About the Program
Guitar Lessons by Don is a one-teacher guitar studio in North Las Vegas run by Don, a freelance teacher and performer. He works mostly with beginner and intermediate players of all ages. Lessons happen in his home studio, which has moved to North Las Vegas, or at your house, with travel fees worked out with him.
Rates are posted: $30 for a half hour, $50 for an hour, and $25 per half hour for lessons of 1.5 hours or longer. A half hour is a sensible start for a younger child.
His approach is student led. Kids pick the songs and styles they care about, and the scales, chords and theory come in as the music calls for them. He leans toward songwriting and improvising, and will help a student record an original song once they are ready.
To sign up, fill out the registration form on the site as the parent, then wait for Don to activate the account. Read the lesson agreement on the resources page before the first lesson. Questions go to (702) 513-1796 or donzolv@gmail.com.

First Visit Guide
What most music schools expect. Confirm the details with Guitar Lessons by Don before you go.
What to bring
- The instrument if you already own one. Studios keep pianos and drum kits on site, so ask what's covered.
- Any music books from earlier lessons
- A notebook for practice notes
Before you go
- Don't buy an instrument before lesson one. Teachers meet your child first, then tell you whether to rent or buy and what size.
- Ask about the makeup and cancellation policy. It varies a lot between studios.
The first visit
The first lesson is a meet-and-play. The teacher checks interest, ear, and attention span, then suggests a lesson length. Thirty minutes is normal for young beginners.
For sensory-sensitive kids
One-on-one lessons are naturally calm. If volume worries you with drums or brass, ask about headphones or electronic versions.
