The age a child is ready to begin guitar lessons varies from child to child. Many students start as young as five. If you think your child may be ready to begin guitar lessons, you may schedule a 30-minute introductory lesson and one of our instructors will assess your child’s readiness to begin guitar lessons. Children who are too young to begin guitar lessons are encouraged to enroll in Music Authority’s Music Play for Beginners Program.

While not all young children are ready to begin guitar lessons, it’s never too late to start! Many of our students are adults who are eager to cultivate their passion for music.

At Music Authority, we are experts at accommodating aspiring guitar players at almost any age!  However, the younger the child, the more evaluation is needed to determine if they are ready for guitar lessons.  Some of our youngest guitar pupils started at age 5!  But, we understand that every student is different in terms of development.  We offer a complimentary screening for every child interested in guitar lessons, and if we determine they are not quite ready for lessons, we recommend they enroll in our Music Play for Beginners Class. This class is devoted to grooming young children and preparing them to excel in any type of musical endeavor.

Guitar lessons are always customized to the unique needs of a student. Each guitar lesson begins with our expert teachers evaluating the student to determine the best guitar lesson plan.

As the lessons progress, students will gradually refine their comprehension of the guitar, and musical principles in general.  Often, as the students obtain a better grasp of the guitar, they gravitate towards specific musical genres, like rock, jazz, pop, or country. In addition to the private lessons, we offer ample resources like guitar playing literature (available for purchase) and also encourage more advanced guitar students to collaborate with other guitarists and musicians to help hone their musical craft.

Formal performance is a vital piece to becoming a well-rounded musician, and at Music Authority we prepare students for 2 recitals per year, where they perform in front of mentors, family, and peers. Many of our students also compete in the American Guild of Music competition in April of each year.

Just like any other musical endeavor, there is always room for advancement, so how long it takes to reach your goal, varies.  Each student is different, but our professional guitar instructors are experts at tailoring a lesson plan that maximizes improvement and comprehension for each student.

In addition to Dearborn, we proudly offer in-person and online guitar lessons for students of all ages across S.E. Michigan, including Dearborn Heights, Detroit, Livonia, Westland, Canton, Northville, Redford, Wayne, Allen Park, or any other Wayne County community.
