COLUMNIST: Peter Metcalfe on Gigajam

It was a Saturday morning when I saw an advert for Gigajam. Brain and his team have created a learning process that is quite unique.
The benefits of his system include:-
– You choose to play and learn when you want (day or night).
– Being in the comfort of your own home (no need to go out in the rain).
– The low cost, and you choose your own pace.
– Instant feedback on your lesson.

There are more than 76 primary schools, where 500 children a week are learning with Gigajam.
If you ever wanted to play guitar, keyboard, drums or bass, hours of encouragement and leaning are on the end of the mouse.
I have found the lessons and steps to learning simple to follow and all in bite-size chunks. You can repeat your lesson as much as you need to (in my case loads of times).

I signed up just before Christmas to a whole new hobby. It’s such fun and without all the pressure.
I hope I have inspired one or two of you to check it out. I’m off now for a well deserved cup of tea. Cheers!
