Learning Guitar Doesn’t Have to Be Hard – Get Help Today!
Challenges Faced by Guitar Students
1. Slow Progression
For many students, learning the guitar can feel like a slow journey. Beginners, in particular, might struggle with basic chords, finger placement, and rhythm, which can lead to frustration. Even as they advance, more complex techniques, such as fingerpicking or soloing, may require significant practice and patience. This slow progression can sometimes lead to self-doubt, especially when students compare themselves to others.
2. Balancing School and Music
As students progress through various education levels, such as Primary School, Secondary School, and Junior College (JC) or the Integrated Program (IP), balancing academic demands with extracurricular activities, including music lessons, becomes increasingly difficult. Secondary school and JC students often face heightened academic pressure due to upcoming exams and assessments. This can leave them with less time and energy to dedicate to their guitar practice.
3. Stress of Exams
Secondary school students preparing for both music exams, such as ABRSM or Trinity exams, and academic exams such as O-Levels, often feel torn between their studies and music practice. The stress of exams can be overwhelming, and students may feel they need to neglect one area in favor of another. This can lead to anxiety and a decline in motivation for both their academic work and their musical progress

- Build a repertoire of songs to showcase your progress and express your musical identity
What’s unique about a 1-to-1 Guitar Tuition class versus a Guitar Tuition Centre?
1. Personalized Learning
1-to-1 guitar tuition is designed specifically for each student’s needs, learning pace, and goals. Just like private academic tutoring in subjects like Math or English, individual lessons allow the tutor to focus on what the student needs most, whether it’s mastering basic chords or improving advanced techniques. The flexibility of one-on-one instruction means that lessons can be adapted to suit the student’s musical preferences, ensuring they remain engaged and motivated.
2. Flexible Learning Pace to Match Exam Timelines
1-to-1 guitar tuition allows students to progress at a pace that suits their exam timelines and personal schedule. If a student is preparing for their O-Level music exam or any other school exam, they can spend more time on specific pieces or topics that will be assessed in the exam. Unlike tuition centres, where lessons are often set to a fixed pace to accommodate all students, 1-to-1 lessons allow for a more flexible schedule, making sure that the student is adequately prepared ahead of time.
3. Faster Progress
1-to-1 guitar tuition enables students to progress at their own pace. If a student grasps a concept quickly, they can move on to more challenging material, whereas a group class at a tuition centre may require the student to wait for others to catch up. This pace flexibility mirrors how private academic tutoring allows students to accelerate or slow down based on their needs, leading to faster mastery of the material. It’s particularly beneficial for those who want to advance quickly or need more time to build a strong music foundation.

Guitar Tuition Pricing FAQs
What is the difference between the type of Guitar tutors available?
To simplify things, we group our tutors into three main tutor categories:
– Part-Time Guitar Tutors – refers to private tutors who doing it part-time. Most of the tutors here are still schooling: A-level graduates, Diploma students/graduates, or Undergraduates. To a lesser extent, there are also University graduates and working professionals offering tuition part-time and they fall under this category. Part-time tutors are the cheapest option for home tuition in Singapore.
– Full-Time Guitar Tutors – refers to full-time private tutors who teach as a profession. Full-time tutors may/may not be university graduates but often have significantly more teaching experiences than part-time tutors as they tutor lots of students 1-to-1 as well as take up jobs in tuition centres teaching groups of students in classes. The actual qualifications and experience of a full-time tutor can vastly differ between individuals, hence so does the tuition rate they command.
– Guitar School Teachers – refers to ex/current school teachers either from MOE or from private and international schools. Tutors under this category tend to be the most experienced and qualified in private tutoring and thus command the highest tuition rates. Be prepared to pay a premium in order to engage these teachers successfully.
Do I have to pay any agent fees?
Our services are free-of-charge for parents and students. You are only required to pay for Guitar lessons conducted. A portion of the total lesson fees usually in the first four weeks of lessons will be allocated to SmileTutor as the agency commission. This is deducted directly from the tutor’s fees, so you do not pay anything extra.
