Through the years I’ve had the privilege of meeting lots of new students and teaching literally thousands of acoustic guitar lessons. The students learned a whole lot but I think i have benefited from it just as much if not more. Everyone who comes to me for acoustic guitar lessons has different goals and different levels of commitment. It’s my job to find out what their goals are together with determine their degrees of motivation and dedication. After I understand that I can begin to come up with suitable acoustic guitar lessons for them.
It is sensible from a business viewpoint because once they reach what they’ve set out to do they’ll continue to come back for more since what I make them learn delivers results.
Secondly and maybe most importantly it will help me to feel better about delivering great quality lessons for them in order that they get much more value than what they paid for. It’s truly a win-win scenario.
So let’s get back to that word perfect. It sounds great. ‘The Perfect Acoustic Guitar Lesson’ but sadly it doesn’t exist. There’s no such thing as perfection as we’re always aiming to do more and to be much better than we currently are. So if perfection is a moving target why aim for that? Instead aim for something which is concrete and real. Like learning new strumming patterns to help you add spice to your rhythm playing and breathe new life to the songs you know. After I realize that is what a student is after then i can finally get moving on supplying a lesson that’s ‘perfect’ for them depending on their set goals.
That same lesson could be a total disaster for another person who just desires to learn some fingerpicking in order that he is able to serenade his girlfriend. Which is why there isn’t any universal perfect acoustic guitar lesson. So instead of spending hours online looking for the perfect lesson rather get crystal clear about what it really is you’re after and find somebody who can in fact do that and teach it to you.
