Last summer I decided to try to teach my son how to play guitar. Since I have been playing for over 30 years, I figured that I would be able to impart my knowledge fairly easily. It turns out that playing the guitar is much easier than teaching it, and after a few weeks of our lessons, it was evident that he wasn’t making any significant progress.

Instead of doling out hundreds of dollars on professional lessons, I decided to try our luck with guitar lesson videos. After just a few hours practicing with the video, he already had learned more than in the weeks that I was teaching him. Now that he has some of the basic knowledge under his belt, I have been able to give him a few pointers that he can actually take advantage of.
