I'm confused about what exactly I'm supposed to practice. Is it C major on all strings starting from all the notes in the scale playing and saying one note at a time and then singing with solfege? Or is it just playing and saying the notes on each string in C?

Just watched lesson 4 last night, I believe it's learning the notes on the fretboard. Using the C major scale - find and learn the notes on each string.

If you start from each string, the scale will start somewhere in between. It helps to write the C major scale pattern down, C D E F G A B C - they are 2 frets between each note except between E F, and B C.

The solfege helps, at least for me in ear training. C Do, D Re.. I could hear the color tones singing solfege and playing the corresponding notes.

So back to your questions, break it down to learning notes on the B string first. Move on to the next string, etc.. say the note, sing the solfege. Get them under your fingers, so much so that if someone says - where's C on the G string? And your finger goes straight to the 5th fret. Something like that 😉

My humble opinions, cheers~
