farmer61 Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 (edited) I'm doing some free lessons for a beginner and I'm looking to put a structure in place. Do any of you experienced tutors have a structure that you use with new students that I could have, that I'll adapt for my needs. Sort of thing I'm looking for is Lesson 1 - xxxxx Lesson 2 - xxxxx Lesson 3 - xxxxx Etc, My thoughts would be to use half the lesson on the above basoc stuff and half the lesson helping them play what they want to play? Any help would greatly appreciated. If you have any emailable stuff please pm me and I'll send over my email address. Thanks Edited March 10, 2011 by farmer61 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faiz0802 Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Lesson 1 - Freeing up your hands, left hand mostly. Show em the 1234 exercise. Ask em to play slow n easy. Explain what notes are, natural and accidental. And then jam with them a little. Lesson 2 - Variation in the above warmup exercise, String skipping, using a metronome. Lesson 3 - Depending on the progress so far, either intro to music theory or more finger exercises. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faiz0802 Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 I've never taught professionally per se, but thats how I went about teaching friends and folks who asked me. It helps to get a beginners bass book and work with them through it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
