Hi Forum,
My name is National and I am from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. I decided after my long journey trying to find a good guitar teacher that I would try on-line learning. For the price you really can't go wrong unless you learn nothing or have sever ADD

I have recently tried to sit down with a few different people from Here in Toronto, Ont to learn and what a disaster. I had one guy who was $50 a hour with a degree from Music school who didn't even teach me correctly from the start. Thank god his first 2 lessons were free xP

I had one guy who came to my house for $40 per hour and a half. Which I thought was a super deal since I also wanted to learn the drums and had just bought a new drum set aswell. He turned out to be a 40 year old drug addict who didn't even have his own guitar let alone bring tab sheets or any materials at all to teach drums and guitar.

I had another guy trade e-mails with me and somehow I ended up not being worthy of his teachings. I just moved on quickly after shaking my head for a minute on that one.

Which brings me here, a tad pissed off yet hungry to learn. I am about a week and a half into my 14 day trial . Granted I have only sat down for about 30 mins the first day but have already learned more then I have from my previous teachers. I look forward to learning and hope this site helps me reach my goals of being a 30 something year old rock supastar xD

I have always wanted to learn to play yet never could afford to invest in it till recently. My favorite songs I am learning at this moment are AAF- Smooth Criminal, Black Sabbath - Ironman and at some point I want to get into a bit more heavy metal like Chop Suey by System of a down.

Later later on get into some nice relaxing Jazz for those mellow nights ;-)

That about concludes my intro, see you all around the forums.
