Mike Glendinning Guitar Instructor

About

I can give suggestions on how to write ear-catching songs.

I can show you techniques on bringing out your very own style on the guitar.

I offer many solutions to how you can learn the guitar. We can have a lesson in person. We could have it on live video chat.

Or I can make a video for you that you would have access to 24/7. You tell me what you want to learn a few days beforehand and I would make the video answering your questions. It would be followed by an email or a video chat.

I'm very flexible when it comes to what you learn on the guitar. While some instructors only want to stick to their curriculum, I’ll do what I can to keep your imagination open while reaching our goal.

    Frequently asked questions

    I ask the student what kind of goals they have. 

    I have been playing the guitar for over 30 years. I have taken lessons during a large portion of that time. 

    We can have our lessons on video confrence for $30 (30 minutes)

    I have a $15 special offer. If you tell me what you want to learn 3 days beforehand I will make a special video with a typed lesson plan. It will also be followed up with a 10 minute conference call. 

    I once took lessons from a well known metal guitarist and thought how cool it was. I also enjoy being a part of a tradition that keeps the imagination moving forward. 

    I have workef with all age groups. My youngest being 5 and my oldest to be around 80. They have all asked for help with many genres of music. Others learn differently than others. I have been able to help them either reach their goals or head into the right direction with the guitar.  

    I have students that have been taking lessons from me off and of for over 18 years. It's always an awesome feeling when they come back. 

    The teacher can only do so much. It's up to the student to get the results. Find a teacher who has what you want.
