Guitar Lessons
Welcome to Sweet Symphony School of Music – your gateway to Guitar mastery!
At Sweet Symphony School of Music, we’re excited to offer exceptional Guitar lessons from our Studio right here in Washington.
Whether you’re a complete beginner or a seasoned player looking to refine your skills, our dedicated instructors are here to help you unleash your musical potential on the Guitar.
My son is coming up to his first month of guitar lessons at Sweet Symphony and it’s been absolutely brilliant for him! He’s learned so much in such a short space of time. His confidence has grown and his teacher clearly knows his stuff. The payment process is straight forward and the online portal is useful. Not only that, but I get weekly class notes to my email inbox to remind us what was covered and what needs practising. There’s also a large public car park outside which is a big bonus.

Why Choose Sweet Symphony?
Flexible Scheduling
Life happens. We get it! Just let us know before your lesson if you can’t make it, and we’ll give you a Reschedule Credit to try and fit the lesson in elsewhere.
Distraction-Free Learning
From pets to iPads, at-home lessons can be full of distractions. Step into our Studio, where you can learn with purpose and focus. Our comfortable, distraction-free environment is designed to help you concentrate and get the most out of your lessons.
Family-Oriented
Our Studio is run by our family for your family. Schedule multiple kids at the same time or back-to-back. And while the kids are learning how to play an instrument, why not pick one up yourself?
Performance Opportunities
Build confidence and gain valuable life skills through year-round Performance Opportunities. Join the community at our regular Student Showcases in small local venues, or show off your skills at the annual Recital.

Hi! I’m Louise and I’m the founder of Sweet Symphony School of Music.
Sweet Symphony’s aim is to give people from all social, economic and academic backgrounds access to professional, affordable music tuition. We’ve been around since 2007 and that aim is still as relevant today as when I first started.
Guitar FAQ
Yes! All ages are welcome to attend our lessons. We have adult lessons running throughout the week, from absolutely beginners through to advanced players so don’t worry, we’ll find the perfect class for you.
For new Students, we do have a few guitars in the Studio which can be used if you’re maybe not sure which size would fit you best, or if you’d prefer to have a few lessons before buying an instrument. But generally we’d say it’s best for you to bring along your own instrument. Plus – you’ll need an instrument at home to practise on!
Yes! We can offer Acoustic, Bass, Classical and Electric guitar lessons, so whichever instrument you prefer there’ll be a lesson spot for you!
Although we take on children from age 4, generally we find 7 is a good starting age for guitar lessons. For younger children, we’re recommend starting with ukulele lessons first as they’re much easier for small hands to play!
Yes! We can teach both left- and right-handed guitar players, don’t worry!
Yes, your teacher can show you how to restring your guitar so you can manage it easily in the future. If you need new strings, we also have supplies within the Studio which you can buy.
While we encourage students to consider guitar exams when they reach an appropriate proficiency level, participation is entirely optional. At Sweet Symphony, we offer guitar exams through three different exam boards: Trinity, Rock & Pop, and LCME. This diverse range allows us to match each Student’s unique and preffered playing style to the best syllabus.
