Questions & Answers with Neil Hogan - #1.7

Q. I wouldlike to get into guitar instruction. What advice can you give me?

A. Guitar instruction is a great profession to aspire to, kind of. Thereare great rewards if it is something you like to do. Unfortunately, I know ofmany teachers who are really just doing it as a way to keep busy while they arelooking for that big break- the record contract or the million-dollar gig.

In order to be a good teacher, youhave to enjoy sitting down with students and patiently explaining concepts andtechniques to them until the ideas are clear in their heads. This means theconcepts and techniques have to be clear in your head first, then you have tobe able to communicate them to the student.

If this sounds like something youcan do, I would guess you might enjoy being a guitar teacher.

Suggestion
written by Brian, March 24, 2009
Have you ever listened to The Song Remains the Same concert by Led Zeppelin? There's a song called Dazed and Confused. About six minutes through, they play their version of "San Fransisco". The guitar work is stunning. I can't find anyone who can duplicate it properly and pass on their lesson. I suggest a listen (or a watch on YouTube) and perhaps a lesson. If anyone can play it right, I'm sure its you. Thanks!
