Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this guitar class:

Absolute and Total Beginners start here!

Starting from zero, learn basic chords like D, G, Em, C, D7, Am, C, A and E, with super broken down step-by-step explanations of chord diagrams, strings and fingers--and real songs by artists like John Legend, Sublime, Taylor Swift, Coldplay and more.

Yes, you really can and will learn to play guitar in this class!

Here's how it works:

  1. Attend class weekly. In every class you'll connect with your classmates, practice new skills step by step, and learn a new and fun song. Guitars are provided in NYC! (Need to miss a session? No problem--make it up with another group session for free or a discounted private lesson.)
  2. Practice is easy with comprehensive video tutorials.
  3. Graduate. Your teacher will let you know when you're ready to move to Level 2.

Most absolute beginner students feel ready for the next level after 6-8 sessions. But faster or slower is OK! You do you!

Question from Miriam P.
Being that the virus is overtaking the whole being close to one another how are you going to have an instructor help with finger placement in correct finger placement and schedule etc.? Also the price of the class is the same price as it would be if you were in person or did the price go down because it’s going to be a virtual class? I would like to know if you’re offering discounts due to the fact you’re not gonna be in person
Answer from Brenda L. CourseHorse StaffCourseHorse Staff
Hi, Miriam. The pricing hasn't changed. The teachers are great at breaking things down and have smoothly transitioned to teaching online. Although the classes are happening virtually, they are still able to provide individual attention to students. Hope this helps!
