The session focused on guitar technique, starting with finger dexterity exercises. Student and Tutor then began learning a new song, "A Car Wash and a New Pair of Pants," analyzing its tuning and capo placement. The Student received a tutorial link to practice the song before their next meeting.

The Student and Tutor focused on guitar technique, practicing finger exercises at varying tempos and an A major scale while connecting it to its corresponding bar chord. They also worked on a song incorporating power chords and the B7 chord, emphasizing clean chord transitions and accurate strumming. Homework involves practicing specific chord changes and muting techniques.

The Student and Tutor reviewed the CAGED system applied to minor chords and practiced finger exercises to improve technique and endurance. They explored arpeggio and triad shapes, applying them diatonically in various keys. The session concluded with an analysis of a song's intro licks and chords, with the Student assigned to continue practicing the new exercises and further analyze the song's harmonic structure.

The Student and Tutor practiced various guitar finger exercises, including 1-2-3-4 patterns at increasing metronome speeds, a linear exercise on thicker strings, and a new 4-3-2-1 pinky exercise. They also focused on fretboard navigation by memorizing dot frets, reviewed E minor and A major chords, and worked on the song "Smoke on the Water" at 90 BPM. Homework was assigned to continue these exercises, practice the song at 90 BPM aiming for 100 BPM, and explore portable finger exercisers for travel.

After an initial period of audio troubleshooting, the Student and Tutor worked on guitar techniques. They practiced linear tapping exercises with a metronome, finding that a faster tempo unexpectedly helped the Student rely on muscle memory. They also reviewed E minor, C, G, and D chords, focusing on transition fluidity. For homework, the Student was assigned to practice chord changes in pairs and to vary the strings used for linear tapping, emphasizing slow, deliberate movements for muscle memory development.

The Student and Tutor worked on advanced guitar finger exercises, progressing through various tempos and introducing a new reverse finger pattern. They reviewed core chords and applied them to a song, focusing on rhythm and smooth chord transitions. Homework was assigned to continue practicing the new and established finger exercises, as well as specific chord changes for the song.
