Learning guitar on DVD can be a great way to supplement your private guitar lessons with a real tutor. It comes with a number of advantages including the fact that you can learn at your own pace and replay the instruction as many times as you wish.

The only word of advice I would give is that you have be motivated to really want to learn through this medium. Even though you can see and hear the instruction on screen you are still essentially teaching yourself. Some people are better at doing this than others.

As you progress into guitar youre going to find that you encounter your own unique problems with the instrument. A big difference between a real tutor and a guitar instruction DVD is that a tutor can identify and concentrate on these problems, a DVD cannot.
