Become The Guitar Player You Want To Be
Do You Want To Learn Guitar But You Think You Are Too Old?
Think Again!
Being “too old” is one of the most common fears I hear — and it’s also one of the biggest myths about learning guitar.
My students in their 40s, 50s, and 60s are often amazed at how quickly they progress, while enjoying relaxed, pressure-free lessons. They play melodies from the very first lesson and feel a real sense of fun and accomplishment when they are able to play full songs after just a few weeks.
Continue reading, and you will see below what my students have to say about our guitar lessons.
Many of my students started later in life, with no musical background at all — and discovered that learning guitar can be enjoyable, rewarding, and far more accessible than they expected.
Are You Just Starting To Play Guitar?
Are You Wondering What To Learn Or What To Practice?
Did you take guitar lessons but didn’t improve as fast as you wanted?
Do You Feel Discouraged About Learning Guitar?
If you are asking yourself one of these questions, I completely understand.
I can easily relate. I understand how it feels.
For years, I felt I was always playing the same songs, the same chords, the same licks. I felt I was not making any progress at all.
I was always wondering: What should I learn first? What should I learn second? In other words, in which order should I learn things?
Also, I was starting to wonder: When I play this song, why do the chords fit together? What is the rule, what is the theory behind this?
Unfortunately, for years, even after looking for the information in books and watching Youtube videos, I could not find the answers.
It felt like learning a foreign language. I was learning the words, but I could not make a sentence.
Then, I found a great teacher who taught me guitar in a very methodical way, guiding me through all the skills in the right order — skills to become not only a good guitarist, but also a truly accomplished musician.
It feels amazing to know you are on the right path.
Today, I am helping guitar players to reach their goals, make real progress, and have a lot of fun playing guitar.
Do you want someone to design a strategy customized for you to reach your musical goals and fast?
Do you want to avoid wasting hours checking Youtube videos instead of practicing the right exercises?
It is possible to work the path in a straight line, and it is my job to be your guide.
What you need to become the guitar player you want to be is to work with a guitar teacher that gives you the right information at the right time, a guitar teacher that trains you, coaches you so that you are sure about what to practice and how to practice.

What Students Say？
“Even with zero prior experience, there’s no need to worry. Through the teacher’s carefully chosen songs and step-by-step, solid practice of various finger techniques, I can feel small improvements in every lesson. Beyond learning new skills, the teacher also pays careful attention to correcting posture and finger placement. Here, you can enjoy playing music in a relaxed way while gaining a real sense of achievement in life. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to learn guitar!”

Even though Ben is a foreigner, he speaks Chinese and carefully prepares lessons based on each student’s level. His relaxed and encouraging teaching style helped me learn many essential chords and techniques much faster than I expected.”

Frequently Asked Questions
I don’t have a guitar yet. Is that a problem?
Not at all! If you are interested in starting lessons but you haven’t bought a guitar yet, we can first meet for a free trial lesson. During that session, you will use one of our guitars, and we will help you to choose the right type and size of guitar that fits you. It’s better to decide together than to buy something that might not be suitable.
I have never played Guitar before; can you help me?
Of course, in fact it’s even better if you start from scratch. The less you’ve been doing it yourself, the fewer bad habits you’ve picked up and the faster we can develop your guitar playing.
Am I told old to learn guitar?
Not at all! There’s no age limit when it comes to learning guitar and enjoying music. It’s never too late to start.

I want to learn how to play the guitar, but I’m afraid I am not talented…
Becoming a good guitar player—or a good musician in general—has little to do with talent. In fact, the idea that talent is the key to success in music is one of the biggest myths out there. Talent might simply mean that some people naturally hold the guitar or the pick correctly from the start—but that’s about it. What truly matters is having a strong desire to learn and the dedication to keep going. With the right guidance from a professional teacher, anyone has the potential to become a great guitarist.
“I’m afraid I don’t have a good ear…”
Having a “good ear” is not something you’re just born with—it’s a skill that can be trained over time. If you didn’t have any ear for music, you wouldn’t be able to enjoy listening to it! So if you like music, you’re already more than qualified to start learning guitar. We even include specific ear training exercises in our program to help you develop this important skill step by step.
What is the price of the guitar lessons?
Regarding the price, we have different programs. The price of each program varies according to the needs of the students. During the free trial class, we will explain the different programs we are offering and help you find the program that suits you best.
Do I Need A Teacher To Learn Guitar?
That’s a great question! If you’re wondering whether you need a teacher, we recommend reading this article. It explains why learning with a teacher can make a big difference in your progress and enjoyment.
