I first started learning guitar at an early age. With the crazed boom of the video game Guitar Hero coming out I was determined to learn to play a real guitar. I studied guitar privately with instructors over the course of several years. Gaining a wide range of techniques, and approaches to the instrument. So pick up your guitar and let's start learning!

Very knowledgeable. Austin has incredible patience and a personalized teaching style that will ensure each lesson is tailored to my daughter's pace and learning preferences.

I recognize his passion for music and teaching when listening in on their lesson. I believe we found a talented and valuable instructor.

Thank you Austin.
Alexandra
I feel really lucky to have ended up taking my first piano lessons with Austin. As an adult, learning has brought a new challenge and sense of humility that has been very rewarding because of Austin’s support and teaching style. He breaks things down in layman’s terms, is super knowledgable, but also very personable. He also has the technology in place to make the lesson barely feel remote. He wants his students to get the most out of their lessons and is great at catering to each student’s needs, whether it be understanding or inspiration. I highly recommend anyone hesitant to take the leap give it a try with Austin.

Both of my children received guitar lessons virtually from Mr. Austin, and they both thoroughly enjoyed it!

It was a great first lesson with Jeff. He gave a clear and interesting introduction to what I was to learn. Jeff was patient and adjusted quickly to my learning needs. Can’t wait for our next class!

Had lesson one yesterday. He taught the basics in “tone” right off the bat. Great start! Look forward to more lessons to come.

Jeff is a seasoned musician and an excellent teacher! I highly recommend Jeff: he understood my music capabilities and learning style and adapted the lessons accordingly. I am new to music playing and Jeff understood.
This enabled me to learn more quickly.

Lessons are most enjoyable. Jeff's teaching technique is unique; he makes the most of the time to teach as much as possible without overwhelming.

Jeff is very pleasant and friendly. He has a great ear so can pickup what hole is being played and whether it's being played correctly. This was over zoom!

Thank you Jeff!

I teach the basics of learning acoustic guitar technique including: Selecting an appropriate guitar for the student, correct holding of the guitar, finger and hand placement, guitar notes and scales, guitar tablature, reading and playing guitar chords, strumming and picking, playing guitar songs from most genres and music theory. I also teach electric bass guitar and ukulele, beginner through intermediate. I teach guitar in most genres of music (except hip-hop and rap). I have been playing acoustic guitar since I was 10 years old, and have a great deal of experience in playing most genres and techniques, I am used to accompanying groups of people in different settings on the guitar. I learned to play ukulele as one of my first instruments. I learned to play electric bass guitar in stage band and in a rock group in high school. I love the guitar and it is one of my favorite instruments because of its versatility.

Guitar is my main squeeze. I love to help people enjoy the instrument as much as I do. learn to shred a rock solo, fingerpick a folk song, or transcribe miles davis. learn to play what you hear on records without resorting to dodgy you tube instructional videos or tabs. learn to understand the fretboard and use that understanding intuitively and musically. If you are already an accomplished musician, enhance your ability to employ techniques like chord weaving on the guitar, craft better solos, write more sophisticated chord progressions, etc.

Indigo has really helped me get to know and understand the instrument more than ever before. Her focus is building a fluency on the guitar, instead of just memorizing a bulky vocabulary. In our classes she’s demystified music theory concepts that I was too intimidated to approach on my own, and let me hone in on technique with lots of personalized guidance and flexibility. No annoying pretension (though she would definitely be justified in it), just a genuine and supportive love for playing music. Working with Indigo is the most positive experience I’ve had with musical instruction so far!
Michael P.
I’ve looked at several different teaching methods for guitar and Indigo’s is by far the clearest and easiest to follow! Her approach is unique and effective. She is methodical, but flexible, encouraging me to incorporate the things I am practicing with the songs I am selecting helping me to learn more quickly. The videos she creates keep me “on track” between lessons, demonstrating the exercises taught. She has a good sense of humor and is really patient. Most of all I like her consistent desire to find ways to be most helpful as I fumble my way to guitar excellence! If you have researched guitar teachers but haven’t found a good fit, I highly recommend reaching out to Indigo!

Indigo is a wonderful guitar teacher! Her knowledge is extensive and she does a good job of explaining things. She is patient while also providing accountability. This has helped me tremendously. I highly recommend!

Learn How to Play Guitar from Expert Musicians

There are so many instruments available for students of all ages to learn today. However, some instruments have maintained a high level of popularity over the years, attracting fans of all different kinds of music and performance styles. One of these instruments is the guitar.

The guitar’s origins go back as far as 16th century Europe, in which a similar 4-stringed instrument called the lute was widely played by people of all social classes. Though the lute was much smaller than the modern guitar and didn’t have pronounced curves in the midsection, it directly influenced the invention of the guitarra latina, a Spanish instrument also with 4 strings but with the signature side body curves that today’s guitar players are used to.

This generation of the guitar underwent many subtle changes over the centuries, gradually turning it into what we know as the classical guitar today. Classical guitar is still played throughout the world, especially in Spain, and looks very similar to an acoustic guitar but is characterized by its nylon strings. The steel-stringed acoustic guitar was all the rage in American pop and folk music in the early 20th century until the electric guitar was invented in the 1930s, creating a revolution in the way guitar music could be heard and played.

Expand Your Mind and Skillset with Online Guitar Lessons

As you can see, the guitar has a rich and colorful history that is directly tied to several ancient instruments. However, aside from the historical significance of the instrument, the guitar maintains an extremely high level of cultural significance today. Nearly every popular genre of music utilizes guitar playing in some way, especially rock, RnB, and pop.

