Wow, I am seriously impressed that you did this tutorial on such a tough song. It is excellent, well done. Yeah, I am still watch you, I just don't comment often. You are still a top shelf instructor.
Hi! I’m watching this from Sweden. I’m 54 and just re-started playing guitar after not having played since I was a teenager. You are very good at dismantle the learning process in to small steps and describing tips and tricks for how to learn. Just love it and will keep following your channel! 🙏🏼❤️
Excellent tutorial. No rushing. No showing of for the first ten minutes... Then doing the tutorial. And...a good voice. If you want to learn guitar... One can't go wrong here.
Hi, I am 56 yrs old from India, you are the Politest and kindest teacher I have seen, I like your teaching style, excellent, very simple and very engaging..I will be following from here on, Thankyou..🙏❤
Hello, I have watched many of your videos. You take the time to benefit (older people like me ) to enjoy guitar playing again. Had a severe injury and could not play the guitar for almost 30 years. With your great lessons, I'm getting much better. Love the fact that you mention the importance of relaxing, I know now that relaxation and practicing are so important. Keep up the great work You have a beautiful smile and a calmness that all of us admire. Best Regards.
My first comment, to support your great channel ;-) I am a ukulele beginner and thought this guitar-based video might not be relevant to me. But once I realized the chords are all familiar (and thank goodness F is easy on the uke!) I could follow along here too. Thank you for your encouraging, helpful support, it's a pleasure to learn with you.
Hopefully soon, you'll acquire a Kanilea - they are AWESOME! I had a few inexpensive ukes until I watched YT video of "Honoka & Azita Miserlou" then I immediately bought a Kanilea!
Many many thanks to you for teaching with such patience understanding and love. Disabled fire fighter dealing with a TBI, doing all my best to get back the gift of music! I pray one day I will be able to do the same to help others share this wonderful gift of music which transends all languages, universal! Blessings and prosperity to you. Thank you for not charging money which some of us have limited resources for now! Heart felt, love your teaching method! I look forward to seeing all your videos, five stars and then some!
Hey Bernadette ,Thanks for running through The Hotel California at a speed including lyrics this aged beginner could keep up with. Cheers TonyH. Portsmouth UK 🇬🇧
Dear Bernadette, I was enchanted by your velvety way of teaching, with an angelic calm voice, decorated with a wonderful smile. You explain wonderfully and show a simple way of playing. You have a truly enormous, unique gift for this. It makes me want to listen to you, watch you and play with you. I have been playing the guitar as an amateur for couple of years. I have always liked the song Hotel California by The Eagles and it put me in a good mood and somehow I never get bored. I used to play it in a different way, but in this lesson of yours I played it with you with these simple chords and it sounds pure and beautiful. I am writing to you from a country on the Vistula River in Europe called Poland. Do not stop in your efforts to teach playing the guitar. You bring peace and harmony to the viewers. Of course I have subscribed to your channel. With my best regards.
Enjoyed the lesson. One of my favorite songs. Picked up my 1965 Fender Mustang mom and dad gave me in 1965 and after having it restrung began to refresh my finger movements and cords. Thanks for the visuals on the cords.
You have an incredible calming voice and a great understanding in instructor. I picked up the guitar for the first time during the pandemic because I was bored and was determined to learn how to play an instrument which I picked the guitar! I’m glad I found you which you have a lovely style of teaching and a beautiful woman.
I am gradually learning guitar, pick it up & put it down. You are so thorough & patient with little tips & given me the enthusiasm to carry on. Great - Thanks so much
Many thanks Bernadette; I'm from France, and I'm just begining the guitare ( 57 years old) , and you are definitively my lovely teacher. I like so much your explanations, this is very clear. Big applause!!!!
Bernadett, I love your easy going style of teaching. I'm 66 and picked up the guitar about two years ago after retiring. Having a blast! Thank you for breaking this down for all of us newbies. Keep up the great work. Dave from Delaware, US of A. 😊
WELL DONE LADY, this world needs EXCELLENT TEACHERS like you dear, and you are very SIMPLE and LOVING, and I see a lady in you who is saving the REPUTATION OF A REAL TEACHER, BEST OF LUCK DEAR TEACHER. I’m a GUITAR TEACHER from SRILANKA SINCE 1967.
I am just starting again after 30 years of not playing music. I picked the guitar up again. And found you on utube. That was a great lesson,and confidence builder. I hope to catch some more of your lessons in the future.
Absolutely love your laid back teaching style. I have played drums for many years and decided to start to try to play guitar. Your lessons have helped tremendously. Thank you.
You're a great teacher and your smile and cheerful voice makes learning so enjoyable. Sometimes I can already play what you're teaching but i watch anyway just for fun and relaxation..and your helpful tips.
Thank you Bernadette. I m from Turkey. I stared guitar last year. I'm 64 years old )) This song is my favorite song of my youth. I must play definetely, I liked your style,many thanks 🙏❤
I have just retired and I am starting (I guess) the best part of the end of the road: I used to be a classic guitar student and trying to wake up my knowledge and practice to make the guitar part of my soul....!!! Thank you Bernardette to help me in my personal goal....!! Greetings from Chile. 😘
Thanks to you, your nice, clear and smiling way of teaching this tutorial, I finally understand the strumming required in this wonderful song, on which I have struggled since forever to find the correct strumming. Thank you for that 🎉❤
Great explanation, calm voice, professional teacher. Those tiny mistakes make this lesson more real and relief tension when learning as a begginer. You've got unique skill making such tutorials. It's like being on a real lesson teacher-student.
you are an amazing teacher i have learned a lot of chords with my teacher in the last 2 years and find the most important tip is to relax just let it happen brilliant i love this song and i am a late starter 58 but i could listen your lesson all day dont worry about been perfect please keep it going thanks gerry ireland
Я играю на гитаре и пою с 14 лет своих. Сейчас мне 65 лет. Эту композицию разучил ещё в 1978 году. Но с удовольствием посмотрел видеоурок и подписался на ваш блог. "Век живи и век учись",- у нас говорят. Счастья, здоровья, успехов в творчестве и денег вам автор!
One of the best tutorials I’ve watched! I love your teaching style - easy to understand and follow! Plus, you seem like a very nice, kind person. Thank you so much! 💕🙏🏼💕
I'm impressed you are the first guitar teacher to remind us to relax, breath is important. Your style is like my wife when she taught ballroom dance, relax it's fun and some times you have to shake it out, arms that is. PS I married my ballroom dance teacher almost 20 years ago. Today is my 73 birthday your instruction is a great present.
8:43 "Remind your face that you're not mad" 💚 (with that gentle reminder-tap on 'the 3rd eye area', and a little rub on the bridge of the nose?) I'm taking that one with me in my heart❤(hopefully forever) Such a sweet notion. Thank you for the clear, calm, and relaxing tutorial.
Thanks Bernadette. That was a great lesson. Your beginner friendly lesson makes it possible to play one of my favorite Eagles songs and actually sound good. Thanks so much.
Hi Bernadette, what shall I say! I am form London and have been trying to learn this song forever, but never I could find someone to break tis down so easily. In a matter of 30 minutes I am comfortably remembering the strum patterns and chord progression.. wow. I am amazed. Thank you so much and keep poting such lovely videos. Thank you and well done !!!
You are very inspirational. Thank you for your lesson. I feel like I did Yoga and guitar at the same time lol. Your joy for playing music is obvious and contagious..I love it
