Longtime student's review The instructors-in my case Joe K & John R-are just so good and thorough with teaching style. I do wish there was a less circuitous route to sending messages to either Peghead or to individual instructors though. A separate method for longtime students versus the more "frequently asked questions" method.

Beginner Banjo I signed up for beginning banjo. Lessons are pretty basic, which is good. And not too long, which is also good. You have to practice between lessons. My only issue came about when playing Rolling in my sweet baby's arms. I couldn't tell exactly when the chord changes were occurring. The instructor mentioned referring to the written music, which I have not been able to find anywhere on the site.

I have unsubscribed from the Ukulele… I have unsubscribed from the Ukulele lessons for a number of reasons: -In my opinion the sessions were too fast for a beginner. -Strumming patterns are not intuitive yet not well taught by the instructor - visual strumming pattern not presented well, perhaps up/down arrow diagrams would be better. -Chord patterns not always shown on the video - I had to look at the instructor's hand to check what chord I should be playing. I've been playing the ukulele for 9 months but found this course difficult and too fast. I viewed sessions many times and thus my progress was very slow. I wrote to you suggesting changes but the only response was for me to slow down the video. Quite disappointed as I was looking forward to this manner of learning. Peter

The level of teaching is superb… The level of teaching in the dobro courses I've done is so well structured. Learn some technique and then learn songs to use tha technique. The level of detail given is great, I was never left confused or unsur. The ability to swap courses gives good flexibility.

Great teachers and content Great teachers and content. Being able to change programs has been great too, since it lets you explore around and find the ideal program for you. My playing has seen vast improvements since I invested the time with Peghead Nation and I plan on continuing to follow that course for a long time.
