If you’ve tried guitar lessons before and didn’t feel they helped – I want to let you in on something.
Not all guitar teachers are the same.
The unfortunate thing about guitar teaching is no qualifications are required for someone to start doing it.
In order to work as a personal trainer, you’ve got to be qualified. In order to work as a plumber, you’ve got to be qualified.
But when it comes to teaching guitar, you don’t.
A great many guitar teachers DON’T teach professionally, DON’T understand how to run a quality class and DON’T know how to help you get to where you want to be.
Sometimes they’re running a few lessons here and there after they finish their day job for some cash money.
Sometimes they run the odd lesson here and there between paid gigs.
Sometimes they’re traveling and are advertising guitar lessons on Gumtree for extra money.
If you want to find a guitar teacher who can really help you, be sure of the following things;
They teach professionally, preferably full-time.
They have some amount of qualifications.
They have helped other people do what you want to do.
They know what they’re talking about.
They have lots of positive testimonials.
