I just started playing about 2 years ago. My first recommendation is to find someone close to the house or close to the office and make it convenient. This will give you a better chance of keeping it going.
Second, my personal opinion is this is an area where it's best to support a local or small business. No offense to Music & Arts but they're owned by Guitar Center which takes the shine off for me. When I was living in Katy, I did my lessons and bought my gear at Great Southern Music which is a father and son business, but it was a little bit of a haul. I'm now back in my house and the closest shop is Infinity Guitars at Memorial & Kirkwood so I do lessons there. I believe there's a local Takamine dealer down in the Kingsland and Mason area. You might find those guys and see what they offer for lessons.
Going back to my first point, I'm also thinking about looking for a private lesson from someone that can come to my house. I'm 90% acoustic and 10% electric right now, but I'd love lessons with my amps, my pedals, etc because I have no idea how to really set up the million plus buttons and knobs to get the AC/DC vs Van Halen vs whatever sound I want to try and replicate once I start working on the electric guitar more.
Anyway, my free advice...you get what you pay for ;-)
