If, after watching it, you still have unanswered questions, feel free to reach out.

Being efficient with your practice is even more important if you have limited time, and it is 100% possible to make steady progress with very short practice sessions as long as you're consistent.

I don't even know any songs or exercises to practice. Should I learn some first? I don't even know any songs or exercises to practice. Should I learn some first?
