28 Aug Back to School music lessons
Musical interests can stem from having seen a concert, hearing music regularly in the house, or a family member showing passion in their hobby.
If you’re looking to add music to your child’s life, the guitar could be a great idea. Some children thrive on 1:1 tuition especially when they’re able to focus without the distractions of the classroom.
The guitar is a popular choice due to the instrument being initially cost effective, relatively quiet and relatable.
Guitar tuition at your school
Are you looking to transition from a school environment to private 1:1 tutoring? Have you’ve discovered that they’re interested and practice often enough to make you wonder about private 1:1 tuition?
Overall, with 1:1 the progress is quicker and you’re able to see what’s going on in the lesson. Lessons are 30, 45 or 60 minutes in length and you can upgrade the amount of time when you feel the time is right.
There’s greater flexibility too with how you learn. Online and face to face are available meaning that when situations arise, you can opt in to have an online lesson instead.
Back to school, musical supplies
When you’re heading back to school at the start of term, there are a some guitar accessories that you can buy to impress your tutor.
• Metronome
• Music Stands (orchestral)
• Foot stool (classical)
• Plectrums
• New guitar strings
Cost of guitar lessons
The cost can have an impact on your decision too and the difference between public schools, private 1:1 tuition and lessons from your private school can be noticable.
Music lessons are a luxury for most, but everybody needs to earn a living and as long as you’re seeing the result & progress, you’ll realise the difference quite quickly.
Guitar lessons with MK Guitar Tuition, costs start from £22.50 / £90 pcm for 30 minute lessons and increase accordingly. You can also learn via MKGTV as a subscription package. Here you can request what you’d like to know more about too. It’s a flat fee of £20 pcm.
Benefit of Music lessons
Not every child is an academic. Exploring creativity can be soothing whilst teaching focus and discipline. Musical instruments teach focus, cognitive functions, dexterity, listening and reading skills.
DofE – music lessons
If your child is 14-24 they can complete their skills section for the Duke of Edinburgh Awards by learning the guitar. Learning the guitar will take time and is a convenient way to complete their gold award too.
