Here's what we hear most often — and why none of them are actually a problem.
Twenty to thirty minutes a day is enough. We'll structure lessons so your limited practice time delivers real progress.
We've successfully taught students well into their eighties. The research on adult neuroplasticity is on your side — and so are we.
Most people quit because they had no structure and no accountability. We fix both. Our method keeps you moving forward, visibly.
Our teachers have experience with exactly this. We adapt technique to what your hands can do — and playing often helps, not hurts.
The path
A clear structure so you always know where you are and what's next.
Five private half-hour lessons to get the fundamentals in place: technique, chords, basic reading, rhythm. Your teacher, your pace.
After your intro you join a small group (max 5) at your level. More motivating, more affordable, statistically more likely to keep you playing.
As your skills develop you start specialising — rock, blues, jazz, fingerpicking, whatever drew you to guitar in the first place.
One-on-one first
In your intro lessons we work through the sheet music, the technique, the chord shapes — whatever you need, at whatever pace makes sense for you. No rushing, no comparing yourself to anyone else.
By the end of your five weeks you'll have a solid foundation and the confidence to step into a group.
Then — the group
Adult students in small groups outperform solo learners on almost every measure. You stay accountable, pick up things from watching peers, and it's simply more enjoyable than grinding through it alone.
Groups are capped at 5. Always matched by level. Your teacher still gives individual feedback every session.

What our adult students say
I've been going to G4 for about a month and I can already see the difference. The introductory lessons with Alex have been extremely informative and I truly feel his compassion and conviction to help me improve. I love that G4 is open late so I can attend after work.
Alex combines a structured beginners fundamentals course with songs and tips personalised for what you want to learn. He has a clear teaching style helpful for both kids and adult learners. He's also building a great community with studio concerts and fun videos!
Incredible guitar school — would highly recommend for everyone from absolute beginner to seasoned professional looking for a tune up. Thanks for all the support!
