I also like that he is helping me with ear training. I've had previous experience with reading music, but he is really expanding my horizons with listening to music and trying to figure it out by using basic principles. This is a way to learn that I hadn't experience before in guitar lessons in the past, and I think it's a great way to learn.
I'm looking forward to many more lessons to come. This has really helped me to enjoy playing the guitar again!

Learn Languages Online and Near You
Ever wanted to pick up a new language? Language classes can help you achieve your goals in the most efficient way possible. Online classes make it easy to stay connected with your ideal foreign language teacher, no matter where in the world they are.
Everyone has their own reasons for taking language classes. You may want to connect with friends better, grow your professional opportunities, or explore new works of art. With every lesson, you or your child will expand your worldview and sense of imagination.
There may be some benefits to learning a new language that you aren’t aware of yet. Let’s take a look at the top reasons why working with an in-person or online language tutor is a great option for students of all ages.
Why Learn Languages Online?
In our
interconnected world, knowing a second language is more important than ever. Whether you’re looking to brush up on your basic skills before traveling abroad or you’d like to be working as a translator someday, private language lessons make it possible. Studying a language is also a great hobby, which has considerable mental benefits.
Learning new words and phrases is a fantastic way to challenge your memory and keep your brain sharp. Adults of all ages can experience a boost in mental acuity when they study with a language tutor, as well as have a great deal of fun! On top of that, you’ll make plenty of new friends on your journey towards fluency.
The benefits of language classes for kids are well known. Children who learn a second language can see higher scores in other subjects such as math, as well as a boost to critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Working with a foreign language teacher can open up your kid’s mind to new cultures and ways of communicating. They’ll even be better equipped to learn a third language in the future!
What Language Lessons Look Like
Everyone’s learning style and linguistic goals are different. So, why stick to one-size-fits-all instructional materials like books and YouTube videos? Working with a private language tutor is the only way to get a personalized lesson plan delivered directly to you in person or online.
Have an important language exam or business trip coming up? You can work with an online language tutor to sharpen your skills from the comfort of your home! Busy kids and parents alike love the convenience and flexibility of online language classes.
Find the Perfect Teacher
You may not have an expert Italian, French, or Japanese tutor in your town, but you can still connect with one online. When you learn languages online, you can easily connect with world-class teachers, no matter where they are. You can get the kinds of insights that only native speakers can provide and get your questions answered in real time.
At TakeLessons, we make it easy to find the perfect language tutor. Simply pick a language and browse our directory of background-checked instructors. You can then check out a teacher’s profile, including their bio and reviews left by students. Feel free to send a message to your prospective teacher to get any questions you may have answered!
No matter which language you choose to learn, the right tutor can make all the difference. You’ll be sure to have a rewarding linguistic journey when you partner with a TakeLessons tutor!
