Speeding up

I was wondering, are there any exercises or tools to speed up your fingering… I have recently made it to module 6, but my playing doesnt seem to get faster

Speed comes with developing fingers muscle memory and practicing over time. Don’t be in a hurry.

You’re learning several new physical and theoretical things right now. The brain and body need time to process and ultimately implement everything you need to know and do to play.

Short answer: All will come given time, practice and a positive attitude.

Yep

Pick any riff / passage really and use a metronome, increase by 1-2bpm at a time until you can play it perfectly multiple times. Rinse and repeat.

Sometimes when I’m learning a tough part of a song I’ll go faster than the tune a bit to really nail it into my fingers.

It’s very rote learning. Over and over and over and over and over…..
