4worldlovers: For generations, the most common gateways for people to learn music has either been through school or private music lessons. But the thing is, music is a free language that, no matter what anybody says, is not bound by any one set of standards. Music teachers as a whole need to take a hard look at the way music is taught because...

There are glaring social inequities in music education. Music programs are more likely to lack resources in poverty-stricken neighborhoods. Children from families that make around $40K are half as likely to learn a musical instrument than those that come from a household that makes around $60K. Plus, there's a profound lack of diversity among music teacher candidates, which fittingly, seems to be the direct result of all the inequities minorities and people who come from low-income backgrounds face every step of the way when it comes to learning music.

There are more online resources than ever for learning an instrument, and that's great for anyone without access to formal music education. But usually, these resources at best gloss over core music principles in favor of technique. In essence, the Internet is creating people who play instruments but aren't really musicians.

The thing is, there's no such thing as a truly "self-taught" player. People crave instruction, yet more and more, they're not getting what they want from traditional routes. Here's a key stat to consider: over 20% of children say they play an instrument but have never taken lessons. At what point do we pivot?

This step-by-step guide starts from zero, so beginners can learn how to sing and play at the same time as quickly as possible. These are the basic instructions that should come with every new guitar, and it's what should be taught in every student's first guitar lesson as well.

My son loves taking guitar at TCMS! His instructor has him working on his favorite popular songs--that's really piqued his interest. He even performed at his school's "music share"--that's something I never expected from him. Scheduling is simple and when we ran into a conflict mid-quarter, TCMS moved his lesson time to something that worked for us. We highly recommend TCMS!!

What a great school! My kids were given a gift certificate for music lessons at this school and it is awesome! The instructors are kind and patient, they teach everything from guitars and drums to studio engineering, and they seem to be supremely knowledgeable from top to bottom. The space is about perfect! In the waiting room alone they have video games and toys to keep the kids happy, a sweet baby grand piano, and even art on the walls for us bigger kids. We are going to purchase the rest of the lessons to complete the session as it is a great value. Twin Cities Music School is truly a gem, my kids had a blast!

Eric is a fantastic teacher!!! He clearly enjoys kids, is a great communicator, and is very patient and flexible. My 8 year old son, who is on the autism spectrum, is really enjoying his beginner guitar lessons with Eric, who is terrific with him. I can't recommend him enough!

Eric is a great teacher. My daughter and I both take lessons from him. He has a passion for music that is infectious and inspiring. He has a distinct teaching style that is fun and challenging. I have taken lessons at several different places but never saw the increase in skill and enjoy-ability that I've gotten in the past year of lessons with Eric. Highly recommend to beginners or those looking to take their skills to the next level.

Ive been working with Eric for over a year now and I can't recommend him enough. Whether you are looking to play guitar recreationally or professionally Eric is the person you want to help hone your skills. As someone who has tried to teach myself and failed I can say that after working with Eric not only do I understand music itself astronomically better but I also am able to produce music on a creative level that would have taken years to achieve without Eric. Lastly, to anyone who is on edge of whether they need a teacher or not, the answer is YES, absolutely and you won't find anyone better than Eric.

I have been taking lessons with Eric for almost three years and I would highly recommend him to anyone thinking about taking any kind of music lessons. I initially started with blues guitar lessons because I wanted to be able to play my favorite songs or maybe impress girls. Over the years Eric got me interested in so much more.

I learned music theory, jazz standards, improvisation, fingerstyle techniques, how to play and sing at the same time, and how to write and record my own songs. He inspired me to take on piano as a second instrument.

I have been taking Guitar and Ukulele lessons from Eric for over a year and a half and couldn't be happier! I am an adult student with a very busy and at times hectic life. I started taking guitar lessons with Eric as a way to relax and learn music which I love. I received a set of lessons as a birthday gift, I have truly enjoyed the lessons and Eric's teaching style ever since.