However, there is a 9% GST imposed on the agency commission. For example, if you engage a Guitar home tutor for $50 per class for once a week, the agency commission will be $100. Hence, the GST imposed is $9. This is only a one-off payment only and from 3rd lesson onward there is no GST since you pay the tutor directly. The tutor’s fees are not subjected to GST.
To facilitate the process for us to collect the agency fees, you are required to cooperate with us by transferring the allocated agency commission (usually 50% of the 1st month fees) + GST directly to SmileTutor. Thereafter, you will pay the remaining lessons to the tutor directly. Our Tuition Coordinators will inform you of the full payment details and instructions upon lesson confirmation.
Are there any contracts?
There are no contracts and obligations until you agree to engage our private Guitar tutors. When any assignment is confirmed, there are guidelines to follow to ensure that both the student and tutor can have a smooth and rewarding experience.
How can I trust the Guitar tutors recommended by SmileTutor?
In 2019, we introduced Quality Score™ which is our proprietary system that grades over 50,000 tutors based on multiple factors such as profile completeness, recent job acceptance, track records, parent reviews, and more. With this system, we are able to ensure that parents & students are constantly matched with the cream of the crop Guitar tutors in Singapore. Since we have introduced this system, the quality of our private Guitar tutors have improved and our numbers of compliments had increased tremendously.
SmileTutor treats the credibility of our tutor profiles very seriously. All suspicious tutor applications or profiles with missing information are immediately investigated and blacklisted. For tutees who wish to personally verify their tutor’s qualifications and identity, you may request that the tutor bring their relevant certificates on the 1st lesson. (We do not to send online documents due to privacy laws). For current school teachers, it is our SOP to remind tutors to bring teacher’s pass on their first lesson as a form of verification to give tutee a peace of mind.

Read lessFrequently Asked Questions about Guitar Tuition in Singapore
How do guitar lessons complement my child’s other academic subjects?
Guitar lessons can enhance cognitive skills such as focus, memory, and problem-solving, which are all crucial in Singapore’s rigorous education system. Learning an instrument has been shown to improve concentration, which can help students perform better in their school subjects. Music also fosters discipline and perseverance—valuable traits that can support academic success in areas like Mathematics and languages such as English and Chinese.
Can my child take guitar lessons alongside other music lessons like piano or voice?
Yes! Many students in Singapore pursue multiple music lessons, whether it’s Piano, Voice, or Guitar. These complementary skills can work together to improve overall musicality. Our tutors at SmileTutor can create a balanced curriculum, helping your child excel in both their guitar lessons and other music-related subjects, allowing them to become a well-rounded musician.
Is it possible for my child to take guitar lessons while preparing for other school exams like the PSLE or O-Level?
Yes, we understand that students in Singapore often juggle multiple commitments, such as school exams like PSLE or O-Level. SmileTutor’s flexible guitar lesson schedules can accommodate your child’s exam preparation. Our tutors ensure that guitar lessons are fun and engaging while respecting your child’s academic needs, allowing them to balance both their studies and their passion for music.
Can guitar tuition help my child develop a lifelong passion for music?
Yes! At SmileTutor, we believe that music is not just a skill but a lifelong passion. By providing a nurturing and supportive environment, we help students connect with the joy of playing the guitar. Whether your child pursues music as a hobby or a potential career, our tutors aim to instill a love for music that lasts beyond their lessons and academic years.
How do I request for a Guitar tutor?
Our slogan is “Efficient, effective, and easy” – our goal is to make your process of finding the perfect home tutor for your child as simple and painless as possible.
There are many avenues for you to request for a Guitar tutor with us and it takes less than 2 minutes to do so. The avenues as listed below:
– Phone Call: +65 6266 4475 (Mon to Sun 9am-8pm)

– WhatsApp: +65 94504390 (click for shortcut)
You can also send us a quick email through our contact form at the bottom of the page. Once we have received your enquiry, our coordinators will drop you a call within 1-12 hours.
