Fun
Great course, adding and improving knowledge and new skills. Great little tunes to add fun to the lessons.
Excellent
Repetitive and thorough helps reinforce the facts
Great course with exciting short songs to learn
I took this course to learn more about the 7th chords. I am probably more beginner/intermediate so it was a little hard for me to get the songs down but they are really fun. I learned so much about 7th chords. It was an informative course for me.
Great Overview of Dominant 7th Chords
Jonny makes it easier to internalize some of the theory behind dominant 7th chords in this lesson. I like the way he organized the chords into groupings with original songs written using the most useful chord progressions. Now I need to master the content!
More practice
My hands feel so tense 😬 I guess I need more practice
