For beginning students I prefer to use either Alfred's, Mel Bay, or Hal Leonard method books. I generally stay away from method books that use guitar tablature because I find that student will prefer to read the tablature instead of standard musical notation.

The games of the first stages should help students to develop their creativity, musical imagination and skills to interpret emotions. Read More
