I have been playing the guitar for about a year and a half now, I started using the justinguitar website after a few recommendations on here, after a few months I started taking lessons every couple of weeks. So fast forward a year and to be honest where initially I felt I got a lot out of having lessons recently I have felt that all I get is a song tab put in front of me and shown how to play that song. I don’t really get much advice on technique, we have covered scales, and some finger picking.
Now when I go back to the justinguitar site he has excellent videos and instructions on how to position your hands / fingers when playing new chords and new techniques.
Now am I expecting too much from my teacher or should I be getting more than just shown how to play a song at a time? I have asked a few pointed questions regarding my technique and usually I am told I just need to figure it out on my own.
