Snehasis taught Lipika about power chords, riffing techniques, and a chord progression for the song "21 Guns." Lipika practiced playing power chords, adjusting amp settings, and playing along with a drum track. Homework includes practicing the A, G, F, E power chord progression with different rhythms and the D minor, B flat, F, C chord progression for "21 Guns."

During a guitar lesson, Snehasis guided Leon through improvisational exercises, concentrating on triads, arpeggios, and melodic approaches within the A major key. Leon honed his dexterity and speed on the instrument by practicing alternate picking, hammer-ons, and pull-offs. The lesson also included a discussion about the Dunning-Kruger effect and its relevance to the learning process.

During their recent music lesson, Snehasis guided Leon through improvisational exercises. The focus was on utilizing specific notes and chord tones, like C# over A, and concluding phrases on the third or fifth. Leon actively practiced bending techniques and delved into the A major arpeggio as a foundational element for his improvisation. The city where this lesson took place was not specified.

Snehasis guided an individual from Piedmont Avenue in a guitar lesson, focusing on ending musical phrases on a C sharp note and pre-planning approaches to reach that note effectively. They explored different techniques to make the C sharp resolution sound better and discussed incorporating longer, sustained melodies into their playing.

During their guitar lesson, Snehasis guided Sriram through a variety of exercises. The focus included mastering chord progressions from 'Autumn Leaves,' understanding the E minor 7th, and practicing arpeggios from 'Hotel California.' They also explored the 12-bar blues progression in E, covering shuffle patterns, riffs, and discussing different blues styles. Sriram received encouragement to practice finger exercises.

During a recent guitar lesson, an instructor worked with a student from Mesa Community College on guitar improvisation, focusing on note targeting within chord progressions. The learner practiced ending solos on specific notes (C# and E) within the A major chord to create different harmonic effects and explored the theoretical underpinnings of these choices, including secondary dominance and 5-1 resolutions. They plan to continue practicing these concepts to improve improvisational skills.
