Hi Lauren, just signed up for free course. I am 66, had spent a year & 1/2 w/ another on line teacher. This summer I cut 3 fingers on my left hand in my tablesaw. lost the bone tips but not the fingertips. Have started back w/ the help of your videos. Thanks, lots of hard work ahead.

Lauren, you’re awesome! So glad a friend, who is a phenomenal guitarist and teacher, told me about you. I’m 64 and have tried to learn guitar many times but have always given up. I play trumpet fairly well so I know music, there’s that at least. You inspire me to keep working at guitar. Right now, my fretting fingers are killing me, but I’ll get back at it. Thanks for sharing all that you have to offer.

Lauren, I want to thank you for your outstanding tutoring skills. Let me explain, I bought an acoustic in July 2011 in a Walmart or Target while on my honeymoon in Buffalo NY and I've taken a few classes from two different instructors and I couldn't make heads or tails of anything. I got tired of watching KZbinrs and I was so happy when I came across your channel, because now in 2020, because of you I'm a 5 on a (1-10) scale.

You make it easy to gain small successes by giving us simpler chord patterns that could substitute more complicated chords. Thank you. P.S. And you have a nice voice also.

Great Song Lauren, I do it in G to suit my vocals. One more thing is the F # minor chord, I Find it much easier to bar the first 3 strings on the 2nd Fret especially if I'm playing a song in the key of D, i.e. WITHOUT YOU by a band who wrote it, BADFINGER, They had very bad luck, I'm from the same town as they were, & as I said in D key F# minor is right next to it, its simple. Harry Neilson had a big, big hit with the same song. Thanks again Lauren, Keep up your GREAT WORK, GOD BLESS.
