Teacher’s Secret Weapon:

Ever had a student request a song you’ve never heard of at the beginning of a lesson? It happens to the best of us. This book is your secret weapon to conquer those awkward moments and keep your lessons running smoothly.

Here’s the game plan:

1. Identify the key: Use your expert ear (because, let’s face it, you’re a pro!) to determine the song’s key.
2. Simplify with capo power: Strategically place the capo to align with the key of C or G, revealing the song’s core scales and chords.
3. Demystify the music: With this book at your side, your student can easily see the relevant scales, chords, and strumming patterns you’re using to break down the song.
4. Unlock diatonic secrets: Since 95% of student requests fall within diatonic harmony, figuring out the chords becomes a breeze!
5. Conquer any rhythm: From basic beats to complex 16th notes and triplets, the rhythm chapter provides exercises and breakdowns to make even the trickiest rhythms manageable.

Stop stressing about unfamiliar songs and start inspiring your students! This book empowers you to confidently tackle any request and showcase your musical prowess, even with songs you’ve never encountered before.

(P.S. The next book in the series tackles the remaining 5% of requests, diving into the world of harmonic minor and other advanced scales!)
