Why Most People Fail at Learning How to Play the Guitar
Like many beginners, I started by teaching myself—wasting time on tabs, learning in the wrong order, and building bad habits that slowed me down.
And over time, I learned that I wasn’t the only one trying to approach learning to play the guitar in the wrong way.
The real issue isn’t time, age, or hand size—it’s the lack of guided instruction. With the right teacher, anyone can become a great player.
Stop misdiagnosing your playing problems. With structured lessons, you’ll overcome blind spots, break through plateaus, and actually enjoy the process.

“I am a beginner guitar player and I really appreciate how patient Ryan has been. He has taught me not only how to strum, play notes and chords, but has also helped me understand the guitar and proper technique. He keeps it interesting and fun and adapts the lessons to my interests. He also finds unique ways of helping me when I am stuck on a specific skill. Highly recommend Twin Cities School of Guitar.”
