Distance: mi
Guitar Center Lincoln 2801 Pine Lake Rd. Suite P2 Lincoln, NE
Hi! My name is Johnny and I've been drumming for around 11 years. I started in the 3rd grade and never stopped. I was involved in any music related endeavors I could find in high school and continued drumming after graduating. I started by playing jazz, but now I love midwestern emo, hip-hop, rock. I focus heavily on teaching technique and the basics along with teaching whatever my students want to learn. I'm a firm believer of student-led lessons and existing as a guide for anyone who wants to learn. Currently, I'm studying Finance at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and am still learning and growing as a drummer.

Guitar Center Lincoln 2801 Pine Lake Rd. Suite P2 Lincoln, NE
Hi! My name is Ellie! I am a musician and educator in Clarinets, Saxophones, Flute, and Piano originally from Green Bay, Wisconsin! I started my music career at the age of 11 by playing clarinet! I quickly expanded my instrumental abilities and picked up saxophone just a year later, and flute and piano shortly after that! I received my Bachelor of Music degree in Clarinet Performance from Saint Norbert College in De Pere, Wisconsin and I am currently working on my Masters degree in Woodwind Specialties at the University of Nebraska - Lincoln. I have previously performed as concertmaster in the Fox Valley Concert Band, Jazz Band and Jazz Combos, the Earthtones, the Civic Symphony of Green Bay as well as other smaller gigging groups! The styles of music I find myself performing the most are Jazz, Classical, Bluegrass, Pop, and Country. I have been teaching private lessons for the past several years and believe in a student-centered learning environment, creating a supportive and engaging environment where students can explore their interests and achieve their goals while using critical thinking skills and increase their confidence!

Hi! My name is Caleb Daniels and I teach drums/percussion here at Guitar Center as well as guitar, bass, and piano. I’ve been teaching music for over a decade and the only thing I enjoy more than teaching music is actually playing music! I have earned my Bachelor of Arts degree in Music from East Texas Baptist University in 2021 and a Masters of Music from Northwestern State University of Louisiana in 2023. I am currently working on Doctorate in Jazz Studies at UNL. Originally from Louisiana, I have performed with several local, touring and educational groups. I would love to schedule some in person or online lessons anytime!
Daniel Helzer
Distance: mi
Guitar Center Lincoln 2801 Pine Lake Rd. Suite P2 Lincoln, NE
Hi! My name is Daniel! I’m a multi-instrumental performer, composer, and researcher here in Lincoln, Nebraska. I’m in the last year of my Bachelor’s degrees in Music and Anthropology at UNL, where my research is focused on the ways different instruments affect how we write and perform music. I’m classically trained in French Horn, but I’ve been playing rhythm section instruments – drums, guitar, and bass – my whole life. I grew up jamming blues and rock with my family and friends, and have since delved into jazz, metal, pop, and more. I’ve played horn at the Lied Center, bass in Pinnacle Bank Arena, and guitar in Memorial Stadium. I believe that anyone can be musically expressive and impactful regardless of age or technical ability, and I’ll meet you wherever you are. In my spare time, I write music in my room and build guitars in my basement.​

Frequently Asked Questions
Each instructor customizes lessons to ensure you are learning what you like and having fun. Your instructor will start you slowly, introducing new concepts each week, plus give you exercises or easy songs to play to keep you learning at home.
Learning an instrument is an enriching and rewarding experience that creates lifelong benefits, including increased self-esteem and the boosting of memory. Additionally, benefits for school-age individuals can include improved coordination, the expanding of social skills, and higher scores in math, reading and language.
30-minute lessons allow young or beginner students to learn the basics of the instrument and start playing songs. 60-minute lessons are ideal for more advanced students looking to progress faster and focus on the finer points of technique.
This varies by age and the type of goals the student has set out to achieve. However, most new students usually spend 15–30 min. practicing daily, while advanced students can practice for an hour or more each day in between lessons.
Our flexible curriculum allows students of all skill levels to experience growth. We help create a foundational understanding of music theory through the style of music you want to play. Our instructors will work to understand your goals and passions, and make sure you are on the path to learning what you want at your own speed.
Our Lessons staff will work with you to determine your current skill level, stylistic interest and ambitions. We'll then help you choose an instructor who best suits your style and goals. If at any point, you'd like to change instructors, let us know. Our weekly monitoring of progress and wide-ranging curriculum means you can switch to any of our qualified instructors, or another instrument, without missing a beat.
