At Franklin Music Academy, we provide tailored guitar lessons that cater to various learning preferences, ensuring your child’s musical journey is both enjoyable and successful. Whether your child is drawn to acoustic, electric, or ukulele, we offer options for private or group lessons. The key to their success lies in understanding how they prefer to learn. Both group and private lessons have unique benefits to help young musicians thrive.
3 Reasons Private Guitar Lessons Might Be Best
Private lessons offer a highly personalized approach, ensuring each student’s unique needs and learning pace are met. Here’s why they might be the right choice:
- Fast-Track Learning One-on-one lessons with an instructor provide a customized learning experience. Students progress at their own pace, with lessons tailored to their musical preferences and abilities.
- Ideal for Specific Needs Children with learning disabilities such as ADHD or ADD often benefit from the focused environment of private lessons. Likewise, advanced learners who grasp concepts quickly avoid the frustration of waiting for others to catch up.
- Enhanced Focus and Fun Private lessons combine personalized attention with our instructors’ expertise, ensuring an engaging and productive learning experience.
3 Reasons Group Guitar Lessons Are a Fantastic Option
Group guitar lessons at Franklin Music Academy are an excellent way to build confidence and foster a sense of community among young musicians. Here’s why:
- Learn, Practice, and Perform Together Students in shared lessons collaborate with peers, practicing and performing in every class. This shared experience helps them feel more comfortable and confident when it comes to performing on stage.
- Personalized Attention in Small Groups With a maximum of four students per group, your child receives the individual attention they need to understand concepts while still benefiting from a collaborative learning environment.
- Affordable and Fun Group lessons are more cost-effective than private lessons, making them an accessible option for many families. Plus, the social aspect keeps students engaged and motivated.

Getting Started With Guitar Lessons
In the first year of guitar lessons, students focus on developing the technical skills necessary to navigate the fretboard. We introduce basic chord playing early on, encouraging students to sing along as they play. Singing helps keep rhythm, promotes active participation, and enhances their overall musicality. After just a few months, students will be able to sing and play several songs using basic open chords. You’ll be amazed at how quickly they progress!
How Will Guitar Lessons Progress Over Time?
As students advance, they learn to read music by playing in ensembles. Each student is assigned parts of an arrangement based on their skill level, fostering teamwork and collaboration. This approach mirrors the structure of a middle school orchestra but focuses entirely on guitars. Various genres, from classical to modern rock, are explored to broaden students’ musical horizons.
Additionally, students have opportunities to showcase their skills during our bi-annual recitals. Even those enrolled in private lessons can perform alongside others, creating a well-rounded and enriching experience.
