Our Approach to Guitar & Ukulele Lessons at Tampa Music School
Tampa Music School guitar and ukulele teachers use a well-balanced style of instruction. We firmly believe that lesson time should be fun and engaging but also rich in substance and technical instruction.
Our instructors are well equipped to work with students of any age or performance level. Our instructors’ experience in different guitar musical styles is extensive. Guitar or ukulele performance goes far beyond merely strumming a few chords. Instructors at Tampa Music School focus on the quality of the whole musician. To accomplish this quality of performance, your ukulele or guitar teacher will first assist you in establishing a strong base on which to build further musicianship.
The guitar is perhaps the most popular easily transportable instrument in the United States. A decent guitar is easy to come by and generally more inexpensive than many other instruments. Chances are you have a friend who has shown you how to pick a few chords. Maybe you’ve even taken a shot at following an online guitar tutorial.
Unlike guitar, the ukulele is not quite as common, although it is simpler to manipulate and master. This folksy younger cousin of the guitar provides a fun, rhythmic accompaniment, especially for vocalists.
Tampa Music School instructors believe that no other type of guitar lessons or ukulele instruction can compete with the one-on-one quality collaboration you’ll get in guitar lessons with music professionals.
Guitar & Ukulele Lessons Should Be Fun!

Here at Tampa Music School, we can help you convert your musical fantasies into reality – while preserving that irresistible sense of joy you feel when playing along.

We Emphasize Healthy Technique
Regardless of your ultimate goals, our teachers will prioritize strong fundamentals including proper posture, hand positioning, chords, fretting, picking, and strumming. As students progress, these basics will become second nature – and serve as the foundation from which students can apply their skills across a variety of genres and styles.
