Should I Take a Guitar Lesson or Learn on My Own at Home?
Posted in guitar lessons on 28. Jul, 2010
A guitar lessons question that should definitely interest you all this week
Question: I have an acoustic guitar and has couple of books to teach myself a guitar, however, I have not yet learned how to play. I have learned about 10 chords, but knowing these chords does not make me a guitar player….. I have been thinking of taking a guitar lesson, is it worth it?
Answer: >>I have been thinking of taking a guitar lesson, is it worth it?<<
Guitar lessons (not just one lesson) are totally worth it. Statistics show that 90% of people who try to teach themselves, fail. If you’re serious about learning to play the guitar, take lessons. Good luck.
take the lessons
I say learn at home, which is what I’m doing. I’m also taking lessons and really don’t see the need. There are tons of sites to help you out. If you need me to give you some, shoot me a message.
It all depends on what you want to do with the instrument. Is it a passion or just a hobby?
Why not combine the two and buy a course that offers you the chance to have lessons at home?
I have used a course in which you learn via DVDs. They are designed at beginners and help you develop your guitar playing.
The online support is amazing
You need to do both. If you practice once a week with your instructor and that’s it, then you’re never going to get anywhere. What he shows you in class, you need to take home and work on that week, everyday, for hours and hours and hours. From there, you need to start reading tabs on your own for songs to play, and when you get stuck, you can ask your instructor how to play them.