Simply take 2 minutes to send us your request now and you can sit back and relax while we source for the perfect tutor for you.
How are the tutors assigned to me?
After making a request via our online platforms (Website, Instagram, Facebook or WhatsApp) or via the phone hotline (+65 6266 4475), our Tuition Coordinators will determine the best available tutor based on your stated preferences and will send you recommendations via SMS.
You can then ask any questions, request to speak with the tutor via conference call, ask for another recommendation or simply confirm the tutor. If you are uncomfortable with any details regarding the newly
assigned tutor, you can always request for a different tutor. Our Coordinators will ensure that both parties agree on the lesson details and pricing before confirming the lessons.
Once you have confirmed a suitable tutor, we’ll send you the lesson details via a confirmation email and you can start preparing for your first lesson!
Can I request for a specific tutor?
Sure, if you have any tutors in mind, feel free to give us a call at +65 6266 4475 and let us know the information of the Maths tutor you are looking for. As we have the most extensive database in Singapore, we may be able to find the tutor you are looking for.
Alternatively, you may view some of our latest available tutors at our ‘View Tutors’ page. From this page you can do some DIY sourcing and indicate your interest directly there. However, do note that the availability of the tutor may not be guaranteed. Our Coordinators will be swift to advice you on the availabilities of the requested tutor and recommend any similar tutors that may be available if needed.
Where are the Guitar tuition lessons conducted?
The Guitar tutoring lessons will be conducted at a pre-determined location according to your preference (usually at your home). If it is not convenient to have tuition conducted at your home, you may request for the tuition to be conducted somewhere else, such as the tutors home or at a convenient public location such as libraries, cafeterias, hostels, etc.
The location of the tuition lessons should be determined before the confirmation of lessons. Any change in address after lessons have started is subject to both parties approval
How are lessons conducted?
One of the main benefits of private tutoring is that we do not adopt a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach. Every Guitar tutor has their unique methodology, personality, and teaching style. During the prospecting phase, our coordinators do our due diligence to find out your child’s needs and weakest points in the Guitar subject in order to match the most suitable tutor.
Usually, the first lesson is a ‘getting to know’ phase, where tutors will gauge your child’s interest in the subject, current level of proficiency, and spot areas of weakness. From the second lesson onwards, tutors will generally be more prepared to conduct the lessons according to the student’s learning or syllabus.
If you are a more hands-on parent, you can also communicate with the tutor and provide suggestions on which area you’d like the tutor to focus more on (i.e. composition writing). As there are no fixed lesson plans or arrangements, both the clients and tutors are free to discuss and conduct their lessons in any way that benefits the student’s learning.
Can I postpone lessons dates & timings?
Yes, of course. However, all postponements of lessons must be made at least 24 hours in advance of lessons, except for special cases (such as medical emergencies).
For postponement of the first lesson, SmileTutor must be informed via phone call at +65 6266 4475 (Mon to Sun 9am-8pm). A confirmation SMS will be sent to you acknowledging your postponement after the call. However, if you are informing at least 48 hours in advance, an SMS made to +65 9014 4201 will suffice.
Postponements of lessons after the first lesson may be made directly between tutor and tutee.
Please note that failure to make a postponement at least 24 hours in advance may incur compensation to the tutor for time loss (e.g wasted trips). Generally, the compensation amount is 50% of 1-lesson fee.
Can I terminate lessons if the tutor is not suitable?
You may terminate the tuition at any time after the first lesson but must inform SmileTutor at least 24 hours in advance of the next lesson and must pay for all lessons conducted. Terminations made less than 24 hours before the lesson will incur a late charge of 50% of that lesson’s total fee.
Termination Procedure
1. Inform SmileTutor via a phone call to +65 6266 4475 (9am-8pm) at least 24 hours in advance before the next lesson
2. Pay for lessons conducted, half directly to SmileTutor and WhatsApp the receipt to our Finance Dept. at +65 9450 4390
3. Pay the other half directly to the tutor
However, note that once you have confirmed the assignment to book the tutor in quote, there is a binding contract to complete one full lesson and you may only request a change of tutor or terminate the tuition only after that 1st lesson. If you decide to change your mind before the 1st lesson even commenced, the fee for the unfinished first lesson may be charged as an administrative fee.
