      THE TEACHER

      CHOOSING the correct teacher is crucial. In case you are a self-taught player, bear in mind that getting amazing online guitar lessons for one quid per fortnight that promises to deliver with just a 10-minute practice routine per day could end up with catastrophic results…and that is crucial, too. A teacher is a human being, a musician that knows how to help YOU personally develop your musicianship and communication skills in order to have the sufficient language to communicate with other musicians. A really good teacher, regardless of his guitar skills, is the ideal person to construct a personalized practice schedule with your help and guidance. A personal guitar workout consists of all the necessary tools to turn you into an accomplished musician. I say regardless of his guitar skills because I’ve really met a lot of amazing guitar teachers in my life that just could not play the guitar very well, but they had the correct mindset and transmissibility. On the other hand, I’ve met other teachers with amazing chops, super face-pulling and face-putting, shredding skills - teachers with amazing knowledge, playing every chord or triad on the guitar - but they couldn’t teach. And not because they lacked knowledge, but because they just didn’t have the skill. So next time remember to choose your coach wisely and give him specific instructions on what you want to do and what your goals are. If he is one of the good ones, he will surely get your pace in no time, and he will show you how to do it the way you should. Besides that, at the end of the day, you wouldn’t like ending up like me, copying obscure triadic shapes without having any clue about
