Students' Evaluations



	"I think this method is at least somewhat effective because it gets the job done. For beginners this would be perfect if the process could be sped up maybe a couple fractions more because it does teach people how to play songs albeit slightly slower than the average person can learn it. Besides this it is an alright program." Daniel D. Bishop Rosecrans High School Zanesville, Ohio Grade 10 ................................................................................................................................................................................................. "It was great! The fact that the info is spoken to you and you yourself are not reading it, you are able to remember the info better. The repetition also helps. I myself am in auditory learner and this helped me greatly." Austin D. Bishop Rosecrans High School Zanesville, Ohio Grade 12 ................................................................................................................................................................................................. "Talking Tabs was great! It taught me all the fundamentals I needed to know in order to get started at playing the guitar and more! I learned the crucial steps to becoming a good guitarist. Without Talking Tabs, I would be lost, but they work with you step-by-step and you can always go back and review." Luke L. Bishop Rosecrans High School Zanesville, Ohio Grade 10 ................................................................................................................................................................................................ "I liked it alot. At some times it was repetitive and slow, but these are necessary to learning guitar. I didn't see or notice any problems. My guitar playing is attributed to Talking Tabs. I have learned so much and will continue to learn more. I give Talking Tabs 2-thumbs up." Josh H. Bishop Rosecrans High School Zanesville, Ohio Grade 12 ................................................................................................................................................................................................. "Talking Tabs is an excellent method for teaching new guitarists. It taught me everything I needed to know, from tuning to the song "Brown Eyed Girl". I love Talking Tabs!" Vincent J. Bishop Rosecrans High School Zanesville, Ohio Grade 10 ................................................................................................................................................................................................. "Talking Tabs is great! Excellent way to begin. Teachers crucial fundamentals needed to play. I recommend this to everyone." Dakota M. Bishop Rosecrans High School Zanesville, Ohio Grade 12 ................................................................................................................................................................................................. "I like this class. When I learned guitar from my teacher, I missed some parts, but I could review through this class. Then, even though I'm not playing guitar well, I can play guitar more than Korea. It is my favorite class. In addition, I could make new friends, more talking with friends, more listening. I appreciate for Mr. Myers." Subin C. (Foreign exchange student from Korea) Bishop Rosecrans High School Zanesville, Ohio Grade 11 ................................................................................................................................................................................................. "I think this method of learning the guitar is very good for beginners. It gives people a good opportunity to become familiar with the guitar, and simple methods to use to get yourself to a higher skill level. I think this method can easily be used for people who are sight impaired like the creator, or for people with perfect vision. In total, it's a simple and effective way to become a guitarist." Ashland G. Bishop Rosecrans High School Zanesville, Ohio Grade 10 ................................................................................................................................................................................................. "I felt that Talking Tabs was an easy and good way of learning how to play guitar. I also felt that it was very effective when it came to memorizing a song or chord because it went over the notes multiple times. It was an interesting way to learn how to play guitar but I feel that it would be better for someone who cannot see or read music. Overall, Talking Tabs was a good method for learning guitar when you are first starting out, and I would recommend it to anybody who wants to learn guitar." Nick E. Bishop Rosecrans High School Zanesville, Ohio Grade 10 ................................................................................................................................................................................................. "After Talking Tabs, I felt a little better about my guitar skills. We started guitar before the series of CD's, so it was too repetitive and went over stuff we already learned. Overall, it's a good way to teach someone who has no clue about guitars. But personally, I didn't enjoy it. I felt it was too repetitive, and got very annoying." Andy B. Bishop Rosecrans High School Zanesville, Ohio Grade 10 ................................................................................................................................................................................................. "Talking Tabs is good for beginning guitarists to learn how to play different chords, simple songs, and even the most simple things like how to hold the guitar, the pick, it starts with it all. Talking Tabs is descriptive, helpful, and a fun way to learn how to play the guitar. I think Talking Tabs is good for learning how to play the guitar. It helped me learn the fun way." Mackenzie K. Bishop Rosecrans High School Zanesville, Ohio Grade 9 ................................................................................................................................................................................................. "I feel that Talking Tabs is a great way for any aged individual to learn, from scratch, to play the guitar. Being a young adult myself, I have learned many new techniques and information about guitars and playing guitar methods. Although I started from scratch, with no experience or knowledge, I've advanced from level to level. This is a great program, but at times, I feel that it is hard to remain attentive and focused throughout the audio sessions. This program is excellent for very interested individuals." Season M. Bishop Rosecrans High School Zanesville, Ohio Grade 12 ................................................................................................................................................................................................. "After using Talking Tabs, I learned many new methods and ways on how to play the guitar. I have played a little guitar before and learned much more to enhance my skills. Pull-offs, left-hand muffle, hammer-on, and C and G scales are just a few new techniques. This method is a good way to teach a "very beginning" guitarist because they explain and break down playing step-by-step. If it could help me to learn, it will surely help anyone around the world!" Chelsea A. Bishop Rosecrans High School Zanesville, Ohio Grade 10 ................................................................................................................................................................................................. "This was a good way for me to learn guitar. This was my first time playing guitar and the oppportunities that Talking Tabs presented was more effective. Talking Tabs was hands-on and I'm a hands-on person. This is very effective and I think it is the best way to learn guitar." Jen D. Bishop Rosecrans High Schol Zanesville, Ohio Grade 12 ................................................................................................................................................................................................. "I feel that Talking Tabs is a very effective program. I also feel that when I started trying Talking Tabs, I was bored at first, but eventually this program became a very fun and great thing to use. Overall, I love this program and feel that we all should use this. It will help you in the long run like it did for me. Talking Tabs Rocks!! Literally!!" Katie S. Bishop Rosecrans High School Zanesville, Ohio Grade 11 ................................................................................................................................................................................................. "I think Talking Tabs is a great program because it is an opportunity for more unfortunate kids to learn something fun to do. Talking Tabs showed me how to play guitar and I'm not blind. This method is not only good for the blind, but all beginners. This program is a very effective program and should be used in all schools." Lacey L.
