Class Experience
**NOTE: If you are interested in private lessons, please request a time. I do not schedule classes unless it is specifically requested!** In this ongoing course, students will have the opportunity to learn guitar, no matter what level they are currently at! We will begin by addressing prior knowledge (if any), and determine where to begin. Each student that signs up for this course will work one-on-one with me. We will work together and create their own individual learning plan. We will tentatively follow this schedule (skipping/reviewing anything the student already knows): 1. Learn different parts of a guitar 2. Learn different tools used with a guitar 3. How to tune a guitar 4. Finger placements for Em and am chords with down strum 5. Finger placements for D and A 6. Work on different chord progressions with 4 chords learned 7. Work on up/down strum patterns 8. Finger placements for G and Cadd9 9. Learn to read tabs 10. Learn student song suggestions 11. Additional chords
Learning Goals
Students will begin to learn basic concepts and chords on the guitar.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello Outschool Community!
My name is Sarah Trommer and I am 27 years old. I currently live in Houston, Texas with my husband and new son. Prior to that I lived in Florida and Louisiana as I am a military spouse and we have to move every couple of years!
On Outschool, I am excited to be able to offer classes all about music, songwriting, and guitar.
If you can't tell, I am a lover of all things music! I am self taught in guitar, ukulele, and piano and love making music through songwriting too. Music has always been such an important part of my life, as it has helped me have a way of expressing my thoughts and feelings. My hope in teaching with Outschool is that students will be able to have the same opportunity for expression that I was able to have growing up.
Although I have no educational background in teaching or music, it has not stopped me from sharing what I love with others. My style of teaching is not always traditional or by the book, but we always have fun and learn in fun and unique ways.
Over the last several years, I have given music lessons to a number of students and have loved every minute of it! I believe it is my job, as a teacher, to create a fun and safe environment for students. I will always strive to make my classroom fun, safe, and engaging for your students.
I look forward to meeting you all!
