Learning Project

Over this semester, I have been doing a learning project for my EDTC 300 class. I have explored many learning resources for playing guitar and found the best ways to learn. I have also significantly improved from only knowing three chords and the basics of strumming my guitar. The first resource I explored was Guitar […]

For this blog post, I decided to learn “See You Again” by Wiz Khalifa feat. Charlie Puth. I found the song on Tabs, and it was labelled as easy. Learning this song was pretty easy as it had chords that I was previously familiar with Em, G, C, and D. I haven’t played a D […]

Recently my friends have been singing this song on repeat. So A Thousand Miles has been stuck in my head for ages, so I decided why not try to learn it on my guitar. I went on to Tabs and looked up the song finding a good version that I could play with only 4 […]

This week I decided to try learning one of my favourite songs by my favourite artist Alec Benjamin on the guitar. This song is called water fountain, and I have loved listening to it for a very long time. The lyrics have always spoken to me, and when I first started learning how to play […]

This week for my learning project, I wanted to try and learn a song on the guitar. So, I looked up YouTube easy-to-learn guitar songs for beginners. This gave me many different options, but I wanted to choose a song I at least knew to a small degree. After scrolling, I saw the song “Riptide” […]

This week I used the Simply Guitar App I got off the App Store to help me learn more about the guitar. The app showed me some basics about playing individual notes throughout the process. But I mainly picked up learning to play two new chords. These were E major and E minor. The finger […]

This week I decided to look more into the basics of guitar playing since I didn’t know much about individual notes and the guitar itself. Previously I had just been shown a few chords I was attempting to put together. When I looked for Guitar lesson websites and videos for beginners, I found a website […]

I have always been interested in the music of all different kinds. I started playing the piano at three years old and picked up the French Horn as my band instrument throughout middle and high school. Ever since I was little, one of the things I always wanted to learn how to play the guitar. […]
