Hello @kdmathis and @Butterfly ;
I just wanted to make it clear that there are no “levels” here. The only level that matters is when you are so advanced that the lessons are boring. Then, they won’t be helpful to you.
Tony’s method is unique. There are other people who are starting to imitate his approach. He didn’t come up with this approach on his own, he simply was the first to adapt it to guitar instruction.
So what is that? At it’s basic, it is about having direction, intentional practice. That’s what TAC provides. Then, commit to a short amount of time on a regular basis. That’s what we provide. From there, it’s all about attitude.
Most important, we must have fun as if we were a kid who paid no attention to how well they did or didn’t do at imitating the instruction, but simply did their best. Then, we take notice of what we do well and congratulate ourselves for that… every single time. Purposely find something to give yourself props for. Finally, we notice what we didn’t do so well on and use that to give guidance to future playing/practicing by focusing on improving those things.
Then there is the specific arrangement of the playing session. First, we warm up. Then we practice some exercise. Then we play around and have fun. Done. However long it is doesn’t matter, as long as we do it consistently 3 times per week, or 5 times per week or whatever, and a minimum of 10 minutes, though it can be an hour if that works for you.
That’s why the daily lessons work for people who are at different levels. Each person will learn what ever they are capable of learning at that time from that lesson. That’s why there’s no beginning or end to Tony’s lessons. Just jump in and go round and round until they are boring. Then go make your fortune, or teach others, or play for family and friends, wherever you guitar journey takes you.
I hope this helps. Feel free to ask additional questions. Also, I will tag @jumpinjeff and @dr_dave . Maybe they can add more to what has been said.
