Quote:FWIW I used to teach guitar lessons, and I would recommend looking into it also. The absolute biggest hurtle to cross when teaching someone to play guitar is to keep them engaged, especially when a particular technique doesn't come quickly or easily to him/her.

I can't tell you how many students I had quit because their fingers were still really sore after two weeks, or they had a hard time learning to hold a pick properly, or couldn't quite get down that F chord etc.


I think at the very least this game would help your son stay engaged in learning.


Oh, and as far as learning via YouTube, I think the Justinguitar channel gives pretty solid free lessons on there. Hope he sticks with it!
