| Teaching Guitar??
I have self taught myself guitar for almost two years now, im no expert but i can play quite a few difficult songs and generally learn new songs with ease.
Just recently, a friend of my moms, who I have played for before, asked me to teach her son. She is paying 50$ a month (money I REALLY could use) and I feel like I could teach him, Ive taught my dad quite a bit and know all the strings, frets, and music theroy very well from playing the violin for 5 years.
So my question is, how should we start off? I was thinking that for the first lesson I could answer questions, teach him the parts of the guitar, how to tune, the strings, and maybe even some baby chords(like the 1 finger c and such). I dont want him to get bored, though, and dont know what his attention span is or his expectations for this class.
prehaps we could take one of his favorite songs and make a goal to learn it a little at a time throughout the classes?
Please let me know if you have ANY tips please and T.Y.
