Lesson Proper

Over 1,200 students from 20+ countries have already joined the Alba GB Classical Guitar Academy. Here’s what they say.

What Students Say:

“Finally, a beginner classical guitar course online that delivers real progress.”

“I’ve tried YouTube, but this is the first time I followed a course and saw results. I now play every day.”

Marcus, UK

“Clear, calm, and perfectly paced lessons.”

“The explanations are so clear and well-paced. I didn’t think I’d enjoy classical guitar so much, but now I’m learning real music.”

Ana, Spain

“Learning guitar became a family project.”

“My teenage son and I are learning together. The duet lessons made it a fun project for both of us.”

Lena, Germany

“Better posture, better sound, better playing.”

“The way posture and hand control are explained is excellent. After two weeks I was already playing melodies I recognised.”

Jon, USA

“Teaching my son helped me rediscover my own playing.”

“I’m a dad who’s been playing guitar for years, but I never learned to read music—just used tabs and played in bands. This course helped me teach my son guitar while also filling the gaps in my own learning. I finally understand the basics and feel like I’m progressing again.”

“A breath of fresh air for teachers.”

“As a classical guitar teacher, this course is a breath of fresh air. The gradual increase in difficulty helps my students build confidence without getting stuck. The duet pieces are especially powerful—students feel like real musicians from early on. Plus, the mobile app makes it easy to project lessons on a big screen for small group sessions.”

“It’s never too late to start playing guitar.”

“I’m retired and never thought I’d learn to play guitar at this stage of life. But a friend who plays guitar used this course to start a group, and now we’re all learning together. The duets and pieces are fun and achievable, and I’m finally living a lifelong dream.”

“Learning guitar became our way to connect.”

“My teenage granddaughter wanted to learn guitar, so we started using this course together on weekends. It’s become our way of bonding, and she’s already playing her favourite songs. None of this would’ve happened without the clear foundation the course provides.”

“Finally understanding the music I’ve played for years.”

“I first learned to play Oasis and Beatles songs with chords and tabs, but I hit a wall. I couldn’t read music, and every theory book I tried was confusing. This course changed everything. I finally understand how music works—and now I’m even playing duets with my partner.”

“I never thought I’d start learning guitar in my seventies.”

“I never thought I’d start learning guitar in my seventies.” “I always loved classical music but never imagined I’d be able to play it myself. I picked up this course after retiring, and it’s been one of the best things I’ve done. The videos are clear, the pace is gentle, and the pieces are beautiful. I practise a little every day, and even my friends are amazed by how much I’ve improved. It’s proof that it’s never too late to start.”

“I use this course alongside my private teacher, and it fits perfectly.”

“My teacher recommended I find a structured system for home study, and this course turned out to be exactly what I needed. The lessons match what we cover in class, and the PDF materials make it easy to prepare before every session. I can rewatch the videos when I forget something, which means my lessons are more productive. My progress has been faster than ever.”

“I’ve always dreamed of becoming a classical guitarist, but I didn’t know where to begin.”

“I had no musical background at all—never played an instrument before. This course made it possible. The explanations are simple but never feel childish. Each piece builds on the previous one, and I can feel my confidence growing every week. Now I’m playing real classical pieces and planning to keep going until I can perform. It’s been life-changing.”

“Having the full course on my phone has been a game-changer.”

“I can open the app, stream the lessons, and even mirror them to a smartboard or projector during class. It’s incredibly convenient for last-minute prep or reviewing a piece with a student on the spot. I’ve used it in 1-to-1 lessons and small group settings, and it’s great not having to carry anything extra—just my phone.”

“The duets are my favourite part—and my students agree.”

“Every student I’ve introduced to the teacher-student duet pieces gets instantly more motivated. Some of them even try to play my part just to challenge themselves. It gives them something to aim for and makes the lesson feel more like real music-making than just exercises. It’s a brilliant way to inspire them early on.”

“It’s the first method I’ve actually recommended to other teachers.”

“I’ve shared this course with colleagues because it’s not just video—it comes with a printed book that aligns perfectly with each lesson. Students who struggle with visuals or memory can follow the book, then reinforce everything by watching the videos again at home. The combination of scores, guided practice, and built-in ear training is rare in beginner resources. It gives students a real musical foundation—not just finger patterns.”

“From playing rock and pop songs to understanding real music.”

“I first learned to play Oasis and Beatles songs with chords and tabs, but I hit a wall. I couldn’t read music, and every theory book I tried was confusing. This course changed everything. I finally understand how music works—and now I’m even playing duets with my partner, reading music from my stand.”
