Set goals with the teacher and tell him or her what you want to accomplish. Self taught will frustrate you and you may get some bad habits that will be harder to correct once you start playing more, unless of course you are a super genius. Make it fun and treat it like art.

I wanted to learn how but didn't want to practice. Now I am older and I tried and it's hard cause my fingers don't want to move to the cords. But I am self teaching. I think as long as you practice daily it's not that hard but you probably have to have the talent in the first place- I don't When I was young my parents got me a guitar teacher.

If all you really want to do is learn a few chords so that you can play some simple song accompaniments, you could probably do that in about 6 months or so, with daily practice. OTOH, if you actually want to get really good and be able to play anything you hear, read sheet music and play well with other people, you can expect it to take years, with lessons and daily practice.

I really, really wanted to get good at guitar, and practiced for 2-4 hours a day. My friend taught himself, and in about 6 months, he could play Horse With No Name. He didn't really care... It really all depends on the person, and how motivated they are. After awhile of playing though, it definitely evens out, and gives way to things like theory and originality.
