Looks good thanks for the post. I never realised you could get online lessons.

Oh yeah, there are tons of resources available on-line, many of them won't cost you a penny.

Yes I cannot see why anyone should pay for online lessons. You can either teach yourself using online resources or you need a proper tutor that can identify bad techniques before they become difficult to change!

The cost per ten week course on this site is around the same as a term (10 weeks) with a teacher, based on average rates here - and the choice of styles and levels is very limited...also, while backing tracks are good, a real live person is far better.
Most music teachers find that around 50% of students who book in for lessons have already tried to teach themselves from CD, DVDs or from online sources. It works fine for a minority, but something as simple as a bowed neck, over-heavy string guage or a poor beat sense or ear can defeat the purpose.
And most full-time teachers provide phone and email support now, as well.
