Northville Guitar Lessons

​

Emily Maxwell is the owner of Northville Guitar Lessons, Michigan’s all guitar music academy. Northville Guitar Lessons has been open for 10 years and has helped hundreds of people achieve their dreams. Being able to help people discover their goals, meet their goals, and provide a safe and fun environment where they can learn guitar the right way, is what we’re all about. We love people and we love guitar! 

 

There are many things that make Northville Guitar Lessons the best place you can choose; Whether you’re wanting to take your guitar skills to the next level, or if you're picking up the instrument for the very first time...we've got you covered! We are literally the only school in ALL of Michigan who is actually trained and certified in how to teach guitar, aside from just having a music degree. This does make a massive difference in progress, as knowing how to teach different learning styles, different personality types, knowing how to help others overcome frustrations, etc isn't something that's taught in college when pursuing a music degree : )  How to “teach guitar” versus how to just “play guitar” is what makes us great! We also understand that every individual has a unique or different goal when it comes to learning guitar. We make sure we have an actual plan in place for every person, and we closely track their progress to ensure that we are helping to meet their goals, and to make sure that they are always moving forward. We will never "wing" your lessons, we always have a plan for you!

​

For some, learning guitar is for a fun hobby, for others it's to play at open mic nights or to jam with friends, and even others it's to play professionally. No matter what reason you're wanting to learn, we are passionate about helping you achieve your dream! We truly care about every person that walks through our doors; we are more than music, we are a family that helps inspire, encourage, and uplift one another! We even offer a FREE trial lesson for you to come and check us out! *Ages 8 and up*

 

Throughout each year, Emily undergoes constant training with a specialized mentor in guitar businesses, investing literally thousands of hours of her own time learning how to provide the best value possible to her clients, learning how to teach guitar in the quickest and most efficient way possible (because who wants to learn an instrument if it’s going to take forever?), and learning how to help others overcome their frustrations/obstacles so they can enjoy the journey they’re on. 

 

*In her free time, Emily enjoys spending time with her husband James, stepson Matthew, and her 2 rescue dogs Lacy and Laila. She also enjoys reading the Bible, worshipping Jesus, and doing outreach with friends to help those in her surrounding cities.
