Hi Lizzie
stick to the lessons take your time in the early stages and learn the basics it will be worth it in the end there`s a lot to learn any problems just ask the community
I hope you have a wonderful time learning how to play guitar!!! So cool for you to be starting so young… I always offer a bit of advice to people just starting out…
get a stand or a wall hanger so that your guitar is handy & not in a case in the closet. That way, when you have a few minutes or so, you can spend the time playing & not getting it out & then putting it away!
Welcome Lizzie. It’s great that you’ve discovered Justin’s structured course when you’re still young and able to soak up knowledge and skills like a sponge! At your age you should be able to get through the beginner grades pretty quickly even though it’s important to remember two important maxims: first is “it’s a marathon not a race” (in other words haste is counter-productive) and secondly, just as important, “practice makes permanent” (in other words, start as slow as needed to make sure you can play the chord, progression, melody, technique, or whatever, perfectly , before speeding up)
Hello Lizzie.
It’s great to have you here.
