What happens when things go wrong

The truth is most of the times when this happens it isn't the child's fault. With a slight modification to how you teach, you can easily change this habit. Even the best guitar teachers can fall for this trap and if you have ever experienced one of those students before you will know the frustrating feeling it creates. This guide will help you prevent it from happening.
