The counting was confusing to me. I wasn’t sure on which count I was to pluck the strings. My husband pointed out that there were 1/2 notes and 1/4 notes so that was why you did not pluck a string on every count. A half note would be pluck, wait (or one, two). I am so glad to be able to play this beautiful & inspiring hymn – will continue to work on the counting. Thank you!!

Thank you so much Christy. When I finally made the time to sit down and focus on this it was a quick and easy learn. I’m excited to get a few more new pieces under my belt. Thank you again.

This was so nice to follow along, and I was able to get through the series as a beginner. The only feedback I have is that it would be nice to see your left hand from the other side (maybe that could be similar to the video of your face in a smaller box on the screen). Great videos, thank you!

I’ve been playing around as a beginner for the last few months (I play guitar and have studied a bit of music in the past so not a total beginner). Overall this was a great video, easy to follow and the teacher is so pleasant and engaging. 🙂