Will tutors postpone lessons?
SmileTutor does not encourage tutors to make frequent postponements to the lessons. However, we do encourage you to offer some degree of flexibility as tutors are also human and may fall sick or have sudden emergencies from time to time.
If the tutor we assigned to you happen to make postponements more frequently than you prefer, you may wish to communicate with them and remind them to stick to the usual lesson schedule. Sometimes, a simple effort to communicate between both parties can go a long way in avoiding any disruption in lessons or last-minute discrepancies.
If you face further difficulties with your tutor in this area, please feedback to us immediately and we will arrange a new tutor for you.
Can my tutor terminate the lessons?
For termination of lessons, tutors are expected to commit for at least the 4-weeks of tuition. If the tutor backs out of an assignment without a valid reason (e.g. illness) before completing at least 4-weeks of tuition, he/she will not be entitled to receive any tuition fees. i.e. You will only be required to pay 50% of the tuition fees (plus any applicable taxes) directly to the agency.
Unfortunately, we are unable to force tutors to commit for more than 4-weeks. However, we do encourage responsible behaviour and let our tutors know that they should do their best to commit at least until the end of year exams. Most of our tutors follow through.
What about adding of subjects or students (e.g siblings)?
You may wish to try out one subject first and then add more subjects subsequently. Or, when starting the tuition, you may find yourself wanting to increase the frequency of lessons or to engage the same tutor for your other children. In any of these cases, please make your request through the agency in order to stay protected and keep the tutor accountable to the agency.
SmileTutor is not responsible for any engagements made outside of the agency’s knowledge. Hence, tutors and tutees are expected to inform their coordinators of any added lessons or changes to the lessons schedule/subjects/tutees immediately.
How do I feedback to SmileTutor regarding my good/bad experience?
You may email us at Email for any feedback or questions that are not answered under this FAQ.
For private feedback about the agency service, you may contact Rum (Founder) at 97558257 or email him at Rum Email.
We appreciate your help in providing us accurate feedback so as to improve our service and system.

Why Is Learning Guitar a Must-Have Skill for Kids in Singapore?
1. Improved Academic Performance
Studies have shown that learning a musical instrument, such as the guitar, can improve cognitive abilities and concentration, which are transferable to academic subjects like Math and English.
2. Prestigious Music Schools
Singapore boasts prestigious music schools like SOTA, offering high-quality guitar curricula. These institutions attract students and parents seeking a rigorous and structured learning environment, with expert instructors and a strong focus on both technical skills and artistic expression, providing a solid foundation for aspiring musicians.
3. Building Confidence and Discipline
Guitar lessons are not just about playing music; they are an opportunity for children to build self-confidence and discipline. In Singapore’s competitive education environment, where students are often under pressure, having a hobby like guitar playing offers a healthy outlet for self-expression and stress relief.
In the guitar world, it’s easy to fall into the comparison trap. Seeing others master solos or glide through chords can spark self-doubt, turning excitement into anxiety. Left unchecked, this fear can stifle growth and steal the joy of making music, making practice feel like pressure instead of passion.
Finding the Perfect Guitar Tutor
We are here to help your child unlock their full potential and become a guitar master.
Teaching Style
The teaching style of your guitar tutor plays a significant role in how quickly and effectively you learn. Some students thrive with a structured approach, where each lesson follows a clear curriculum, building on previous skills. Others prefer a more flexible and creative environment, where they can experiment with techniques and explore different musical styles.
Finding a tutor whose teaching style matches your preferences can make the learning process smoother and more enjoyable. Whether you need a well-structured lesson plan or a more relaxed approach, our tutors are skilled at offering Personalised instruction.
Our tutors are patient, offering constant encouragement and positive feedback, helping you stay motivated even when things get tough. With SmileTutor, you’ll not only learn to play the guitar but also build a deep love for music.
