Feel Like You’re Stuck, Too Busy, or Just Not Improving?

You’ve been putting in the time—practicing when you can, watching videos, maybe even trying a few apps—but progress still feels frustratingly slow. It’s easy to get stuck playing the same songs over and over, unsure of how to break through. Without clear direction, it’s hard to know what’s actually helping and what’s just keeping you busy. And when life’s already packed with work and family, it’s tough to stay motivated when you’re not seeing results.

And then the doubts creep in. Am I too old for this? Should I be further along by now? You’re not alone in feeling that way. Many adult musicians feel the same. But here’s the truth: it’s not a lack of talent—it’s a lack of the right support. You don’t need more random tips or rigid lesson plans. You need a clear path, a personalized plan, and a coach who truly understands where you’re coming from and how to get you where you want to go.

Finally—A Music Lesson Built for Adults Like You

At Milwaukee Music Lessons, we know what it’s like to feel stuck. Many of our students came to us after trying to learn on their own or taking lessons that just didn’t click. That’s why we’ve built our entire studio around one clear idea: adults deserve a better way to learn music—one that’s structured, personalized, and actually enjoyable.

Our team understands the adult learning journey because we’ve lived it. Founded by a Berklee College of Music graduate who started playing at 16, our studio specializes in helping late-start musicians who already have the basics and are ready to level up. We don’t waste time on cookie-cutter methods. Instead, we create custom plans that fit your goals, your schedule, and your learning style.

Reviews and Testimonials

“I’ve been taking lessons from Alex for over a month now and I’ve made more progress in that time than the dozens of times I’ve tried to teach myself. Alex is patient, explains things clearly (not just the how, but also the why), and makes it fun! I’m learning the songs I want to learn out of the gate. Alex shows me the proper techniques that have helped me get over the humps that held me back in the past and the tools that he offers have been huge (mp3 files of the songs that I can play along with has been a game changer). I can’t say enough about how happy and excited I am to be working with Alex and Milwaukee Music Lessons!”

– Stephanie Moore

"Alex Makes Music Fun Again For Me."

“In 1 month of working with Alex, I’ve been able to write a song, understand what key it’s in and come up with a solo that complements the song. It’s mind blowing how simple he makes it to understand. Alex makes music fun again for me.”

– Ken Hanrahan

"Could Not Be A Better Investment In Myself."

“I’ve been taking lessons with Alex for nearly 3 years and it’s been the best! His lessons are very student-led and he will teach me whatever I want to learn, which keeps me motivated, rather than learning from a structured book.” “Could not be a better investment in myself.”

FAQ

Our studio is located at 3951 S 71st Street, Milwaukee, WI 53220.

We serve the Milwaukee, West Allis, Greenfield, Greendale, Franklin, New Berlin, Hales Corners, and Oak Creek neighborhoods.

We do! While our focus is aimed at adults, we have served many children over the last decade and are proud to help kids and families who are serious about learning an instrument and want real results.

We offer piano, guitar, and drum lessons for ages six and up and we offer voice lessons to ages eight and up.

All lessons are tailored to the student based on their age, ability, and interests.

Yes—this is a great place for adults at any level, even total beginners. You don’t need experience, just a commitment to learning and showing up consistently. We’ll give you the structure, support, and guidance to help you hit your goals—no matter where you’re starting from.

If you're unable to attend a lesson, we offer four flexible makeup options to ensure you don't miss out:

  1. Online Lesson: Connect via Zoom, Skype, or FaceTime.

  2. Recorded Video Lesson: Personalized and tailored just for you!

  3. Gift Your Lesson: Share your lesson with a friend or family member.

  4. Makeup Sessions: Join us during our designated makeup times (currently Friday nights and Saturday mornings).

We’re confident in your musical growth! If, after 4 weeks, you don’t see progress, we’ll give you a free month of lessons. To qualify, students must log at least 20 days of practice in our online portal for 20 minutes each day during the 4-week period.

There are plenty of places in Milwaukee offering music lessons—some even at a lower price. But here’s why our students choose (and stick with) us:

 

1. A Studio Built Just for Lessons
We’re not a retail store with lessons on the side. Teaching music is all we do. That means our entire focus—from the space we’ve built to the systems we use—is designed to give you the best learning experience possible.

 

2. Real Support Beyond the Lesson
Progress doesn’t stop when your weekly lesson ends. From our online platform and monthly check-ins to social events and workshops, we support your growth every step of the way. We believe learning music is a lifestyle—and we help you live it.

 

3. Proven Experience and Methods
Our teaching methods are built on years of professional training, performance, and hands-on experience. We’ve refined what works and trained our instructors to bring that expertise directly to you.

"...It’s wonderful that my son has found such a great mentor."

