Beginners Guitar - 8 weeks

Delivered by lead tutor and founder of The Guitar Social, Thomas Binns

Course Overview 

This is a course for people that have never played guitar before and it is Thomas’ absolute  favourite, writing this himself, in third person, to make himself seem more important.

 I have delivered this to thousands of people, and most of them are still with me to this day, many are playing in bands and music and the creation of music is central to all that their daily lives. I would go as far to say that the teaching of beginners is sort of the summit of my working life, it is what I do the best out of all the things that The Guitar Social does. That’s why I, LOVE this course. I have little else to say about it other than do it, you won’t regret this. 

Learning outcomes 

By the end of the course you’ll be playing more than eight songs, you’ll be able to read tab, you’ll know all the chords you need to play many more songs and you’ll feel like a guitarist.

Our full outcomes are a bit of a secret. Like the KFC spice mix or whatever it was that was in the suitcase in pulp fiction.  Email me for the list

Electric or acoustic? 

You should always bring whatever you have the most playing. Electric players are expected to bring their own amps and leads. If you need help buying your first guitar, get in touch. 

Can't make every session?

This is very common. If you miss up to a third of your program, we can keep you up to speed with video and email support.  We are also flexible with our schedule. If you need to jump on another session on a different date, the answer is always yes.
