I just started with a new student and we build a rod together, the student does everything, I just offer advice and then act as a fast forward button to keep things moving. This way the student does every aspect of the build him/herself and learns every technique. In the end the student leaves with a rod. My latest sudent told me he feels that the lessons are free as he gets a rod to fish. I know there are a few people that can learn to build on their own but I still believe that a class or a one on one format really accelerates the process. So if you are fence sitting or stuck as it relates to starting your first rod consider taking a class. There are plenty of great instructors across North America, let us know where you live and we will be happy to make some recommendations.

Failures are your teacher. Learn from them.
