Guess this for folk who started after the courses were all amalgamated into the Grade system. So I would need multiple choice. Courses I was working on post old BC and IM now run across Grades 4 to 7. I have just gone back over the new Grade 1 and 2 again and now working through Grade 3 (again) as it incomplete at my last visit. So I cannot allocate a particular Level, which is why I always say Advanced Beginner if I am ever asked. One size does not fit all and I suspect other āold timersā will understand where I am coming from.
I donāt think anyone really fits inside a single category. I answered by what grade I am actively in. I certainly have elements of all previous grades that are not in very good shape let alone mastered. (moving barre chords cleanly - coughā¦)
Exactly. I am active in Grades 3 to 7, hence my inability to answer. As I said this only fits if you started at ground zero when the courses were rewritten.
It could be quite an interesting poll if everyone fills it outā¦ suppose +50% is an advanced player of all community members (extreme example of courseā¦but?) then Justin could do a lot of more advanced lessonsā¦
But the poll is also in ājust chattingā and well Rachel wants to know so I tell her
Interesting poll. I always wonder if grades 6 and 7 are accessible to everyone. Or if itās for people looking to study in music school/become professional and practice 4 hours/Day.
Nooooo, it is just where you end up if you keep putting one foot in front of the other, with no expectations bar learning to play the guitar. Simples, one day at a time.
THIS is the kind of information that the JG team has and hopefully will be using to look at the set up of a sustainable clubs system. Great thread Rachel!!
The one thing that would be interesting to know is how many people attend the clubs that just follow the lessons via the app or youtu.be and not familiar with the website content, donations etc.
Yeah, I did the beginner and intermediate courses before they were re-structured, so I have no concept of the āgrades.ā Ergo, I canāt help you with the survey.
