Downloadable lesson index?

    Hi there, and thank you for this great resource.   I have a suggestion that I think would make it even better.  This is, clearly, much more than a 30-day resource; I think it's a tool that could prove useful for several years.  Because of the amount of material in here, it would be helpful to have some kind of organizing factor for users. 

    One option would be to let users rate lessons by their usefulness, linked to their own account so they could find their way back to favorites, like the classic 5-star rating system.

    An even simpler way to do the same thing would be to create an editable PDF index, consisting of categories, individual courses within those categories, and then individual lessons within each course, we could download a copy, and make notes within that index to guide ourselves around, and to assist us in planning our journey through the site, and perhaps find some hidden jewels--creating a linear map through the site.  

    I, for one, would appreciate it, and I would expect there are others who would find this useful as well. 

    Or perhaps there's such a thing already, and I haven't stumbled across it . . . ?

    It doesn't exist, but that's a fantastic idea! And I agree, it would be helpful to "rank" lessons in order of difficulty, especially for beginning singers (moving on from the beginner courses). In planning these lessons, I try to make everything as beginner-friendly as possible, but of course some lessons will prove more difficult than others. I'll forward this suggestion to the team. Thanks, Kathleen!

    Hi Camille,

    Thank you for your reply.  After I messaged you, I thought, "Well, I can do that," and began the process using a mind-mapping program called Inspiration.  Instead of a linear map, it's in a `bubble map' format.  Nice features: I can insert hotlinks to the various lessons, notes to jog my memory, and color code the lessons to give myself a cue about levels, `gems', etc., and also convert it to an outline form if I want to re-arrange them, or just see them in a linear format. 

    It's a work in progress . . . :)
