I've always lived in a small town and it's a main reason I am self taught. Not a lot of instructors here either.
I wish I had GT when I first started out. I spend so many years trying to figure out some stuff that were often very basic. We have a great community and I'm sure you'll find lessons that will motivate and make you wanna learn more.
Don't be shy and ask us questions as you go. We'll be there :)
