No problem at all! I teach all levels, from total beginners to advanced players.
You'll receive step-by-step guidance tailored to your goals and pace—whether you're learning your first notes or diving into advanced techniques.​​​




Learn the Language of Music
As part of your lessons, we’ll explore Music Theory—the key to understanding how music works. This not only helps you play more confidently but also boosts your skills in composition and improvisation.

Improvisation is a Specialty
Many students come to me specifically to improve their improvisation. It’s one of my passions—and I’ll help you unlock your musical creativity through structured and supportive training.

Lesson Pricing
$60 per hour
That’s it. Simple and straightforward.
But here’s the deal…
If we’re in the middle of something great—maybe you’re on the verge of nailing that solo
or finally making peace with your metronome—and we go a little over time?
No extra charge.
Seriously. I’m not setting a kitchen timer.
​
Why?
Because music isn’t always a strict 60-minute affair.
Sometimes the groove takes a little longer—and I’m here for it.
So come ready to learn, grow, and maybe even jam a little past the clock.

Thomas is an excellent teacher - he make complex ideas understandable. I am beginning to understand the 'language' of music and my skill level is improving with his guidance. He is very patient with me, I really appreciate that! ~ G.H. Dunedin FL
I have been taking mandolin and guitar lessons with Thomas Zach for the past 2 years. He has taught me everything, from the beginner level I started at, to the advanced level I am at now. I have always had a good time learning from him and now I am able to play well on my own and with bands. ~ S.M. Clearwater FL
