Geek99 Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 I had one this week too, place is five mins walk from work - teacher is actually a drummer I was having trouble with placing notes, counting and do on We did a fairly creditable short version of"stand by me" Which surprised me as it's years since I played along with anyone else Quote
seashell Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 Lessons are great! I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Let us know how you get on. Quote
BottomE Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 How will it work via Skype? How can the teacher hear/see what you are doing? Quote
Blademan_98 Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 I was taking lessons until I got made redundant. I will take them up again once I get a job sorted They are great, especially if you have something specific to learn. Quote

I guess it depends what you are meaning to learn. Have you anything specific in mind? Quote
