Beginner training plan
Your first lessonEvaluate the student’s current proficiency in music, musicianship, and guitar playing. Provide instruction on proper technique and demonstrate its application to enhance the student’s learning experience. My teaching approach involves introducing three or four chords and teaching an accessible song along with a simple strumming pattern.
Lesson 11+At this point the student will see dramatic improvement and will present more difficult songs, riffs and we work through them using the foundation we have built.
Lesson 4-10We continue to develop musicianship and fundamental understanding from the preceding lessons. As their playing and dexterity improve, I progressively delve deeper, introducing more intricate rhythms, patterns, chords, and scales.
Lesson 2-3We lock in basic musicianship in concept and practice. I begin to explain rhythms, scales and their application on songs they have selected and love .We develop their technique, dexterity, and establish the groundwork for them to learn more
Advanced training plan
Your first lessonEvaluate the student’s current proficiency in music, musicianship, and guitar playing. Provide instruction on proper technique and demonstrate its application to enhance the student’s learning experience. We set goals with songs to work through, and I begin to explain my technique more deeply.
Lesson 11+We work on advanced concepts and popular techniques such as sweep picking, two-hand tapping, arpeggios, diminished scales, and the modes of the harmonic and melodic minor scale, including the altered dominant scale.
Lesson 4-10We begin to work on advanced rhythms and harmonic and melodic minor scales, and how to harmonize these scales as we did the major scale. We begin to work on more complicated solos and how to execute them to sound like their heroes.
Lesson 2-3We lock in the concepts from our first lesson and see their technique and musicianship in general improve. We work through their songs and begin to work on improvisation and soloing in a comprehensive and practical way.
What you need to bringBring your guitar tuned, guitar picks, and a manuscript notebook and a pen.