If you’ve been thinking about taking up an instrument in order to acquire a new skill and make music of your own, it can be difficult to decide which instrument to choose. Even among some of the most popular music lessons to take like voice, guitar, ukulele, piano, and drums, all of the possibilities of these instruments offer different unique benefits and additions to your daily life.

Why Learn How to Play Guitar?

One of the primary reasons that new music students choose to learn how to play guitar is because it is very portable and easy to carry around. Though the guitar isn’t as small and light as the ukulele, it is still light enough for the average person to carry it in its case from place to place without any trouble. Plus, most guitar cases come with zipper pockets for sheet music, capos, tuners, and other gear so you can keep all of your necessary items in one convenient place.

Another significant reason to take up guitar is the fact that this instrument is included in a vast majority of popular music, both present and past. This means that by learning how to play guitar, you’ll have access to an expansive repertoire of legendary songs that you can play in a completely authentic way. Also, since guitar is such a natural addition to so many songs and styles, you’ll be able to easily combine your skills with friends in order to form a band or even just jam once in a while. The guitar is incredibly versatile and has a lot to offer any new player no matter their age, preferred style, or prior training.

Finally, learning how to play guitar will provide you with a completely new skill that you’ll be able to take into all areas of your life. For many, music provides a much-needed escape from their busy lives including work, school, and family; however, the calming effects of listening to music can’t compare to the feeling of playing music yourself.

Learning to play an instrument can provide you with more than just a relaxing activity to give you a break from your other responsibilities. It can also improve several facilities of your mental function including your memory and hand-eye coordination, no matter what age you are. Learning to play music can improve your life in so many ways, and the versatility and wide range of possibilities that the guitar provides is a great place to start.

The Benefits of Online Guitar Lessons

While learning how to play guitar, some will choose to learn on their own through online resources or music books. While this approach can help you to jumpstart your guitar knowledge and abilities, it will only be able to take you so far. Once you’ve learned some basic chords, fingerings, and popular tunes, you may find it difficult to continue to progress with your skill without a teacher.

Taking online guitar lessons is beneficial for new guitarists in many ways. It gives you access to a professional who can give you crucial information about hand and body positionings in order to prevent injury, which happens to musicians more often than you might think. Working with a teacher can also help you to build up your practice more quickly than you would on your own because your teacher can provide you with practice materials that are specific to your level and goals, gradually updating these materials as needed.

If you’re not a trained music educator, you won’t be able to provide yourself with the right levels of music to learn as your skills advance; therefore, you may accidentally keep working on music for too long that’s too easy for you or take on a song that is way beyond your skill level, causing you to become frustrated and potentially give up the instrument altogether. Your online guitar teacher will be able to expertly lead you through your practice week by week and make sure that you’re always playing songs that challenge you enough to improve your playing skills but not so much that you become discouraged.

Additionally, having a guitar teacher means you’ll have someone to hold you accountable to practice and continually improve your skills. This can be difficult for students learning how to play guitar to maintain on their own, especially for adults who have busy lives and may end up prioritizing other things over their guitar practice without a teacher to encourage them.

How to Find Online Guitar Lessons

Finding an amazing guitar teacher online is easy at TakeLessons. Our site features a wide variety of teachers with different backgrounds and training of their own that are open to teaching several age ranges and styles. Plus, you can find a teacher that is available in your ideal price and schedule range with just a few clicks of your mouse by using our customizable search function.

With so many well-qualified teachers available, many of our potential students become overwhelmed by the idea of making a choice. However, the first step to narrowing down your search is deciding on a few key factors. How much am I willing to spend per week to learn how to play guitar? Where can I realistically fit online guitar lessons into my schedule? The answers to these questions as well as your age, skill level, and whether you prefer lessons in English or Spanish will instantly narrow your search so that you’ll be able to more easily pick the perfect candidate.

Choosing Your Online Teacher

If you don’t have a musical background and don’t know much about high-level musical training, you may not feel comfortable choosing an online teacher based upon where they went to school or what musical accolades they’ve received. Luckily, there are several other distinct qualities that you can use to judge whether or not you feel comfortable taking lessons with an online teacher.

The first metric to take a look at is how long your teacher has been teaching. On nearly every teacher’s personalized profile on TakeLessons, you’ll see the year that they started teaching advertised. Some of our teachers have only been in the business for a few years, but some have been teaching for over 10 years at this point. Teachers with more years under their belt aren’t necessarily superior to newer teachers, but some potential students really value having an instructor with more experience.

Next, we recommend checking the reviews left by previous and current students on each teacher’s profile. This is where you can get the clearest sense of how your prospective teacher organizes their lessons from week to week, what their personality is like, and how effective their students found them to be. It will be difficult to find a teacher on our site without glowing reviews, but the reviews will allow you to make detailed decisions based on personality type and lesson style.

If you’ve looked over a teacher’s profile thoroughly and still have questions, you can always send your potential teacher a private message before booking any lesson times. This will allow you to gain more information about the teacher’s teaching methods, personality, and priorities when it comes to guitar lessons, providing you with some much-needed insight on whether or not the teacher is right for you and your goals.

Average Cost of Online Guitar Lessons

The average cost of 60-minute guitar lessons is $73. While the exact cost will vary depending on the teacher, type of lesson, and location, you should expect to spend between $28 and $300 per hour.
