The Guitar Gallery instructors are available to help students have fun with the guitar. You set your own curriculum so that you look forward to your lessons and practicing at home! You can learn technical theory if you chose, but most start the first or second lesson learning the first chord of their favorite song.
The instructors handle their own scheduling and booking. This helps prevent possible miscommunication by getting the Guitar Gallery staff involved with messages, etc. Call the instructor directly at the numbers provided below about available dates and time slots.
Rates vary, but are usually between $15 to $20 per half hour for a private lesson. After the first lesson or two, the lessons are paid by the month in advance to secure the time slot. Make-up lessons are negotiated on a case by case basis. Ask your instructor at the first lesson if you need details about makeup lessons.
The instructors are self employed and do not work for the Guitar Gallery. They rent the lesson rooms from the Guitar Gallery (on premises instructors).
If you have a comment, compliment or complaint about one of the Guitar Gallery instructors, do not hesitate to contact the owners, Scott Smith or Dan Vogt at 205-758-2220.
