Guitar concept taught by Ruby

The guitar lesson continued to build on fundamental techniques, with a focus on hammer-ons, pull-offs, and their application to the Arctic Monkeys tab. One of the learners, a student at the University of the Pacific in Stockton, diligently practiced sight reading and worked on finger placement and transitions to improve accuracy and speed. The other provided valuable feedback and guidance on technique, fostering confidence in their playing.

Ruby Davies led a guitar lesson where a student from Lincoln Park High School focused on chord practice (C, D, Em, G, Am), reading guitar tabs, and learning techniques like hammer-ons, pull-offs, and slides. The learner practiced these techniques and chord transitions. They scheduled the next lesson for Wednesday at 3 PM due to Ruby's travel, and planned a lesson for the following Monday at 5:30 PM.

Ruby Davies recently conducted a guitar lesson with Keshon Mclean, focusing on foundational skills. Keshon learned basic guitar chords including E minor, C, G, and D, alongside various strumming techniques. He then put these new skills into practice by working on chord transitions and successfully applying them to play "Zombie." Looking ahead, Ruby will provide Keshon with chord charts and prepare tabs for "Ocean Eyes" for their upcoming lesson, which is also set to cover more comprehensive music notation.
