A few years back i try to learn how to play guitar but gave up after about a month. I’m now 16 and trying again. I have been learning with the Justin guitar website for a bit more then a month now quite consistently and i honestly often find myself picking up my guitar instead of my phone when bored. I might only know a few songs but i still enjoy playing.
My main goal is just to get good (and confident) enough so that in the future i can play along with my best friend (she plays drums).
That’s all i really have as an introduction. Sorry if there were spelling/grammar mistakes english is not my first language.
I hope everybody who reads this has a nice day/evening:)))))))
Hey hey Zita, nice having you here, welcome to the best guitar community. Keep practicing and having fun playing songs you like and let us hear from you.
Greetings from Germany

I hope you can keep it fun and never stop anymore.
For me, the guitar and music is wonderful - and it’s fun in good and a fríend and relief in bad days.
In any case, you already found a great teacher!
Hi Zita and welcome. You are at a great age to learn how to play the guitar. I’m happy to hear you pick up the guitar instead of your phone when you are bored. Your goal to play with your friend should prove great motivation. Have fun with your journey.
I myself started at the age of 16, unfortunately I didn’t have the knowledge or anything like Justin in my life and because of the wrong technique and other things I always practiced with a lot of pain, so I barely played (only on sundays ) and quickly stopped… now a little… cough… older and it’s going great… your restart now at 16 will be much better and then with the guitar for a lifetime, wow
Hello Zita.
It’s great to have new, younger students join us. Those are great goals - to play and make music with friends. Good luck on your way.
