Why Pentatonic Scales Are Essential for All Guitarists

Why Pentatonic Scales Are Essential for All Guitarists Megan L. Want to learn scales on guitar but not sure where to start? Guitar teacher  Joey I.  explains why pentatonic is the way to go The title of this article says it all: Why pentaonic scales are  essential for guitarists. Learning these scales is an absolute necessity. Now is it really necessary to know pentatonic scales to be able to play the guitar? No! A lot of guitarists go their whole career learning riffs, songs, and making up licks based off of the knowledge that they have while enjoying every minute of it. However, a lot of these guitarists know in the back of their mind that they should learn their scales. If you have been a guitarist for a little while, you have probably heard about it from other guitarists, musicians, teachers, and Internet articles that you should know your scales. And most guitarists have the desire to learn scales, but become overwhelmed because of how many scales there are to learn, and let’s be frank: there are a lot to learn and when you learn them, they are not easy to immediately apply to your playing. Well, I’m here to tell you that the pentatonic scale is the easiest and most useful scale to learn. The pentatonic scale can be used in almost every single song. Even if the song you are playing to uses a scale other than the pentatonic, you can play pentatonic over it and it will sound amazing. The pentatonic scale gets more miles per gallon than any other scale, and the fuel is recyclable. You can just keep using it and using it, and it never gets old. It is truly the bread and butter of guitar soloing, and song writing. Most songs that you love that sound “complicated” are actually using pentatonic guitar scales. Let’s look at what makes the pentatonic scale so easy: To start, the pentatonic scale has fewer notes than other scales.   The word pentatonic literally translates to 5 tones. Pent, meaning five. And tonic, meaning tone. “Our brains are inherently wired to know the pentatonic scale,” says famous musician Bobby McFerrin.   Check out this Ted Talk video where Bobby uses the audience to show how we all naturally know the pentatonic scale: Finally, you can play this scale over virtually every song, so this makes practicing a lot easier. Now, here are a few tips when practicing this scale: Practice slowly. When youre ready, try out these pentatonic scale exercises for guitarists. Make sure each note rings out and sounds good. The benefits of learning the pentatonic guitar scales: Learning the scale shapes allows you to improvise over virtually any song or backing track. Once you unlock this ability, practicing becomes easier and far more enjoyable. Not sure what we mean? Watch the video below. The pentatonic scale is the foundation for almost every other scale there is. Learning this foundation will set you up to easily play the other scales. Especially the blues scale, natural minor scale, harmonic minor scale, and the melodic minor scale. It will increase your confidence in playing dramatically. No more feelings of being overwhelmed by scales or the guitar. Your skill level will increase two fold because of this. Finally, it will allow you to seamlessly improvise with other musicians in a real live setting. Your friends will be thoroughly impressed and your confidence will soar. Once you have become comfortable with the pentatonic scales, try applying them by improvising over a backing track or your favorite song. Change the speed and rhythm, but most importantly, HAVE FUN! For a visual reminder of the G Major pentatonic scale, see the infographic below. Do you have any more questions about how the pentatonic scales work, or how to play them?

