Great advice here so far @OhWowMan . Nothing wrong with supplementing TAC with some other type of lesson(s).
I have only been with TAC for 8 months and have learned a lot. My take is that TAC is focused on technique, skills and knowledge and not necessarily learning songs. TAC provides a jumping off point for daily practice to reinforce sticking to your guitar routine. It provides at least 10 minutes of technique, skills and knowledge. No need to wonder “what should I do” when starting your practice.
To balance that I select a few songs I want to learn in each 90 day cycle that are match my other goals on technique. There are many YouTube videos focused on teaching the viewer how to play a specific song. Oh and by the way there is a TAC song vault (https://app.searchie.io/hub/254V7grV3m/)
that provides lessons in both flat picking and finger style techniques
I want to reinforce the idea of selecting a song or two to you really like and using them to inspire you and your learning. Select a song(s) you really like and try to make sure they are achievable at you proficiency level.
I also agree that one on one lessons to supplement what you are doing on TAC is a solid idea. Playing with others is also key.
Finally – make sure you are having fun and keep on playing! 😎🎶🎸

Thanks @stevieblues , @Fletch and @Cadgirl ! We plan on making it a yearly tradition. We all had a blast.
@stevieblues the guitar is a Breedlove Pursuit Parlor E MH – all mahogany back, sides and front. It is a great guitar do jams like this one and for fingerpicking songs.

Nicely done, Loraine. You are continuing to build you skill and confidence in the timing of your strumming as well as the singing of the song in time with what you are playing. Also your voice inflection continues to get better. Great job and thanks for sharing!

Exactly my plans @GerryB56 ! He has his own “guitar” (a cheap ukulele) thank he and I “jam” with. It seems he has the music gene in him. Now to cultivate it!
