Step by step

How it goes

  1. 01

    Set up the instrument 8 min

    Check posture, thumb position and basic tuning before playing.

    Use age-appropriate materials, protect personal information, and stop any task that feels unsafe, misleading or beyond your current competence.

  2. 02

    Build each chord 8 min

    Place fingers one at a time and test every string for clarity.

  3. 03

    Practise changes 8 min

    Move G–C–D on a slow count, prioritising clean sound over speed.

Listen to your body: stop if anything hurts, and check with a doctor if you have a health condition.
