I’m doing her finger picking course. I learned it in my own and learned to use my pinky as an anchor. Will try without! Also I like that she is human and makes mistakes here and there and keeps going! I have to learn internalize this, especially with singing, but guitar as well.

Very few people can do this song with justice, I know it seems just like another pretty song, but if you are from West Virginia or have family from there, it becomes personal. Two of my great-grandfathers were West Virginia coal miners, my grandmother and grandfather were both born in coal camps. So it is special. You did it good, thank you.

When I learned slack key guitar. My first lesson was to practice alternating base before my next lesson. It is so important. My teacher made sure that I kept the beat of the alternating base. I love this song . I change the words to IZ 's "to the place I belong West Makaha" (where I use to live). Just a music story. Thank u for all u do for the online music community. And that darn F chord still my nemesis. Someday it will sound good.

I also like your teaching style and know I can learn a lot from you. I'm well into Level 1 already and looking forward to more. I'll sign up for the fingerpicking course next.
I’m getting it. My Travis picking is now almost up to doing this. I’ll just listen and practice a lot more but, thanks to you, I now know I will get it.
