The BBC review online guitar lessons.
The BBC’s Bytesize presenter – Kate Russell’s weekly review of websites and apps showed us her opinion of on line game types of guitar lessons. Quite simply she is NOT impressed. ‘If you don’t own a guitar you can play it using the mouse, but thats boring’, she says.
If you want to learn to play the guitar you could have a go with Get Instinct. It is an online app that judges your performance by listening to the notes you play through a microphone or sound input. At Year Of Rock you can also sign up for a weekly lesson delivered by email. Both are poor in design and do not structure or provide the personal touch you recieve from a 1-2-1 tutor lesson.
Even the guitar is shown as a left-handed instrument and the strings all look the same gauge. Our verdict is DON’T BOTHER!
