ALL GUITAR TEACHERS ARE NOT THE SAME! Here's what you're not being told.
There is a BIG difference between a guitar instructor who teaches on the side in his or her spare time and one who is a PROFESSIONAL guitar instructor.Here's the typical situation. Your average run-of-the-mill guitar instructor teaches out of a music store. This music store has either many guitar teachers or just one. When you call about lessons, the store workers, not yourself, tells you which teacher that they think is right for you, which could also mean that this teacher is the only one who has the available day and time that you requested.
When you come in for your lesson, this instructor does not have a plan or curriculum ready for you, but "wings it" on the spot. They will ask you what type of music that you like, and they will show it to you. However, the problem is, this music, 99% of the time, is out of the student's scope or ability, unless of course, the student is an experienced player. But nevertheless, there is no plan or direction that will be offered to the student. And this is of no concern to this instructor, because they are getting paid. The student may think that they are making progress, when in reality, they are just playing notes from a piece of paper in front of someone, and not learning the CRUCIAL things that every guitarist should know.
This instructor will sometimes use method books with a one-size fits all mentality. This is just laziness on the part of the instructor. They will also sometimes excuse themselves from the lesson to schedule gigs at the local sports bar, which is, of course, his or her main priority. To sum it up: This type of instructor is not interested in improving their approach as an instructor, nor are they interested in the student's progress. How do I know all this? I have seen this in front of my very eyes many times in 10 different music stores that I have taught in around the country.
Worst of all, this guitar instructor tries to cram students in his or her schedule back to back, therefore, running the student out the door the minute the session is over. And if they do not, then the next student in line gets cheated out of their session time because the student before them is still gathering their stuff together, talking to the teacher, etc. This is inevitable. Therefore, lessons with this type of teacher are almost guaranteed not to start on time.
AND WHAT'S MORE....
Being able to play well does not mean that one is automatically a great teacher, no matter how many music degrees they have or how many students they can acquire. The general public focuses on the music degrees and years of experience playing, not their PROVEN METHODS OF TEACHING! This is the reason why there are very few good guitarists taking guitar lessons who never get anywhere with their playing.THERE IS A BETTER WAY.
Nothing is more rewarding for the student than to be able to play not only with confidence, but to become a musician, rather than just a tab reader. And also to be competent enough to play along with ANY guitarist at ANY level, is really cool as well. This is extremely rewarding to the player, and I feel that most other guitar instructors out there are cheating their students of this wonderful part of their musical journey. Not here. As for myself, I use a totally different approach.1) I will make sure that you are competent enough to play along with any other guitar player of any skill level within the first year!
2) You will be able to choose a program that is right for you, thus focusing on your specific musical needs and interests.
3) You will receive quality lessons from a professional guitar instructor who cares about your progress.
