Can An Adult Learn To Play Guitar On Their Own?
In today’s lesson, we are going to talk about adult learning. Can an adult learn to play the guitar on their own? Yes, they can.
They just need to have a desire to learn and be willing to take action upon that desire until the mission is accomplished.
You Need Desire
Anyone with the desire to learn can learn just about anything. I say just about because there might be certain physical obstacles at certain ages on certain things.
But besides that, you can learn just bout anything you choose as long as you have the desire to do so. Desire is everything when it comes to accomplishing anything. Even learning guitar.
If you have a burning desire to do something (anything) you will do whatever it takes to make it happen. It’s that simple. But you must have that burning desire!
Anyone Can Learn
When it comes to playing guitar, anyone can learn on their own at just about any age. Doesn’t matter if you’re 17 or 70. And as far as learning on your own, that is completely doable at either age.
As an adult, you just need to choose which method is best for your learning style. And if you’re not sure, I recommend you try a few different types. Here are a few to consider.
Four Ways To Learn On Your Own
-
YouTube videos
-
Learn Guitar method books
-
Friends and family
-
Online Video Course
Any of these four choices can work and do work. You just have to decide which one is best. I recommend you try the YouTube videos to begin with.
Learning from method books has always been a great option, as that is how I learned many, many years ago.
Friends and family are also a great option as you can get instant feedback and have fun in the process of learning your favorite guitar riff,
But the one I’d say is the best, is an Online Video Course. This is like the method book option, but better because you get to see a video of the lesson that you are learning. Second to being taught by life by the teacher.
Benefits Of Online Video Courses
Online video courses are a great way to learn. Especially if you are a DIY kind of person.
You get to go at your own pace. You can learn around your schedule. And, you have lifetime access to the course. Not to mention, that they give you a chance to develop self-discipline and time management.
Here is a course I created for the total beginner. It works with both electric and acoustic guitars. So, no matter which one you want to learn, this course will get you started.
