Private Lessons

What are private lessons like at Magnolia?

Whether your child is picking up an instrument for the first time or building on experience, Magnolia’s private lessons offer a warm, creative space to grow as a musician.

Our teachers meet each student where they are, adapting to their learning style and interests to keep them engaged and growing.

Private lessons are offered in both 1:1 and shared formats, with per-student tuition typically ranging from $45 to $95 depending on lesson length and whether the lesson is shared. More pricing info below.

Lesson registration is now open!
