What Do I Tell My Rock Lesson Guitar Teacher to Prepare Me for 1 Yr to Take Fingerstyle Guitar?

Keep the guitar lessons questions coming! I liked this one:

Question: basically my teacher doesn’t teach fingerstyle, so what do I tell him to prepare me to switch to fingerstyle guitar with another teacher in about 12 months?
Answer: He’s the teacher. You don’t "tell" him anything. Explain to him that you are really interested in fingerstyle and would like the best foundation that he can give you so that when it does come time for you to learn fingerstyle that you are set up for success. Just like you like to hear positive things, so do teachers. So let him help you, listen and do what he says, and if/when you are ready to move on, you can. You might also find that you need more than 1 year or that two teachers at the same time benefit you. Don’t rule anything out.
