It is true that basics are really hard to teach,
but bare in mind that there are many ways to teach same thing. And the more you know,you realize the point of basics. What I'm saying is that you'll not be able to share your knowledge that easily and effective if you know just a little bit more of basics. Of course you can teach, but it'll be somehow painful for you and your students. -------------------- Youtube

Guitar teacher is a specific job that you have to do and practice a lot to be good at, just like anything else. IMO it is not too important how broad the instructors knowledge is, but how well he can transfer that knowledge that he/she has to the student. If instructor can do that, and in the same time establish a good positive relationship with the student than it can be successful.

Well, my knowledge is reasonable. I didn't mean for it to sound like I'm a beginner myself. I was hoping for some more tips, indeed like "Easter Bunny Gets Drunk After Easter", as, like I said, I have worked in teaching and know how to teach. Sorry mate, didn't mean to say anything disrespectful, I think it is great you can teach, and was just stating some general opinion on the subject. About some tips, as Jad said, there are probably two kinds of teaching jobs, easy and hard ones. With easy ones students will wanna learn everything there is to know about the guitar, so you are there to show them the easiest way. The hard ones have little or no respect for the teacher and just wanna learn specific stuff that they have problems with, ignoring the basics like theory. The easy cases are cool cause you can commit to them, while others are passing by students that usually don't stay there for long. In general it is always best to keep the student learning as much as you can , and coming to classes by helping him/her to create a good strong relationship with the instrument. Also every session should be interesting and fun, not a routine. If there are more than 2 sessions that are the same or similar, students quickly loose interest and feel like they are not advancing too much.

I actually think theory is fun! It funny to see the logic when two things you have learned separetaly all of a sudden makes sence, together! The same with math.
