Advice from a frustrated student

Ask questions and then put the guitar down.
Man, I’m so frustrated. I’ve been trying to find a teacher for so long and it’s always the same things.
One question and then the teacher is ripping the neck for 20 minutes.
Then there was my old teacher that would set me homework and never asked me about it in the lesson.
Then there was my other teacher who would have me show him something, would give me a 15 minute talk and then not ask me to do it again.
- What are you hoping to get out of the time together today?
- Is there anything you’ve been working on you’d like to show me?
- Are you enjoying our time together and would you make any changes?
