Beginner Level
We will apply the skills of deliberate practice on the guitar by playing games that uniquely and creatively allow learners to interact and practice their skills. A review of chords, reading chord charts, performing short melodies, ear training, strumming patterns, error detection and identification. Games can help learners self identify practice goals and areas to concentrate as well as identify success points. Using success points learners can pick out music that most appropriately fits their skill level thus moving from novice to intermediate skill achievement. This class is a supplemental class to the rest of the Guitar Shreds learning series.
