My name is Alexis and I am a solid average guitar player-- I can strum just about anything. I would love to take my playing to the next level and learn fingerpicking songs. I just don't have a lot of time so I am trying to figure out if joining will be worth it. I currently live in Houston but am moving to Chicago this summer.

I'm 25 and my dad plays so I tried to start learning at 15 but didn't actually focus and practice enough to be able to do it until I was 23. I started looking for lessons because I don't have a lot of time to go somewhere and take lessons and I'm also kindof impatient right now--there are a few songs I just really want to play and I feel like I want to learn them and go back and get basic technique later...

I play steel string acoustic...I love it and don't really care about learning anything else until I get where I want to be on this!

I like playing country, but I recently (because of my dad) really got into more folky music like Jim Croce...I don't know a lot and I'm trying to expand my horizons but I love the sound.

I'll Have to Say I Love You In a Song- Jim Croce
Strong Enough- Sheryll Crow
Don't Think Twice It's Alright- Bob Dylan
The Last Thing On My Mind- Gram Parsons
Landslide- Fleetwood Mac

Those are my present goals





I was in pharmaceutical sales for a year and recently quit to join Teach for America. I will be teaching elementary in south Chicago starting this summer.

I love the outdoors, reading and traveling.

Hi Alexis welcome from Australia. As you probably know, almost all of the songs on your list are in the Target program so with some work they are all very achievable. Welcome aboard here and I can say with authority that all the resources you need to improved rapidly are right here on TG. Enjoy.

Hi Alexis, great intro. Target is perfect for you since you can work on the lessons whenever you want and at the rhythm you see fit.
