SOUND FAMILIAR?
Group guitar works brilliantly. Until this happens.
- The levels drift apart. One student practises every day, another doesn't. By week six they're miles apart, someone's bored and someone's in tears.
- A spot opens up and you can't fill it. You're halfway through the book, so a new student can't join.
- Your teacher is away. Nobody else knows what to teach, so the class is cancelled.
- So it's back to private lessons. Your waitlist grows, and your income stays capped by the hours in the day.
If you've tried groups before and watched them fall apart, it wasn't you. Private lessons build step by step, so a student joining part way through can never "catch up". Guitar Stars' cyclical structure means new students get another chance in the next workbook to master what they missed.
HOW IT WORKS
Made for groups, from the first note.
SEE IT IN ACTION
A first lesson: everyone plays together.
A minute from a real Guitar Stars class. Students learn a new note, jump straight into the song, and finish by singing it together.

Instant access: workbooks, lesson plans, training videos and more for 7 days.
2. Book your launch call

“I was literally just able to go to my guitar teacher, give him the information and the booklets, and off they went.”
