Guitar Workshops for Women

 Sometimes I think it would be a nice idea to learn to play the guitar.  Occasionally, I've even got as far as buying a cheap guitar from a charity shop and having a go - but I've never got very far, and the guitar has always been given away again.

Having said that, the workshops at Racquety Farm look interesting.

Tomorrow, Saturday 17th January, there will be two workshops for women who are learning to play guitar.  In the morning, starting at 10am, there's a half day workshop for beginners, and the afternoon session, starting at 1.30pm, is for improvers.

It's a pretty unhealthy notion, unless the woman has been in an abusive situation.

Why unhealthy? In a mixed group of learners, it's very common for the men to take up a lot more of the teacher's time.

Absolute rubbish... & I speak as a woman!

"In general, teachers interact with boys more often than with girls by a margin of 10 to 30 percent, depending on the grade level of the students and the personality of the teacher." From Lumen Learning Educational Psychology website. This is for children, but I'm pretty sure there have also been studies done with adults.
