What it takes to be an excellent modern guitar teacher
When it comes to teaching guitar, the biggest influence we’ll ever have is our own guitar teacher. This can be an awesome experience both for our guitar playing and teaching if we had a great teacher, but can also be severely limiting to our playing and detrimental to our own teaching if we had an inexperienced teacher who may become our only experience of how guitar should be taught. This course will bring your attention to essential, educational and even psychological concepts that you can implement into your teaching to become a truly wonderful modern guitar teacher.
