Guitar lessons tailored to the needs of each student, designed to help you progress and reach your goals as a guitarist and musician.

Benjamin guided a student through identifying chords in "How High the Moon" using shell voicings and explored the relationship between chord shapes and root notes on the guitar. They also discussed major scales, whole and half steps, and how to construct scales in different keys. Benjamin assigned practice exercises to improve the learner's fluency in finding root notes and chord shapes on the fretboard, which will be particularly useful for this aspiring musician residing in Trafalgar.

Benjamin and Jules focused their guitar lesson on techniques like chord transitions, finger placement for the A7 sus4, and strumming patterns for a song intro. They tackled specific fingering challenges and used exercises to boost dexterity. Benjamin assigned practicing the scale and its root notes, with plans to introduce improvisational concepts in their next lesson.

Benjamin and Jules dedicated their guitar lesson to refining techniques, specifically focusing on relaxing the arm during scales and improving strumming patterns for songs like "Wagon Wheel." Jules actively practiced scales with an emphasis on relaxed movements and explored various strumming variations, including the addition of bass notes. For continued practice, Benjamin assigned specific strumming patterns and a baseline exercise for a Pink Floyd song, and they scheduled their next lesson for the upcoming week.

Benjamin and Audrey delved into jazz chord theory, specifically exploring extended and altered chords like 9th and 7th chords. Audrey honed her skills by practicing voicings and gaining insights into chord construction, alterations, and the intricate relationships between different chord types in their musical exploration. Benjamin tasked Audrey with finding chords in new songs and improving her fretboard note identification, with plans to cover keys in their upcoming lesson.

Benjamin and Jules dedicated their lesson to improving Benjamin's guitar playing, specifically focusing on scales and lead techniques. They worked on breaking down scales into smaller segments to enhance finger accuracy and fluidity, and explored various strategies for visualizing scale patterns. Jules's homework involves practicing the techniques covered and preparing a strumming song for critique in their upcoming lesson.

Benjamin and Audrey's recent jazz guitar lesson focused on the fundamentals of chord construction and voicings. Audrey dedicated her practice to playing 'Autumn Leaves' and gained proficiency in major 7th, dominant 7th, minor 7th, and diminished 7th chords, exploring both shell voicings and full chord shapes. For her ongoing practice, Benjamin assigned Audrey the task of smoothly transitioning between these different chord types and exploring how to find chord shapes in various positions on the guitar neck.
