Abstract: The guitar is a highly versatile instrument and is commonly taught in diverse educational settings, such as private lessons, social projects, churches and advanced courses. The present study aims to offer pedagogical strategies that guitar teachers can use to enhance their instructional practices. Data were collected through a questionnaire answered by guitar teachers comprising 15 items addressing the methodologies employed in classes, difficulties encountered, and important features of teachers and students for effective learning. The findings show numerous types of strategies used during their classes which can facilitate the instrument learning process. Additionally, the teachers’ responses showed the primary challenges encountered in their pedagogical practices and discussed strategies to overcome it. In summary, using effective teaching strategies can provide a significant impact on both teaching and learning outcomes.
