The Song Learner Series is ideally suited to students who have completed the Beginners Worship Guitar DVDs but are not yet ready for the more advanced teaching of the Intermediate DVDs.

Each lesson is so much more than a quick run through of how to play the song. As experienced educators, we at Musicademy realise that many students need to have the information broken down, repeated slowly and then consolidated in the context of a song. The DVDs demo every song section and play it through a few times before each element is bolted together step-by-step. Using this method helps you get each sequence into muscle memory as quickly as possible.

A free downloadable resource sheet is available in the members area for each song. These contain chord charts, chord shapes and strumming patterns