You shouldn't have to worry about your choice of photographer on your wedding day. (Source: Free-Photos)Choosing the right wedding photographer is therefore hugely important.Firstly, you need to think about your budget when choosing your wedding photographer. You’ll have to adjust your search to photographers within your budget. For example, the photographer could be there the entire wedding day. This, and other options, could increase the cost. If you decide to hire a well-known photographer, you can expect to pay a decent amount.Their reputation will have a big effect on how much they charge.  You should know that photographers can charge anywhere between £500 and £3,000 and an experienced photographer will charge more than a novice.Establishing a budget at the start can help you from getting lost when looking at all the different wedding photographers around and will help you to save time by not considering photographers outside of your budget.Once you’ve decided on your bud get, you’ll need to decide on the types of wedding photos you’d like. Natural, posed, black and white, etc., there are plenty of options available when it comes to getting your wedding snaps.You might want to have a look on social networks like Pinterest and Instagram. There are tonnes of photos posted every day and they’ll help give you an idea of what to expect.Finally, you’ll want to arrive at a shortlist of two or three photographers and start getting in touch with them. You’ll need to have decided upon a date before you get in touch with your photographers. Once you’ve booked your venue, the photographer will be able to book those dates.When you first get in touch, use this time to get to know the photographer and ask them any questions you may have.What do you expect from the photographer? How is the wedding going to play out? Is there a theme?You can ask the photographer about their experience and if they’ve photographed a wedding with a similar theme.You may ge t recommendations for wedding photographers from your friends or other people involved in your wedding. You can also find wedding photographers online.Photographing weddings is much harder than it seems. For example, wedding photography packages will include the photographer spending almost the whole day at your wedding, trying to capture candid photos of the guests and the wedding party. They need to constantly move around the wedding venue so that they're in the right place at the right time to capture these photos and once they've got all their photos, there'll be a good amount of sorting and post-processing to get the most out of the thousands of photos they took on the day.10 Tips for Taking Good Wedding PhotosTaking good wedding photos requires professionalism, skill, and organisation. Being a wedding photographer isn’t anywhere near as easy as it might look and many photographers need to invest a lot of time and money before they can start capturing photos of the bride and groom.Here’s some advice for wedding photographers looking to capture the best moments during a wedding:Meet with the couple beforehandTake two camerasMake a list of the important parts of the weddingScope out the wedding venuesAsk for help from the guestsUse depth of fieldWork in RAW on the dayTake bracketed shotsUse a cobra flashEdit the photos after the wedding A good photographer will be in the right place at the right time to get the best shots. (Source: ANURAG1112)These simple rules will greatly improve your photos and get the job done effectively and professionally. However, the golden rule is to enjoy your work and capture the spontaneity on the day.The best wedding photographers will have a level of professionalism and whether you work with a photography company or as in independent photographer, customers expect their wedding photographs to capture all the fun of the day without their photographer getting in the way.How Much Does Wedding Photography Cost?Once you’ve decided upon a budget for your wedding, you need to think about how much of it you’ll dedicate to your photographer. Many couples tend to think that wedding photography is rather expensive. This is because they tend to forget all the work that goes into it.The photographer will work more than just the day. As explained before, the photographer needs to meet with the c ouple, go around the venue, and set up all their equipment. This can take several hours or a few days. Make sure that your photographer is within your budget. You don't want to have to scrimp on other things (like doves) because of the cost of the photography. (Source: klausPeter)In addition to the preparation and the day of the wedding, the photographer also needs to spend time going through the photos and editing them after the wedding. Postproduction involves sorting the photos, improving them, cropping them, etc.Then there’s the cost of the final product be it a USB key, a CD, slides, or photo albums.That’s why you mustn’t think of their work as just the day of the wedding. A day of photography could amount to several days to a week of work from the photographer.Do you now see why it seems so expensive?The cost will vary from one photographer to another. Some might work for a company whereas others may be self-employed and have to pay for a studio, for example. Many variables can affect the cost of the photographer as well as their reputation and experience.Finally, you need to consider the cost of their equipment. Their equipment won’t be cheap and over time will need to be replaced. Similarly, to avoid any disasters, many photographers will have backup cameras, memory cards, batteries, etc.It’s unlikely that you’ll pay less than £1,000 for the day. This is a very fair price for a professional photographer, by the way. If you desperately need to pay less than that, you'll have to make sacrifices.You might need to get in a friend or family member and hope for mates’ rates. Similarly, you don’t want your photographer to have to travel too far.If they’re not shooting digitally, you can easily spend upwards of £2,500 for the day. Developing film isn’t cheap, after all.Where Can You Plan a Wedding Photo Shoot?In addition to shooting the wedding, some couples want personal photos and portraits taken either on the day or at another time. There are several places you can choose to do these photo shoots even if they are on the big day. In addition to the photos you get taken on the day, you might also want to get a photoshoot as a couple in other places. (Source: Pexels)The important thing is to find the perfect location so think carefully about the lighting and whether or not you’d be able to make it there in a wedding dress or suit. You’ll want to avoid muddy or dusty places if you want to keep the dress clean.To avoid having to get all dolled up again, most couples try and get these photos done on the day of the ceremony. In this case, you’ll need to keep this in mind when booking your venue.Other couples prefer to get these photos taken on a different day to make the whole process less stressful. In this case, you can get the photos taken away from the venue.For example, you can get your photos taken in your favourite places: where you met, where you had your first date, where you like to go together, etc.You want your photos to have a personal feel and remind you of the things you love. Choose places you love and feel comfortable in. You need to feel comfortable in front of the lens to take the best photos.If you don’t have any particular places in mind, think about going somewhere beautiful. Castles, beaches, fields of flowers, etc. You can also choose original places like fairgrounds or an old train station.Finally, you might want to get photos on your honeymoon, wherever you decide to go! In that case, you might want to get a photographer there rather than paying for your wedding photographer to come with you!A destination wedding might end up being more costly, especially if you expect professional photographers to come with you. Of course, getting that perfect wedding was always going to come at a cost. If your wedding is hard to get to, you mightn't have many options when it comes to photographers who can make it so you can expect to pay more for your photography packages.

Four Ideas for Building Students Persistence

Four Ideas for Building Students’ Persistence Four Ideas for Building Students Persistence If theres one skill that will help your students long-term, it is persistence. Students who persevere through challenging work are better equipped for college, and they are able to maintain a positive attitude no matter what life throws their way. Here are a few tips for building this aptitude in your students: Promote problem-solving skills. Give students difficult problems, and then teach them how to tackle those problems in different ways. When one attempt doesnt work, encourage them to brainstorm another approach. Talk to your students about coming up with multiple ways to solve any given problem. Push students appropriately. Help your students stretch to their limits, and tell them that you believe theyre capable of anything to which they put their minds. Dont be afraid to make your students a little bit uncomfortable. This is where true growth happens. Bring up examples of people who never gave up. There are many prominent figures to reference people who persevered in spite of roadblocks and achieved their goals.

