A Relaxed and Supportive Learning Space

Lessons at my teaching studio on Clifton Blvd, Lakewood
I specialize in working with beginners, children and seniors, teaching them the rudimentaries of guitar playing before moving on to more advanced techniques, theory and styles.

Lesson rates start from just $18 per half-hour. See full details below.
Eric Hankinson
I am available for private guitar and bass lessons from 10am - 9pm daily at my teaching studio on Clifton Boulevard in Lakewood, Ohio.

​Whatever your inspiration - whether you are a serious student seeking to deepen your playing and theory skills or someone who just wants to be able to jam with your friends - I can customize lessons to suit each student's individual abilities and goals. ​

Experience that Shows

I've had tremendous success at helping students reach their musical goals and become well rounded musicians. I have an associates degree in liberal arts with a concentration on music and studied privately with several of the best teachers in Buffalo, NY.

With more than 20 young guitar students attending my classes, I specialize in teaching beginners and children and have vast experience with both. 

Helping You to Find Your Voice

Learn scales, modes, chords, arpeggios, chord/melody style, improvisation, ear training, music theory, reading and a variety of techniques and songs in several styles. 
​

Techniques taught include: picking, finger picking, pick and finger technique, chord/melody playing, bending, sliding, hammer-ons and pull-offs, muting and sweep picking.​  I am equally at home teaching bass as teaching guitar, so get in touch to let me know your interest. 

Going the Extra Mile

For the most dedicated students, I also make myself available (to serious students) for free music theory lessons outside of their normal lesson time. I am also happy to discuss your equipment needs, from a beginner setup to advanced rigs.

Covid-19 Response
I take the following Covid-19 precautions at my studio: seats are 10 feet apart.  I teach wearing a mask and encourage students to do the same, disinfect chairs/music stand between lessons, which are scheduled at least 30 minutes apart and I leave a window open during the lesson.
