Familiarizing yourself with the guitar fretboard is important for any beginner classical guitarist. You will rarely be required, in the initial stages, to move outside of the first position on the guitar fretboard (the first three frets).
I’m getting a lot of messages from people coming here because they want to learn to play guitar as part of worship. If this is you, you might want to join Aaron Anastasi’s programme. Aaron is a musician and a worship leader. He put together a step by step programme for aspiring Christian musicians. If you're interested, you can use the exercises and advice in to develop your finger strength and dexterity and Aaron's lessons to work on strumming and worship music.
The first step is to become familiar with notes in the first position of the guitar fretboard. Provided on the diagram below are the notes in the first position of the fretboard (includes frets 1, 2 and 3), notes in the second position of the fretboard (includes frets 2, 3 and 4) and notes in the third position in of the guitar fretboard (includes frets 3, 4 and 5).

The names of the notes at the open strings, in standard tuning are tuned to the notes E, A, G, B and E going from the lowest string (6th string) to the highest string (1st string). The 6th string is generally called the lowest string or the bottom E (even though it is on top of the other strings) because the sound that it makes is lower than the E on the 1st string which (even though it is at the bottom of all the strings) is called the top E.
Later you will include the second position and thereafter all other positions. The complete notes of the guitar can be found in Frederick Noad, Solo Guitar Playing which is reproduced in full in the diagram below.
Frederick Noad's, Solo Guitar Playing is one of the best books for a beginner guitarist to buy and I would absolutely recommend that you get a copy. In fact, I generally use this book almost exclusively for the first 3 to 6 months of my lessons with students.

How to Tune your Guitar: How to tune your guitar. There is nothing worse than playing on an untuned guitar. This page teaches you how to tune your guitar with and without an electronic tuner.
Guitar Parts: Start by becoming familiar with the parts of the guitar so that you know what we're talking about when we talk about the bridge or the fret.
You'll need to go a little deeper into music theory as you proceed. The best online resource for this is Guitar Theory Revolution. It recognises that music theory is very hard for guitarists because music theory has till now been located in the piano paradigm. The Guitar Theory Revolution overthrows the piano paradigm that is holding you back and embraces the attributes of the guitar to unpack music theory. In fact, it goes further and allows you to see that the guitar is one of the best instruments for learning theory.

A Deeper Dive Into The Guitar Fretboard
This section shows the notes on a guitarist's fretboard, shown with 24 frets (two octaves). Guitars and their necks are designed in many styles and lengths, each with a different numbers of frets. It is good to know how many frets your guitar has, as it tells you what notes your guitar can play up to. Ignore what you can not play, play what is in your range well and with confidence. This chart shows the middle C (C in the fourth octave) on a piano and where it is located on a guitar.
Knowing where the middle C (the fourth octave C on a Grand piano) is on a guitar is a powerful tool. It helps both in working with a pianist and when trying to read sheet music. A Guitarist can play the middle C on five of their six guitar strings. The middle C is located on the twentieth fret of the 6th string, the fifteenth fret of the 5th string, the tenth fret of the 4th string, the fifth fret of the 3rd string, and the first fret of the 2nd string. Other octave Cs are also shown in the above chart.
This section of charts shows the notes in the Key of C Major, the white keys on a piano, as they appear in a Grand Staff and on the guitar neck. These notes are the natural C, D, E, F, G, A, and B. Sharps and flats are represented on a piano with black keys. Note that there is no sharp or flat between a B and a C, and an E and an F. This fact is easier to learn on piano (where it may seem obvious) than it is on guitar (where frets are neither black nor white, but all a bit grey), so that a pianist many wonder why I point some things out, and the guitarist will say, Oh, now I understand..., so I repeat myself, but music does repeat itself, over and over again. I hope to teach new guitarists this. When playing guitar, one may play any of the possible notes, but different guitar stings have different sounds. It is you, the guitarist, who must choose which place on a fretboard you like best, which is the easiest and enjoyable for you.
