Below you can see how thousands of guitar teachers around the world take students from the point where they do not play the guitar at all to a place where they can move comfortably between the first eight chords that a beginner needs to learn in time to music

Although not suitable for a very first guitar lesson as the track moves a little too quickly and as a consequence the chord changes come along a little faster than most absolute beginners will be able to handle (and its important to make sure that the tasks given match up to the capabilities that they have already developed if you don't want to discourage your students) this material will let you know some of what we're about

Why are the teachwombat materials so inexpensive?

I have been told on more than one occasion by folks who understand the way online marketing works that I should split the resources on this site into a series of $25.00 packs covering kids stuff, adult beginner's, intermediate/advanced and jazz guitar materials, music theory resources and ukulele teaching stuff and that way I would get to earn more money from professional guitar teachers and "repeat customers" '

The folks who tell me this are probably right but to be honest I just don't want to do it

I'd rather give somebody a bargain than a feeling that they spent twenty five bucks on the "wrong" package and to get absolutely everything that would be useful to them they have to stick their (digital) hand in their (actual) pocket again and again

This may change in the future but at the moment I love the buzz that I get when somebody who bought my stuff gets in touch to say that they can't believe how much material there is included in the download'

The main difference in lesson content between the early stages of teaching children to play guitar and the same stage for adults is that kids sometimes find stretching their fingers across the entire width of the guitar neck a bit too challenging in the early stages. To solve this problem guitar teachers introduce their younger students to "reduced" (one finger) versions of three of the eight chords that any beginner should learn first


Above you can see some of our guitar chord shapes especially prepared for younger guitar students and below you will see a link that will allow you to print the poster for the C chord

encourage guitar students to practice with this log

Encourage your students to practice more

A common situation that I find myself in is that sometimes my students are obsessed with guitars to the extent that they can seem more like collectors than players. They can spend a whole lot of hard earned money convinced that by buying more and better guitars they somehow become a better player. They often spend hours on the internet becoming becoming ever more knowledgable about guitars but in many cases that does not seem to translate into a huge improvement to their playing. This sheet is a fun and satisfying way way of getting them to play more and to play better by not allowing themselves to buy a new guitar until they have "earned" it.

All they need to do is decide upon a budget and pay themselves an hourly rate to practice. When they have practiced enough then they can "allow" themselves to buy the new guitar. The "rate of pay" can be varied in accordance with their personal circumstances and the price of the new guitar that they wish to own but fifty hours or real practice should see an improvement in the player who then feels good about awarding themselves a $500.00 guitar as the reward for the progress that they just made. It seems a bit silly but in some cases it has proved to be VERY effective.

For some students this can make all of the difference. Suddenly they have a clearly defined goal with a reward at the end of it. All thet you need to do is to remind them what practice is.

Practice is not.....

Noodling around on the guitar and going through things they can already play (usually riffs, the beginning bits of solos and introductions)

Practice is.....

The study and repeat of scales and arpeggios and extending a students repertoire of techniques songs and styles. In short it is working on things that they can't yet do. Learning a new song (all of the way through- with an ending, not just the intro). Applying themselves to music theory or working on the basics of a new style (eg Jazz, Country, Funk, Folk, Fingerpicking, Blues etc) with which they are unfamiliar. Practice is that which makes them a better guitar player and not just something to distract them till its time to log on to the internet in order to argue with some other plonker about the best kind of pickup magnets

Guitar Chord Grids: Giant "Letter Sized Study Aids"

If you like what you see then go to the BIG GRIDS page where you can download a file with more than twenty of them completely free of charge.

The charts are ideal for guitar teachers involved in group teaching (just stick them up where the whole group can see them). These diagrams are also a great resource to distribute to your guitar students. Your customers can stick them on their own walls at home as a cool looking study aid. There are many posters that you can get displaying tiny versions of hundereds of guitar chords but the problem is that you have to get up real close and squint at a tiny diagram. the BIG GRIDS turns that idea on it's head. Your students can study guitar chord diagrams without even getting out of bed if they want to.



free ukulele teaching resources

A recent addition to our download (and remember that you get everything that you can see on the website for a single payment of $25.00) are the Ukulele Teaching Resources.

Ukuleles are becoming ever more popular in the modern music classroom and as well as having the advantage of being cheap and portable they sound great and are easy to play on a rudimentary level. They are wonderful things in their own right but it is also possible to regard a ukulele as the ideal "gateway drug" to guitar playing
