Our guitar teachers teach rock, blues, metal, country and classical guitar lessons in Tucson, AZ. We teach on electric and acoustic guitar. Beginner students can expect to work on chords, simple songs and melodies, sight reading and theory. We balance musicianship and fun by making sure that each lesson you are challenged with a new technical or theory concept, but always end with something fun such as your favorite riff or song. We use a variety of guitar method books to accomplish this and encourage students to bring CDs or their iPod to their guitar lesson to learn their favorite tunes.
Our teachers are experts at teaching beginning guitar students. You’ll start by learning single string melodies and easy chord forms. This will enable you to start strumming along and playing the melody right away. You’ll then progress to note reading and tablature, and open chord chord forms that span all six strings. Our teachers are comfortable with the most popular beginner guitar methods including, Hal Leonard, Mel Bay, and FJH.
We can teach students as young as age 5. It’s very important to begin on a child-sized guitar if you’re under the age of 10-12. Our teachers will assess what size guitar you need in your first lesson and give you advice on where to find a good guitar. They will also focus on materials that are appropriate for young, small hands and bodies such as three string chord forms, and single string melodies.
