a trial and if it’s a good fit for both of you we can make it regular thing. - Due date: Flexible

Guitar teacher/coach - teach and inspire me to play more

$50

Moonee Ponds VIC 3039, Australia

1st Aug 2023

So I've been playing for a decade or so and know a bunch of the common chord shapes etc and scales (or used to) - basically I want someone who can teach me to play some stuff that I like to hear. I'd prefer to avoid the old standards re songs and soloing etc but more like rhythmic techniques with chords/embellishments etc. Happy to lear songs as long as I don't have to get too precise as I don't have the patience! Just the main idea is usually fine. Ideally we'd have a regular spot for 30-60 mins. Taste wise I like late 60s/early 70s, 90s indie/garage. Mick Ronson, Jack White but there is loads in between - Due date: Flexible
