How to Get the Most From Your Newsletter Lessons
The following tips will help you maximize the benefits of the free guitar lessons you receive in your weekly newsletter.
Your lessons will arrive in your mailbox on Tuesday mornings. You will probably want to start by making a folder to keep all of them in. The lessons will be numbered, so they will easy for you to reference. (*If you don’t begin taking the lessons from the first publication, don’t worry – as a subscriber, you can access the most recent 20 lessons in the newsletter archives.) It’s important to be able to refer to previous lessons, as there may be times when you might want to review concepts or exercises from earlier lessons or include them in something you are working on. Having them all in one folder on your computer makes them easy to find and puts you in possession of a lot of powerful information that you can refer to indefinitely.
Some of the suggestions and assignments in your newsletters will not even require a guitar – they will ask you to focus on specific mental work, listening or ear training. Most of the lessons, however, will include assignments that you will play on your guitar, so you might want to gather your guitar stuff – you know, things like tuner, capo, picks, metronome and, if possible, a simple way to record yourself. (You might have a phone that you can use for this. If you do, you can probably also take advantage of apps that are available for tuner, metronome and more.) You should also gather a list of songs you want to play. Because all of you who are receiving the lessons are at different levels and have individual musical preferences, we won’t be working on specific songs. I will, however, teach you things that you can apply to the music of your choice, so start thinking about what is the music of your choice, if you’re not already sure!
One more thing – if you haven’t already read “The Basics” on the site, check it out. Even if you are an experienced player, it won’t hurt to see what’s there: http://www.guitar-instruction-video.com/the_basics/
