Learning to play an instrument on your own can be fun and rewarding provided you are
extremely disciplined, motivated, you own a copy of a superb guitar course and you are
connected to a respected group of musicians that can give you feedback on your progress.  
Few are the geniuses that have taught themselves.  The majority of virtuosos had formal
instruction as early as 3 or 4 years old.  Many of us do not have the good fortune to have mentors
with vision in regards to music.  However, as youth, young adults, or mature individuals we can
choose to develop our musical abilities by seeking formal music lessons.

Learning to play with an instructor has several advantages:
1. Valuable Information: Trained professional instructors are able to make it easy for you to
understand music notation and your instrument as well as provide challenging opportunities that
would benefit you in your quest for music knowledge.  Music theory and playing techniques are
presented in a simple and elegant methodology without compromising quality.

2. Targeted Feedback: Without someone to provide you with an educated feedback on your
progress, it would be very difficult to make proper adjustment to your own learning and playing
approach.  In addition, the lack of feedback that is carefully suited to your learning pace would
slow down your assimilation process and eventually lead to disappointment in many cases.  A
professional instructor is able to bridge the gap between knowledge and practical application.

3. Personal Interaction: There are online guitar courses, some are free, some you have to pay
for.  It is obvious that courses  you pay for  would be more valuable to a serious developing
musician.   You may also buy a great set of DVDs featuring a great instructor.   However, they all
lack instant feedback and the human touch of forming a relationship with someone that
genuinely cares about you as a musician.  At Bolero Guitar Resources we offer the best of both
worlds: Personal Touch and Online Supplementary work.
