Kids Guitar Lessons: How To Use Both Programs

There are so many wonderful benefits for both Kids and Adults when they learn a musical instrument! It even helps in developing their brains. Grade can improve and it can even helps their self-esteem. God created music and it can be used as a wonderful tool to bring Him praise!

We have 2 courses for little kids, ages 5 – 9. They are Kids Guitar Lessons and Worship Guitar Class for Kids. The original course was Kids Guitar Lessons. I was told by a worship Pastor that it moved a little too fast for his class of 7 years. We made a new course, ‘Jean Welles Worship Guitar Class for Kids’, and were going to retire the first one, but several parents told us that their kids loved playing the songs.

Both courses are available, and there is an option to purchase them together. The only song in common is ‘This Little Light Of Mine.’ Here is how I’d suggest using them together.

Good Guitars For Students

December 14, 2010 By jeanw Leave a Comment

We just stopped carrying guitar. The instruments we had were excellent in the beginning, but in the last batch a couple of them buzzed. I’m concerned that the quality may be going down and they are not easy to ship. Some of you have asked what guitars are best to start with and I’ve found some that I believe you would be happy with. Most are made by Yamaha and I’ve always liked Yamaha guitars. You can see a list of the guitar at Guitars for Students.

Here are some guitars that I recommend:
Good – Yamaha C40 Classical Guitar Package
Better – Yamaha CG111S Classical Guitar
For those who want Acoustic Steel String – Yamaha FG700S Acoustic Guitar

Guardame Las Vacas

December 4, 2010 By admin Leave a Comment

‘Guardame Las Vacas’ is a fun Renaissance Lute solo that included in both our ‘Guitar Music Theory Course‘, book with videos, and the ‘Reading Notes on Your Guitar’ book. It a lovely piece to play. Here is a video for your listening enjoyment. It’s a theme with variations. The song has a repeating pattern of 8 measures. This is one of the common ways to write music.

This is one of the songs that is included on the DVD of the Guitar Music Theory Course. Just noticed that ‘Unfailing Love’ is on the last screen. It’s the next song in the course. I had a blast writing several new worship songs for that course, showing different ways to make song arrangements.
