Fun to learn
First steps, great explanations.
Challenging for sure!
I learned a great deal with this course. Lots of reviewing will be needed. Lots of practice.
Fun, challenging and very helpful
I liked doing it but it took me a while to master it.
Seeing progress
This was a great course. I could see my progress from the one before and so that in itself is encouraging and has given me the determination to keep going . Practice , practice, practice! I once read that you don’t practice so that you can get it right, you practice so you can’t get it wrong 😇
Pushing forward
The different minor scales finally start to make some sense to the chords. That was really useful. I found Jonny Darko a little challenging to get to a reasonable tempo. Not quite there yet but close and will keep going until it is there. Time to move on, ….. a really good course on Am 👌
