Most of my lessons are 30 minutes which I find is ample time for most students.

$30 for a 30 minute lesson.

I make every attempt to re-schedule on a different day but cannot guarantee a catch-up lesson.

Generally speaking it's advisable to have your own instrument.  I can provide an instrument for the lesson if necessary. 

It's completely normal to hit a plateau in your progress.  I suggest we identify specific areas where you're feeling stuck, whether it's a particular skill, song, or concept. 

From there, we can create a personalized practice plan to address these challenges. Remember, progress can sometimes be slow, but every small step counts. Let's also incorporate some new techniques or styles to spark fresh enthusiasm and creativity in your playing. I'm here to support you, so with some focused effort, I’m confident you’ll see improvement. 

Not at all!  I've taught students in their 80's who've never played before.  Maybe playing the guitar is something you've thought about over the years but have never got round to doing.  Just give it a try.  At the very least you'll have some fun learning and with a little perserverance you'll be amazed at the progress you can make.
