Our guitar teachers teach rock, blues, metal, country and classical guitar lessons on Electric and Acoustic Guitars, as well as Bass 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 in each lesson you are challenged with a new technical or theory concept. Lessons 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 CD's or their iPod to their lesson to learn their favorite tunes.
Ukulele is a similar instrument to the guitar, but is easier to play for young students. They are smaller and the strings are easier to press down. Plus, they sound amazing and are very popular in music right now!
Our teachers can even help you with guitar repair: such as the set up of your guitar or replacing your strings!
Guitar set-up and maintenance available through our instructors!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHAT WILL I LEARN IN GUITAR LESSONS?
Our guitar teachers understand that every student is an individual, with personal musical needs and goals. We make it a priority to tailor HOW we teach and WHAT we teach to YOUR individual needs.
When you enroll here for guitar lessons, your teacher will ask you about your favorite type of music, and set goals to help accomplish whatever musical aspirations you have for yourself or your child. Together, you will develop a plan to achieve your goals! We love beginners, so even if you don't know where to begin, we can help!
WHAT STYLES OF MUSIC CAN I LEARN?
We teach all styles of playing guitar from rock, pop, jazz, country, worship, blues and classical. We combine the important fundamentals with the music YOU want to play. Students are exposed to the different styles of guitar playing so they can determine which they prefer (chord strumming, playing melodies, finger picking, reading music and TAB, and more) With all of the teachers at Fort Myers School of Music, you are sure to find the best match for YOU.
ARE YOUR GUITAR INSTRUCTORS QUALIFIED?
Our guitar instructors are highly qualified, all have teaching experience, and most importantly, they have a passion for teaching. Being a musician doesn't automatically make you a teacher--that's why we search for those who are best qualified for mentoring our music students!
We search the entire Southwest Florida area for the top teachers, who embody the high values at Fort Myers School of Music. Most importantly, our instructors strive to relate their teaching to each individual student's learning style. Many of our instructors have gone on performance tours of the USA and have years of professional performance and teaching experience. In addition to their teaching credentials, our teachers have warm personalities, are extremely friendly, and strive to get to know each student and their parent on a personal level. We search high and low for the BEST teachers, so you don't have to!
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO LEARN TO PLAY GUITAR?
There is no set answer of how long it takes to learn to play guitar. With regular practice, a basic level of playing can be accomplished in a few months. Most of our students take lessons on a long term basis because they want to be constantly improving and they find the lessons enjoyable.
I DON’T HAVE ANY MUSICAL BACKGROUND OR ABILITY. CAN I STILL HELP MY CHILD PRACTICE?
Yes. Even if you don't have a musical background you can ask the teacher for advice on how to help your child practice. By simply monitoring that they are doing exercises a certain number of times per day the student will progress. Parents will occasionally sit in on their child's music lesson to get an idea of the proper way a song should sound or how the student should be positioning their hands.
