In this 10 week online guitar class, beginner guitar students will have the luxury of learning the basics of playing the guitar from the comfort of their own homes with the convenience of a flexible class schedule without lacking any quality content or instruction. Students will learn: -Posture -Hand Position and Fingering -Basic Rhythms (quarter notes, half notes, quarter rests -Guitar Tablature -Key Names and the Music Alphabet -The Music Staff -Dynamics -Three String Chords -Musical Symbols Students will need to purchase "Alfred's Kid's Guitar Course 1." It can be found on several online retailers and in person at most local music stores. Students will also need a suitable size guitar - please message me for more details and suggestions for the right guitar for your learner! Although we do not meet live, this FLEX course promotes active student engagement through guided video walkthroughs of each unit, recordings, and worksheets. Students will upload their completed worksheets for a comprehension check, and will also be able to "perform" each week by sharing a video or recording of themselves playing the practice songs for that week showing their progress! By the end of this course, students will be able to masterfully play many songs on the guitar and will be ready to advance in their guitar music education. This is a fantastic and affordable way to start learning the guitar and spark the creativity in each student's mind. Learning a musical instrument is a skill no person ever regrets learning as a child - it is a fantastic way to introduce your child to music! Music ignites all areas of the brain and promotes positive growth in all areas of adolescent development!

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Education from Toccoa Falls College
Hello! My name is Rebecca Weber and I am so excited to meet you in the classroom! I have a degree in Music Education from Toccoa Falls College. I graduated at the top of my music class and specialize in piano and voice! While in high school and college, I participated in several musical ensembles including chorus, Varsity singers, piano accompaniment, concert band, jazz band, handbell choir, women's ensemble, and musical theater!
I have been tutoring and teaching private music lessons since 2008, and started my first full time high school music position in 2012. Teaching music just gets better the older I get. I absolutely love what I do! I love watching students grow in their musicianship and the pride and joy they feel from creating something absolutely beautiful. I have experience with all ages from 3-18, and have taught one on one, large groups of more than 100, regular classroom size of about 20-30, and small groups of 5-10.
In 2018, I also started teaching ESL online with VIPKid. I received a specialized VIPKid ESL certification and have worked with zero English beginners all the way to advanced grammar level students! I have learned to love this just as much as teaching music because watching my students make huge strides in their ability to communicate and understand a brand new language has been so rewarding! I have been with students who spoke no English and now engage in free talk conversations about any and everything! What an amazing journey!
I look forward to sharing these skills with new students on Outschool. I have grown to truly appreciate online education and the flexibility it offers both students and teachers. Through Outschool, I will be offering a wide range of music lessons for all ages and levels including music theory, ear training, music history, performance skills, rhythm and pitch, and more! I believe music is a necessary skill to have as it improves cognitive ability in every other area of our lives including social/emotional skills, motor skills, creative skills, and intellectual abilities. Also, I will be offering English and ESL classes for students learning to read and write. Learning a second language can be intimidating, but I have wonderful success with students who have grown to love their English lessons with me!
Outside of the classroom, you'll find me with my family! I have three kids and together we love playing board games, playing fetch with our dogs, baking cookies, watching Disney movies, and taking road trips :)
Thank you so much for the opportunity to teach your child! I look forward to meeting you in the classroom!Reviews
