Beginner training plan
Your first lessonIntroduction + Basics: Understanding my students goals as a guitarist, guitar anatomy and terminology, basic technique, basic chords, strumming and rhythm basics.
I’ll have the student choose a song they want to learn and center each lesson along that. This will help us breakdown everything needed to play that song well
Lesson 11+Customization + Master: Student driven focus (songwriting, soloing, advanced techniques or genre specific playing), advanced techniques, recording and performing.
Lesson 4-10Expanding Skills: Different chord tones and transitions, strumming and dynamics, playing full songs, basic theory
Lesson 2-3Coordination + Rhythm: Chords and changes, strumming patterns, intro into reading music
What you need to bringIdeally students will have an electric or acoustic guitar, a capo, picks, cables, and an amp. Amps aren’t necessary for acoustic guitar learning
What I can bringI prefer students have their own equipment as consistent gear to learn on is important for your growth. However, I’m willing to provide what I can if a student doesn’t have access to a guitar at home.
