Beginner training plan
Your first lessonStudents should be ready to engage in the process of learning open major chords. This includes understanding the finger positioning, identifying the root notes for each chord, and practicing the transitions between different major chords. Additionally, students should familiarize themselves with the sound of each chord and how they fit into various musical contexts. Regular practice sessions will help reinforce their understanding and mastery of these foundational chords.
Lesson 11+At this point in the learning process, the student should have developed a solid foundation and feel at ease with transitioning between chords. With this competency established, we will now shift our focus to exploring various systems for understanding and navigating the guitar fretboard more effectively. One of the key frameworks we will delve into is the CAGED system, which helps in visualizing chord shapes and their relationships across the neck. Additionally, we will examine different scales in both major and minor positions, allowing the student to expand their improvisational skills and musical expression. This comprehensive approach will not only enhance their technical abilities but also deepen their understanding of music theory as it applies to guitar playing.
Lesson 4-10From lessons 4 to 10, students will delve into the world of both major and minor chords, focusing on open and barre chord techniques. This foundational learning will pave the way for incorporating a variety of songs, allowing students to practice and internalize specific chord progressions. Through this approach, they will not only develop their skills but also become more comfortable playing music they enjoy.
Lesson 2-3It is essential for the students to come ready to learn the technique of playing barre chords. This involves mastering the ability to use one finger to press down multiple strings across the guitar fretboard, allowing them to play a variety of chords in different positions. As they practice, they should focus on developing finger strength and proper hand positioning to achieve clean sound and smooth transitions between chords. Consistent practice and patience will be key to their success in incorporating barre chords into their playing repertoire.
