Welcome! Sign ups are by appointment; please send me a direct message with your availability and day/time preferences to schedule your personal lesson time. In Private Guitar Lessons, I will teach you everything you need to know to play your instrument. Whether you are a complete beginner or someone who has been playing for a while, I will meet you where you are and give you the resources you need to be successful on your guitar. No previous musical training is required, and you will walk away from your first lesson knowing how to play a song. Content will be tailored to the individual student’s needs and interests. Topics include basic open chords, barre chords, chord progressions, music theory, tablature, Western music notation, tuning, and composition.
Other Details
Learning Needs
I have a masters degree in teaching and 15 years of classroom experience with all kinds of learners. Lessons are always customized to meet the individual’s needs.
Pre-Requisites
No experience necessary!
Supply List
Students will need their own 6-string or (12-string) guitar with all strings functioning. Can be a classical, acoustic, or electric model. Younger students should be playing on an instrument that is scaled down (not full/adult sized) so that the size is manageable. Many inexpensive starter instruments can be found online; message me if you would like assistance in selecting one, and I am happy to help you find the right guitar for your learner.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Sources
Teacher-created curricular materials will be used.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Florida Teaching Certificate in Music/Theater/Arts
Hello! My name is Tara and I am a music teacher and mom in Florida, USA. I have been a school music teacher and private lesson instructor for 15 years, and I love what I do! I currently teach early childhood music at a K-8 school, as well as individual lessons in voice, guitar, piano, and ukulele. I also conduct a children's choir in my home community.
I have a Master of Music Education and Bachelor of Music Education, both from Florida State University. I have taught Pre-K through 12th grade music full time in Florida and Massachusetts schools, and hold teaching certificates in both states. I am proud that my educational background is focused on pedagogy, not just performance.
I believe that music is for every child, and every child is musical. There is a common misconception that musical ability is something people either have or "don't." Music can be taught and learned, just like any skill. Every child has music to share, and I want to help them nurture it. Music lessons are never "one size fits all" -- I am always creating instructional materials that suit the needs and interests of a particular student.
I would love to get to know your child and make music together. If there is a music class you would like to see offered, or if you would like to set up a class time that is not currently scheduled, please send me a message!Reviews
