01

Saudi time and the working week

Saudi Arabia stays on Arabia Standard Time all year, so the conversion never changes. The weekend is Friday and Saturday.

School children usually book from 3 pm on school days. Adults often choose Friday or Saturday daytime. The last slot ends at 7:30 pm, so night lessons aren't available.

02

Planning around prayer times

Saudi daily life is organised around prayer times, and they shift through the year. When you book, tell us the times you want to avoid and we'll set the slot around them. For a regular weekly lesson, we keep the same time each week, and move it when the seasons change if you ask.

03

Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam and Al Khobar

Riyadh families often live in compounds or villas with enough space for a quiet corner. In Jeddah, many students book Friday and Saturday mornings. Dammam and Al Khobar students often book after 4 pm on school days. We teach all three regions the same way, as only the clock matters.

Indian-curriculum schools in Saudi Arabia are well established, and many of their students ask about guitar for school concerts and personal interest. Adults, including expatriate professionals, often learn in the evening hours of the day.

04

How a lesson works

You join a link. The teacher watches your hands through the camera and corrects as you play. You get a practice plan of 15 to 20 minutes a day. If online learning is new to you, how online guitar lessons work covers setup. Beginners learn two open chords in lesson one.

05

Fees and paying from Saudi Arabia

Prices are in Indian rupees.

Students usually pay by PayPal or Wise, which convert from Saudi riyals at the day's rate. Card and bank rules differ, so if your payment method is declined, tell us before your first lesson and we'll look at the options together. There's no lock-in. See private online guitar lessons.