Share with your students that their abilities can be developed with effort, and teach them to continuously seek out new knowledge. Encourage them to embrace challenges, not to shy away from them. This helps your students stick to things even when they get hard. Persistence is essential for long-term student success. Make your classroom one where students feel safe to take risks, push themselves, and make mistakes and learn from them. They will grow as students and people as a result.

5 Benefits of Earning a Masters Degree Online

5 Benefits of Earning a Master's Degree Online GRE/MAT Graduate School Blog Master’s degrees are becoming increasingly common, and it’s not hard to see why. In some fields, an advanced degree is necessary for even entry-level jobs, and for others, like STEM fields, it can mean an even higher salary, more and better prospects and more exciting work. But, it’s also not hard to see why many professionals are reluctant to take the plunge into traditional graduate school. Doing so means leaving the workforce, moving to a new city and going into tens of thousands of dollars of debt. For many, online master’s programs solve these problems. They make it possible to earn the same degree on your own schedule, without leaving home. Here’s why so many people are choosing to go back to grad school online. 1. It’s Cheaper When we say that earning your master’s online is cheaper, we don’t mean that these programs charge lower tuition fees. In most cases, tuition is just as expensive as for traditional programs. But, you save a lot of the incidental costs that go along with returning to school, such as those associated with moving to be close to campus, renting an apartment, and commuting to classes. While you might not be able to get a graduate or teaching assistantship to offset the cost of tuition, there’s a solid chance your employer will be willing to reimburse you for the cost of your tuition if you go back to school online. This is especially common among companies hiring STEM professionals, where a master’s degree is becoming increasingly sought-after. You’ll be able to enjoy the higher salary that comes with having earned a Master’s in Biochemical Engineering However, you’ll earn that degree at a steep discount if you pursue it online. 2. It’s More Flexible One of the major reasons we encourage students to consider an online GRE tutor vs. an in-person option is flexibility, and it’s a similar story when you are considering pursuing your graduate school studies. You can study where you want, when you want, as long as you meet your assignment deadlines. That means you’ll be able to keep working full-time, stay in your home and community and spend time with your family. 3. You’ll Form a More Diverse Network Part of the benefit of attending graduate school is building a network. Conventional wisdom may be that you give this up when pursuing an online degree program. And it may be true it’s harder to build lasting relationships when you don’t meet your classmates in person. But in fact, you’ll build a different type of network. In a traditional graduate school program, you tend to meet people who are at a place in their lives where they can still tear up stakes and move to a new city to attend a university program for a couple of years. These programs are mostly populated by young professionals with just a few years of work experience. But online master’s programs appeal to an older, more experienced set. People from all walks of life, and at all points in their careers, enroll in online master’s programs. Plus, because you don’t need to get a student visa or move locations to attend these programs, they appeal to students from all over the world. You’ll meet classmates of all ages, from all walks of life and from a wide range of cultures and countries. 4. You’ll Build Virtual Collaboration Skills As the work we do becomes increasingly connected and increasingly dependent on a range of virtual communications technologies, it’s important to become familiar with a variety of virtual collaboration tools. As an online master’s student, you’ll need to use video chat and video conferencing tools, shared cloud drive tools like DropBox and collaboration tools like Google Drive to communicate with classmates and professors virtually and complete assignments in a timely manner. You’ll come out the other end with a new sense of confidence and competence in virtual collaboration. 5. You’ll Build Self-discipline and Time Management Skills While this can be said of just about any master’s program, an online master’s program can require students to be even more self-disciplined because they’re often juggling a range of other commitments. You’ll need to learn how to use your time wisely and how to prioritize. These skills are extremely sought after by employers, and in fact, having built them during an online degree program is something you can and should talk about during future interviews. Summary Going to grad school online can be a great solution for working adults who want a master’s degree without all the hassle of upending their lives and quitting their jobs. It’s becoming an increasingly accepted form of graduate study, and we encourage more individuals to consider online degree programs.

Will I Ever Need Math in The Real World

Will I Ever Need Math in The Real World Students often question the usefulness of algebra and express various objections. I dont need algebra, because Im not going to college. Yes. Maybe. But is it worth it to limit future prospects and opportunities? Can you say, that your child will not be an accountant or manager of a construction company? Can you say in advance that interest in science will not wake up when you are older? At an older age, it will be harder to fill the gaps of knowledge. Many students wonder why they have to learn logarithms and differentials. Of course examples and solving the problems very can be difficult. But this is the way we need to pass through, so the childs brain will be able to cope with lifes challenges, to be able to find solutions on their own. Every day we use math. From a simple order of fast food to larger transactions(buying a car, the calculation of interest on a loan or deposit). Mathematics is the only true universal language. Wherever you go, you can chat with people from all walks of life, and they cannot understand you when you say Math. In terms of numbers or math can help anyone to perform daily tasks and to develop appropriate solutions.
