The first skills to learn on guitar are tuning, basic chords, and simple strumming patterns.

• Tuning is essential because an out-of-tune guitar makes every chord sound wrong.
• Mastering open chords gives you a solid foundation for rhythm playing.
• Strumming patterns teach your picking hand how to keep time and add rhythm to chords.

Once you can switch between a few chords smoothly, try playing along to a simple song you enjoy.

• How long and how often you book (half-hour, full hour, one-off or regular)
• How you take your lessons (online, in-person at home, or at the tutor's studio)

Booking a package of lessons often brings the hourly rate down. Ask about introductory offers to find the right tutor risk-free.
