My goal with the “Creative Guitar Studio” program was to develop a guitar course using student interaction. I wanted to have ‘direct feedback’ along the way. The result is a step by step course dedicated to guitar…
LESSONS DEVELOPED WITH THE STUDENT IN MIND:
Anyone who has spent time researching guitar courses on the internet has already discovered that there are literally hundreds of “guitar methods” to choose from – and new ones are coming to market every few months.
With so many choices it can be rather difficult to find a high-quality guitar program – a program where the student feels they can trust it from the very beginning to produce the kind of results they are hoping for.
THE ULTIMATE GUITAR COURSE:
When the Creative Guitar Studio course was first under development the internet wasn’t even around. It was the early 1990’s and I was teaching guitar in both private and group settings. I used that environment to start testing different teaching methods. Some ideas worked well – others did not.
Over a period of six years, the course material was supplied to hundreds of guitar students and steps were taken along the way to make sure that all of the information in the course worked with every student.
The goal was to create the, “ultimate guitar course” based upon how guitar students – no matter their background – could most effectively take in and use the information. Anything that didn’t prove as functional was discarded.
I spent so much time testing the material with a “hands-on” approach, and it proved to be the key factor behind creating what I believe is now one of the highest quality step-by-step guitar programs available.
POWERFUL GUITAR CURRICULUM:
The core curriculum at Creative Guitar Studio offers students the opportunity to reach new levels of guitar playing skill right from a beginner level. It contains three stages; Introductory, Intermediate and Advanced.
By 1996, I had the course fully developed. Over the next ten years it had successfully proven itself as more than effective. At the ten year anniversary in 2006, I celebrated teaching the course to over 1,000 guitar students enrolled at my music school.
Every part of each course stage was highly scrutinized throughout those early years. Anything that wasn’t perfect was re-organized until it functioned properly.
The end result is a unique guitar course that I think is unlike anything which has ever been made available on the market.
CREATIVE GUITAR STUDIO ONLINE:
In 2008, the Creative Guitar Studio website was launched along with my Creative Guitar Studio YouTube channel. Over the next seven years a digital platform was established for Creative Guitar Studio, with the first online students enrolling in the year 2015.
Since then, the website (along with the courses) has grown to an online membership of over 35,000 guitarists studying my courses.
