A guitar lesson with me might entail the following:
Guitar lessons basically take the same shape across the board but tailored to any specific desire the student may have. We would go through reading/technique exercises or talk about theory. If desired we can learn a specific song if the student so chooses.

Someone who practices and is excited and enthusiastic about learning.
