Any advice is welcome as this is giving me quite the headache Oh no, you're on your own!! Try open chords, major and minor for starters. That should keep her busy for some time, then why not play childrens song? I think that would be fun for her. -------------------- My bands homepage

First check out what music she prefer, and teach her some very easy songs using open chords. This should be enough for first 2-3 classes, depending how she's progressing. Then start learning her some nice licks - don't start with theory at once, unless she is very interested to learn it. Theory is the beginning can be very demotivating sometimes. So keep it interesting, and don't flash your knowledge too much. Be down to earth and very patient. No need to push her to the limits, just try to slowly show her a couple of tricks. Remember, you are not teaching yet - you are slowly trying to increase students wish to play the guitar. Student in the end practice everything alone, so you are there just to show what to practice during certain period of time, in order to get things going.
