As a guitar teacher, my very favorite students are all older than me (and I am not exactly a kid!). Here's why I love them:

For most, they are finally doing this thing for themselves that has always been in their heart. It is a beautiful energy to be around, a beautiful journey for me, as a teacher, to be invited into.

It's all about heart, a well-deserved gift to the self, love of music, AND, the courage to be a 'student' again!

In fact, here is a scenario I face not unfrequently, as I only teach 'live' lessons in my studio one day a week and have very limited openings. If I were to get an inquiry about taking lessons from the parent of a 13-year old beginner, and another inquiry from a 50-60-70+ year-old beginner (or re-beginner), I'll accept the older student every time.

Keep this conversation going - it is really wonderful!
All best wishes, Lisa
