 Brett Gregory Guitar Studio (bggs.net)  -  Well Thought-Out Curriculum     
Last Updated:: 10/26/2007
The other reviewers have already effectively captured the highlights of Brett's teaching abilities and curriculum (and I agree with all of the comments that I've read so far.) Thinking hard about what to add, I came up with the following. When I poured over Brett's website a couple years ago, I must admit that I was more than a little unsure about my ability to make the level of commitment that Brett requires of his students. The web site's tone is necessarily stern to ensure that only committed students sign up for his lessons. So when I went in for my first lesson, I was a little surprised at how easy-going, patient and friendly he was (and still is). After a year of lessons, I'm still so impressed with the fact that I'm actually playing the guitar -- at age 44 something I never thought I would be able to do. Final Note: Being an Instructional Designer, I can truly appreciate all of the subtle techniques Brett employs to get his point across to me - from the use of colored pens to highlight points in the text, to the choice of colored text in his book, to the layout of the notebook pages as he places them in my binder. Brett shows an attention to detail that screams, "I'm serious about my role as an instructor. I WANT to help you learn guitar and I'm not just in this to make ends meet until something better comes along." If you're interested in a well thought-out, methodical approach to learning guitar, then you can't do much better than Brett Gregory.
