Class Experience

Purchase an 8-week session of private or small group lessons for your child on guitar, voice, ukulele, or piano. 

This is a great option for families who would like to commit to a semester of lessons.

This listing is for multiple teachers at Big Universe Music. Please message if you need help getting set up with the correct teacher for your instrument:

Lessons are 25 minutes for one-on-one private lessons. Students set the pace of private lessons by their commitment to practice. It is important that students are ready to practice at least one hour outside of lessons each week in order to progress.

Learning a musical instrument is fun, fulfilling, and challenging. Through music lessons, students explore a wide variety of musical styles and sounds, and learn how to express and interpret emotions.

It's easy to learn when you are having fun! That's why I teach the fundamentals of music through the songs that students love.
