Hi Tomas

Replaying this after several months shows me that it now comes much easier, not yet fluently but there is nevertheless improvement sinds June, even if there has been a forced “holiday” for 2 months. I am very happy to see a great difference.
Well, you are always stimulating and not talking negatively about anything, that helps a lot!

Hi Tomas
You say in the video you play “4, 3,2, 1,2, 3, 2, 1, but on the download the last note is on the fourth string, whereas following the video it should be on the first string. Do I understand something wrong?
Beside that “I miss the train” from 6:33 on…

Thanks Sissel. First time I’ve seen you use the contact form. AWESOME!

What do you mean by “I miss the train”?

Well in number 14 we did already a first “test”, after that my brother in law saw that the cookies on my computer were stopping the communication in the “comments”.

With “missing the train” I want to say that you go over to another “form” of fingerpicking at 6:33 without talking about it before. You just do it and say it there as if it was the most normal thing. And of course for you it is normal, but for me it breaks the routine from what I have learned in this exercise until now. When, of course, I stop the video several times I slowly understand what is happening.

I also now understand that the download is corresponding to what you learn for those who can more, in the end of your video.
For me, who are really a beginner in fingerpicking, that is confusing, as you already have understood. For me a download for the beginning of your lesson would have been “comfortable”.