“We’ve been with Alex for almost a year now. Our 11yr old son has loved his weekly guitar lessons and has improved so much in this time. He and Alex have established a really solid bond and it’s wonderful that my son has found such a great mentor. Alex is a talented and enthusiastic teacher, and we whole-heartedly recommend him. Thank you Alex!”

– Jess Weber

"My son has come a long way in just a few months."

“My son has been taking guitar lessons with Alex for a few months now and he loves it! He looks forward to going every week. Alex is fun and engaging. He is very student led and lets my son even choose songs that he wants to learn. He also encourages and pushes him in areas that need improvement. My son has come a long way in just a few months. Awesome teacher, highly recommend!”

– Scott Hoff

"I made the decision to learn to play the guitar from an experienced teacher..."

“Alex has the ability to adjust quickly during a lesson to meet a students needs. if I am not grasping a concept he will change wording, demonstrate or find an example in a song from his extensive memory bank. I made the decision to learn to play the guitar from an experienced teacher rather than try to figure things out for myself. I believe this is a good investment of my time and money..”

– Donna Galik

"Highly recommend."

“Alex is a professional both in playing and teaching. He is able to adapt his teaching style to whatever suites your needs, from beginner to advanced. Highly recommend.”

– Kyle Rasmussen

"...He defines a way to do it all intuitively."

“Alex is an amazing and patient teacher! The greatest part about learning guitar from him is that you don’t even realize how fast your progressing as you move from one song to the next. Unlike a traditional approach of learning notes and chords separately, he defines a way to do it all intuitively.”

– Henry Kosarzycki

"We observe demonstrable progress throughout each school year..."

“Our son has been a student for 3 years now and we keep coming back! Alex is thoroughly invested in our student’s success, and he makes such great resources available for practicing during the week. We observe demonstrable progress throughout each school year – a credit to both regular practicing and Alex’s instruction. Thank you so much!”

– Mark Nimmer

"Engaging, thoughtful about curriculum, and flexible throughout...."

My young children began piano lessons with Robin (Robyn?–apologies!) this past summer, and with every session, I’m increasingly impressed with her teaching skills. She’s engaging, thoughtful about curriculum, and flexible throughout, especially when meeting the pedagogical needs of a 7-yo and a 4-yo in the same session. No easy task! I highly recommend her instruction for a welcoming but challenging journey into piano.

– Leslie McAbee

"Our son enjoys practicing and likes that he gets to choose some of the songs he works on."

“Alex has been teaching our 12-year-old drum lessons for almost a year. It has been a great experience for our son. Alex shares his passion for music in a professional way, and works well with kids. Our son enjoys practicing and likes that he gets to choose some of the songs he works on. Alex is a clear communicator, and he is encouraging as well. I’m looking forward to watching our son grow as a musician under Alex’s guidance!”

– Louise Abramowski

"Our Son Looks Forward To His Lesson Each Week."

“Our 8 year old son started drum lessons with Alex about 6 months ago and he absolutely loves it. Alex is so nice, funny, and has a great way of engaging with the kids. He explains things very clearly and our son looks forward to his lesson each week. And he also likes that he gets to play “cool” songs. Thanks Alex!”

– Stacie Hojnacki

"...I look forward to every lesson..."

“I have two sons that are both talented musicians. As they were growing up they had many good teachers throughout the years. They, and I, were fortunate that way. So when I decided to take the challenge of learning to play an instrument myself I had a pretty good idea of what I’d need to succeed and learn.

I found Milwaukee Music Lessons with a Google search, they were close by and had daytime availability which I preferred. I am very happy that I did. I am working with Robyn and she is an absolutely wonderful teacher. She is a patient encouraging person who has taught me so much in such a short time. She takes time to work things out with me at my beginner level, even though she is an accomplished musician. Not every musician has the ability to work with those who are just starting, but Robyn does and I look forward to every lesson I attend with her. She knows how to get the most out of every session and I look forward to continuing my musical journey with her expert assistance.”

– Dave Skowronek

"Could not be a better investment in myself."

“I’ve been taking lessons with Alex for nearly 3 years and it’s been the best! His lessons are very student-led and he will teach me whatever I want to learn, which keeps me motivated, rather than learning from a structured book. Yet he also pushes me when I need it to make sure I’m improving. Not only is he an extremely talented guitarist, but he has an answer for every question, whether it’s about gear or music theory. Could not be a better investment in myself.

– Sydney Drosen

"Alex Makes Music Fun Again For Me."

“I’m 53 and wanted to expand my music knowledge and better my guitar playing skills. Alex has been able to not only go at a pace that fits my comprehension, but give me lessons to work on at home so I can work on at my own speed. In 1 month of working with Alex, I’ve been able to write a song, understand what key it’s in and come up with a solo that complements the song. It’s mind blowing how simple he makes it to understand. Alex makes music fun again for me.
