MUSIC LESSONS

As a classically trained musician and multi-instrumentalist of over 35 years, I offer both virtual (worldwide) and in-person music lessons (in Southeastern Massachusetts). I’ve been giving music lessons for over 20 years and have helped hundreds of students to reach their goals.

Lessons are individually tailored to meet the needs of each student. Whether you’re an absolute beginner or you’ve got several years of playing under your belt, I have experience teaching students of all ages and skill levels. I’m currently offering the following:

  • Guitar (beginner, intermediate) – $30/half hour lesson, $50/hour lesson
  • Guitar (advanced) – message me to discuss goals
  • Bass (beginner, intermediate) – $30/half hour, $50/hour lesson
  • Piano/Keyboard (beginner, intermediate) – $30/half hour, $50/hour lesson
  • Drums/Percussion (beginner, intermediate) – $30/half hour, $50/hour lesson

In addition to being a lifelong musician, I also worked in the mental-health field for 15 years after earning a degree in psychology, working exclusively with young adults (ages 13-22) with special needs (everything from autism-spectrum disorders to mood and anxiety disorders, personality disorders, and more). I’m happy to offer music lessons to both children and adults with special needs. Everyone learns at their own pace and I’ll tailor your lessons to fit your needs and goals. I’m calm, kind, compassionate, and friendly – very easy to get along with. So, if you or your child has special needs and wants to learn how to play an instrument, send me an email and we can start making that dream a reality.

You’ll find that my rates are highly competitive with what is considered standard for music lessons. Some teachers with half of my experience charge twice as much. My goal is to offer high-quality and professional musical instruction at a price that is affordable for most people. So, are you ready to start learning? If so, send me an email at ellis@ellismichaels.com and we can start rocking together!
