Hi Nicole
Yes, I’ve realized that SOS2 and SOS3 have a different focus. I’ll probably go back and forth between SOS3 and SOS2 in order not to miss anything important

Bruce here, from the northeast corner of the USofA, Maine, that is.
Serioso newb here. Started guitar/musical journey in August 2024, a month after closing my work email for the last time.
Now there’s more time for tackling those time intensive life bucket list items.
I’m near the end of module 2 of Grade 1 (using the App), and found that while I can
- get OK “scores” (40-60/minute) on the one minute chord changes
- I can consistently strum on the first beat,
- I can get my fingers on the chord (mostly) without looking
- When putting it all together, my brain goes haywire when I try to add “old faithful”, or really any strumming pattern, to the mix and my fingers go all over the place, then I get flustered, and I don’t even know where my hand is on the fretboard.
- It’s almost like my brain cannot process the information that the left fingers are sending
My thinking is that maybe, just maybe, if I can get the heel tapping and the strumming more on autopilot, then that’ll free up come cognitive ability to process input from the left hand.
Simultaneously, as @Richard_close2u says, just play more songs.
So, I drop the App play along speed way down, and that helps mightily too.
Cheers–>see you in the message boards
