The first skills to learn on guitar are tuning, basic chords, and simple strumming patterns.

• Tuning is essential because an out-of-tune guitar makes every chord sound wrong.
• These five chords appear in thousands of popular tracks across all genres.
• Start with simple downstrokes before mixing in upstrokes for more complex grooves.

Once you can switch between a few chords smoothly, try playing along to a simple song you enjoy.

• The lesson format (online, in-person at home, or at the tutor's studio)
