Hello - Ben from Oxford

Hi Ben, welcome to the community forum. I had several tries to finish the beginner course and progress to intermediate. I have found the new grade 3 (beginner+ or advancing beginner level) is a great place to learn to transition to grade 4 and intermediate level. I quickly went through grades 1 and 2 again, but have spent over a year in grade 3, which gives you time to review and consolidate all your grade 1 and 2 skills by learning songs. The most important thing I have learned as I am just finishing grade 3 is how to learn and how to organize my practice. I wish you a lot of success as you make good progress in mastering the beginning grades and transitioning to intermediate guitar lessons.
