Brooklyn has taken guitar for 2 years. She is the sweetest thing. Always willing to work hard and always cheerful. She's my first student of the week and I am always excited to see her. She has a natural ability to play stringed instruments. She has finished learning all the notes on the guitar from all 6 strings and at the same time learned many chords not in her book. She performs with me on Wed. nights kid worship and once on Sunday morning for the whole church.
Colten Williams is a 5th grader just like Brooklyn. He's taken lessons all year and a several months of the year before. He likes to play loud and plays better under pressure. He has as many stories as Brooklyn and is always sharing them. He is a joy to teach and has lots depth and perception for a kids his age. He was playing Duke of Earl from the Hal Leonard Beginner Book.
here's a link to him and Jake playing with me on Sunday morning a few weeks ago. click here.
Colten can also speak publically. click here
Jake Brown is also a 5th grader and has taken a little less than Colten. He has taken to the guitar quickly and managed to accomplish much despite many obstacles in the last year. Being the oldest he leads out well. Although he has an electric, he prefers the acoustic sound. I enjoy his laid back personality and his charming smile. I know he'll continue to pursue learning the guitar, he has an excellent feel for the rhythm. Jake is also playing Duke of Earl, featuring the G, em, C and D7 chords
