Discover Joshua Krell Guitar Lessons!

Looking for electric or acoustic guitar lessons in Spokane? Guitar can be very hard to learn on your own. Are you frustrated with the Youtube tutorials you’ve been watching? Do you feel like you’re going nowhere and you don’t sound good? You’ve come to the right place! One-on-one training will guide you through the obstacles. I will help you to transition between chords smoothly, improve your posture to get rid of the strain in your wrists and shoulders. Whether you play acoustic or electric, bass guitar or ukulele you will soon be playing your favorite songs with ease!

If nothing else Covid-19 showed the world that the online learning environment is here to stay. Because of this roughly a third of my students typically choose to take lessons online rather than in person. One of the advantages to online lessons is you do have the ability to easily record the lessons to go back over and rewatch as often as you like should you get stuck during the week. One of the benefits to in person sessions is we hold regular recording projects where students learn to produce their own songs. Either route you go however, I’m sure you will enjoy your learning experience and grow in your knowledge of the guitar.

Josh is a fabulous teacher and a wonderful human. He meets you where you’re at with your guitar playing, and tailors your learning plan specifically to your needs. He’s always willing to let you give input into what you want to learn to … More play, and his insight into music theory, songwriting, and technique are such valuable assets to any student, regardless of ability. Can’t recommend him enough.

Josh is great! I know absolutely nothing about music, so I can't validate the accuracy or efficacy of his methods, but he has lots of patience for my 7 yo daughter. Way more than I have in the audience. She is eager to play but not … More a prodigy and she likes to chit-chat ALOT (in kid language), Josh redirects like pro and is always kind and encouraging. My kid seems to be progressing well and has played 2 songs that I could almost (almost) tell what song it was supposed to be; she's been learning since February.

Josh has a refreshing teaching style and is easygoing and quick to adjust to the student’s needs/level. I enjoyed his emphasis on including recording and music production to help train the ear, which I haven’t experienced with anyone else … More I’ve taken lessons from. I stuck to acoustic but he’s also great for electric instruction as well. 10/10

Joshua has been teaching my 10 year old twins guitar for a little over 2 months. I found him on Lessons.com. They enjoy going each week to learn a new skill. Josh is very knowledgeable and is very patient with them. He is great about communicating … More with us and always gets back me in a timely manner. He has also been helpful at ensuring that they have proper materials and where I should go to get them what they need. I highly recommend him for lessons for anyone who is looking to play the guitar.

Joshua has been teaching my son for close to 3 months. I've literally waited to write this review, not to speak to soon. But I can't wait anymore to share how awesome Joshua is at teaching guitar! My son is six and a half and … More he is showing clear progress in his skills through learning from Joshua. Joshua tailored the curriculum for Isaac and have always taken time to talk to us what works well and what can be improved. It's been an absolute valuable 3 months in our guitar learning and we look forward to many more! Thank you Joshua, for your preparedness, presentation and more importantly patience to work with us!

STUDENT SHOWCASE!

Here at Joshua Krell Guitar Lessons I am a firm believer in giving students the opportunity to showcase what they’ve been working on. While some studios prefer to do live recitals with friends and family, we opt for a slightly different route. Students learn to produce and record music, write music and even shoot their own music videos using all of today’s latest technology. Students then have the opportunity to share their song on social media or with their friends!

Some students here are also regular live performers both locally and regionally both in bands, houses of worship and as singer songwriters.

It’s been so cool to see students of mine go on to write and produce full length albums and recordings that are available on Spotify, Apple Music, and everywhere else music is streamed. It’s always so rewarding seeing people I’ve poured into succeed! Check out the link to see more awesome students in action!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Cancellations

In the event that a student must reschedule, at least 24 hours notice is needed. There is no guarantee of a reschedule the week of the lesson. If there is not ample notice, the student is expected to pay for that lesson. If I have to cancel a lesson the time will be credited towards another lesson.

Waitlist

Due to limited space, you may be prompted to apply for a waitlist to be considered for the next available spot.

Location

I teach out of my home studio located within five minutes of the Spokane Valley Mall. When you arrive there will be plenty of street parking. I also offer in-home lessons with additional compensation for mileage and travel time, however, these spots are very limited. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me!

Are guitars provided by teacher?

Teacher does not provide guitars for the student. Guitars must be purchased or rented by the student as being enrolled in lessons require daily practice. I have recommendations for good beginner guitars on my gear page.

Will I need to bring my amp to lessons?

Amplification is provided for you in studio.

I am parent/guardian. Can I take lessons with my child?

I do offer parent and child duo packages. Please fill out the registration form and detail that in the box to receive a quote!
