Publisher's Synopsis
A number of books have written aimed at music teachers. Most centre on classroom tuition; a few cover general instrumental teaching but, again, the emphasis is often on working in schools and/or in group contexts. This book is a practical look at being a full-time, privately-based guitar tutor delivering lessons on a mainly one-to-one basis. The text is not about lesson content but about the business and day-to-day running of a tuition practice and the considerations a tutor needs to keep in mind. The book will be useful to those considering taking this step, those new to the profession and to those stepping up from part-time tuition as well as being full of insights and helpful tips for those who are already full-time guitar teachers. Indeed, any private or peripatetic music tutor will find something of benefit within these thoughtful pages, based upon over three decades of experience.
