    I took music lesson for years and a lot of this I was never taught. This class gave me some great info and learning skill. Didn’t find the pdf music sheets until I was through with the classes at the very end. Maybe it should be put at the beginning of the class. Highly recommend this course whether you are a beginner or not.
