i’ve been playing for a short while now but i’m wanting to take it more seriously. i believe that the structure of lessons would help me a great deal, but i’m unsure of where to start. remote lessons would be fine, but if anyone is/knows someone in the fort wayne indiana area that could give me lessons, i would appreciate any leads. if not, give me some recommendations for someone who could give me remote lessons.

many thanks,
carter

John McClung in Washington does Skype and maybe Zoom lessons. I've known John since the 1970's, and he is a great player, and has a great reputation as a teacher.

Then, there are the online courses from Paul Franklin and Travis Toy.

All these players are forum members.

I am currently signed up for the full Paul Franklin Method. I started out with his introductory class, then the tool box class and finally went for the full Method. For me, this has been an outstanding class. As I work through the course material, I can take as much or as little time in each session as I need. I find that as I progress, many times I return to previous lessons to actually learn what I thought I knew until a later lesson makes it clear that more time was needed on previous material.
You can stop the lesson and practice a part or technique, back it up to listen again, and you can slow down the video when you really want a close look at what he is doing. Additionally, there is a private Facebook group that you can (and should) join where you can ask Paul directly for advice/help on specific areas. At 70+, I had refused to set up a Facebook account, but I finally did for this course. I highly recommend this course.
