Fantastic win @FatherTime603 – Keep up the great work!

Wow, very impressive @bugmeist . This was beautifully done. Great composition. Keep up the great work!

Thanks for this performance @KevinZ . I hadn’t heard this song in a long time. I had a very emotional Mother’s Day, because I recently put my mom in a nursing home. It is so difficult to see a mother age and become something so different from what I remember her as. I have a daughter too, and this brought back a lot of memories of when she was younger and then growing into a beautiful young lady.

Excellent performance @pasvorto . Keep up the great work, and I look forward to more performances.

@Ed_G This is happening to everyone, and this is a known issue that TAC is aware of and they’ve heard from many people regarding this matter. It is on the list of items to be addressed (and hopefully changed) in the near future.

I hear your frustration Jennifer. The only time I’ve experienced something similar to what you’re outlining is on the old TAC site when I was taking a skill lesson and the site said I had to complete the previous lesson first in order to move forward. If you are having difficulty, I suggest contacting Support.

@Crabby I have to agree that what you’re looking for is the video ‘Getting Started,’ which is found by clicking your profile name next to your picture at the top and then clicking Quick Start. Welcome to TAC and keep on plucking.

@Raydar Occasionally Tony does switch out a chord or note when doing the videos. You can play either way and it should work out fine.

@pasvorto Welcome to TAC! As for the daily challenges and skills courses, they are geared towards all levels of skill. Some will be easier than others depending on your current skills. My suggestion is to try those you’re interested in. The daily challenges are Monday through Friday, and again some will seem easier than others depending on your skill level. All the skills courses and daily challenge are meant to build a solid practice routine, which is a minimum of 10 minutes per day. Also, twice a year the Fretboard Wizard course is opened for registration. It’s a separate cost, but it is worth the extra money, in my opinion. You’ll own the course for life if you decide to move forward with it.
Enjoy the site, and let us know if you have questions or comments. Have fun with it!

Hi @SteveinCT the skills courses are added to occasionally. There isn’t a set schedule, but I know that since the new site, several 5 day challenges were added to it.

You have a lot of great wins here @Terry6422000 . Keep having fun and learning.

The song sounds familiar, but if so it’s been a long time since hearing it. Great job on the muted strings and a nice performance @Michelle-PSL
-
I can truly say that this was my favorite so far, and I feel you played and sang it extremely well. Great job @Michelle-PSL

Welcome to TAC @Jolene . I had absolutely no experience either when I started. I called strings, “keys” – lol. Anyway, I would definitely focus on the 30 days to play challenge to begin with (under the skills section). You can take as much or as little time as you like going through it. The program is meant to teach you practice skills too, so the 10 minutes a day should be the minimum goal that you shoot for. But you can play as long as you like. Shorter practice times tend to yield the best results overall. I would just focus on the 30 days to play before delving into the other areas, but nothin is off limits. This is your program. The 90 day action plan is highly recommended. That’s where you set goals for just the first 90 days. Then repeat each 90.
Good luck and have lots of fun!!

Keep plugging away the best you can on the daily challenges. You will make progress, even when it seems impossible. Give it a good 10 minutes, mark complete, and you can keep playing around with the daily challenge or look into something else that piques your interest. A good place to start might be the Strumming course, or the Jumpstart to fingerpicking or flatpicking. If you have a particular interest, you might want to start with that one. Otherwise, just choose one and have a go at it. There are the newer 5 day challenges. Those might be of some interest.
