Make the instrument playable

Tune before practice and check that your seating and hand position are comfortable. If the strings are unusually hard to press, a qualified technician can assess setup. Excess force is not a practice plan.

Practise a clean change

Choose two chords and switch slowly while keeping rhythm steady. Stop to correct the shape instead of repeating a rushed error. A few focused minutes can beat a long unfocused session.

Use a short song section to connect technique with music. Record yourself occasionally and listen for timing, not only missed notes. Increase tempo after the phrase feels reliable.
