Class Experience
In this class, younger students will have a chance to learn the basics of guitar. The class will cover treble clef note reading on the first 3 strings of the guitar along with easier forms of guitar chords that will get students started playing! This class does not meet live, but students will receive a class video at the beginning of each week. In addition to viewing the video, students will be given a weekly question relating to guitar.

Students will learn how to play the notes on the first 3 strings of the guitar. They will learn modified and/or full forms of the chords C, G, and D. By the end of the course, students will have learned 3 songs, "Spanish Theme," "Ode to Joy," and "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star."
I have over 15 years experience teaching piano and guitar lessons to students ages 5 to adult. Additionally, I am certified in special education and have experience working with students with disabilities.
In order to get the most rewarding experience from the class, learners are expected to practice about 20 minutes a day throughout the duration of the 4 weeks.
Acoustic guitar (size appropriate for student) Guitar tuner or tuner app (it is much appreciated if students/parents tune the guitar before each class meeting. I can provide help with this if needed!) Guitar pick(s) Hal Leonard Guitar Method Book 1 Optional: Guitar strap, extra strings
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Although this is a FLEX class with no live meetings, students are encouraged to reach out with any questions or even share videos of themselves playing directly to me, the instructor for feedback throughout the class!
No live meetings, and an estimated 1 - 2 hours per week outside of class.
