Each year, PrivateLessons.com, a leading network connecting the public with independent music teachers, receives countless requests from people who wish to give music lessons as a gift to a loved one, generally from one adult to another.

When planning such a gift, consider the following:

* Purchase music lessons as a short course, five to ten lessons. This will help your loved one enjoy learning favorite pieces or songs, eliminating frustration of trying to accomplish the feat in one lesson.

* Depending on geographic region, lessons may range from $30 to $60 per hour.

* Independent music teachers on PrivateLessons.com network offer a variety of options, including half-hour lessons as well as workshops that may range from $100 to $250.

“I have had hundreds of adult students over the years and noticed that only those who make an upfront commitment to a minimum period of study gather enough momentum to continue. Giving music lessons as a gift is one way to help the busy, overwhelmed adult learner in YOUR life a chance at achieving their dream of being able to play an instrument well,” commented Alex Adrian, a Newburyport, Massachusetts based PrivateLessons.com member.
