ChordMate in Use

Teachers

Nothing beats a one-on-one session with an experienced teacher. ChordMate helps you make the most of the time you and your students have together.

  • E-Mail Homework. Ever heard the story of the student who really meant to practice this week, only he couldn't because he forgot how all the chords went? Yeah, so have we. That's why ChordMate lets you export chord diagrams to create beautiful chord progressions in your favorite text editor, like WordPad or PowerPoint. You students don't even have to purchase ChordMate -- the chord progression will be waiting for them in their Inbox when they get home!
  • Arrange Songs. Figuring out how to play a song well is hard enough, but as a teacher, you also have to make the arrangement sufficiently simple (or challenging!) for your students. ChordMate can help. You can work together with your students to try out different chords until you find just the right ones.
  • Explore Chord Shapes. You and your students can compare different chord shapes using the Chord Types tool. You can compare formulas, diagrams, and sounds!
  • Prepare Ahead. Sometimes you find yourself playing the same song ten different ways with ten different students. You can save those chord progressions for later use -- and reuse. It sure beats starting from scratch when a student opens a songbook and says, "I want to play this."

In short, ChordMate is a great tool for guitar teachers!
