Want To Finally Make It By Teaching Guitar For A Living?
Teaching guitar is both fun and a great way to earn a living as a musician outside of working the typical 9-5 jobs that are out there. Whether you are where you want to be on guitar or still have a ways to go – you can likely begin teaching right now.
A ton of guitar players try to build their music careers without the stability that teaching music provides.
Big mistake!
Why?
This just makes things a lot harder than they need to be.
Teaching music helps you earn tons of money, change the lives of your students and stay involved in music every day (if you want)!
Sound good?
Thought so!
The best way to get started teaching guitar is to work with a guitar teacher trainer.
Why?
It helps you avoid teaching lessons through trial-are-error, so you remain confident, get the best results and learn how to quickly grow your teaching business by taking the precise steps needed to get to the next level.
Whether you give guitar lessons, vocal lessons, piano lessons, or any other kind of music instruction, it is important to understand the best way to go about teaching.
In spite of the obvious technical differences of teaching different instruments, music instruction works very similarly regardless of the instrument being taught. By understanding the general idea of how music instruction works, you can increase the quality of your lessons, and help your students become great musicians.
For example:
One very important concept to understand is that teaching music is 80% about teaching people and 20% about teaching music.
This means in order to become a great music teacher, you must really pay close attention to the unique needs of your students (what motivates them, frustrates them, etc).
Some guitar students may need a more encouraging approach, and some a more blunt and to the point approach. Typically, this applies to beginners (former) and advanced guitar players (latter).
The best way to understand exactly which approach to use is to get guitar teacher training from an expert who has helped many other people teach for a living.
