I go to guitar lessons once a week for almost a year, I have one on one instruction with my teacher, I am older student around 52. The last 2 months I have had alot of difficulty with my guitar assigments. I am using Mel Bays Complete Method for Modern Guitar. Mr. Bays songs have a lot of fingering and mutiple combinations of notes being played at the same time to form the melody.
Lately I have not been able to even complete one assigned lesson with my teacher without making mistakes, the teacher and I play the song together. I seem to make a lot of mistakes when I am at my lessons which results that I am stuck on the same lesson for 2 to 3 lessons, and I never really master the lesson before we move onto the next one.
When my teacher asks me to play a previous song from earlier lessons I do a complete brain dump.
So I am reaching a point of frustration and self doubt that I will ever play the guitar. I practice at home every day, but sometimes I feel that my practice is not efficient. I books on guitars but few of them spend a lot of time on practice.
