Mastering an instrument is a lifelong endeavor. However, we feel that students can learn a good portion of the musical and guitar fundamentals with the 1 on 1, instructor lead training necessary to get them playing any of their favorite songs in the shortest amount of time possible.
- It is highly recommended students practice daily for 20-40 minutes.
While students can’t always practice daily and some weeks may be missed, it is necessary to dedicate time to stay on schedule. It is common for some students with prior music experience or a natural proclivity for music to advance faster, while others need more time; however, just like with any project schedule, falling too far behind will likely jeopardize the project.
