Music Lessons

:

I am a music teacher, teaching private lessons on double bass, cello, piano and guitar. I am certainly seeing a drop in numbers with younger students due to the economy, but I have had a boom of adult students, particularly on guitar.

People are going out less and can only watch so much TV. Adults are coming to me saying "I've had this old guitar for years" or "I always wanted to learn to play."

Even if they need to save to buy one, most people are able to afford a cheap instrument.
