QuestionI am taking guitar lessons from a next-door neighbor who is a guitar teacher. I have trouble seeing, as I've been blind all my life. How can I deal with any frustration that I might experience?Jelke de JongCommunity AnswerAs far as sheet music goes, there is sheet music in Braille, I think. As far as playing would go, or seeing what your guitar teacher is doing with his/her hands, the only advice I could give you is make sure he/she knows about it, and you can work out solutions where your hands are moved by your teacher to teach you the various positioning, movement, etc.
