Assessment
An assessment of each student will be offered as a take-home assignment if requested by the parent. This assessment will be based off of the child ability to play chords, stay on tempo when playing, and their ability to accompany themselves as they sing.

Class Experience

Have a young learner who is passionate about music and wants to play their favorite songs? This is the summer camp for you! Over the course of our three meetings, your student will learn how to play a full song on the ukulele! By the end of the week, they will be ready to give their own mini-concert by singing and playing their song. 

CLASS STRUCTURE: 
In our time together, learners will spend their time growing in their ukulele skills, learning new chords, working on playing on tempo with a song, and learning to accompany themselves with an instrument. By the end of our time, they will be able to play a full song and sing it themselves. 

Throughout our classes, students will learn to play the Verse, Chorus, and Bridge of our song. They will then learn how to sing along with their playing. 


I have a bubbly, bright, and fun personality, and I love to spend time connecting with kids to help them grow. It is one of my greatest joys to get to teach. Teaching music classes is near to my heart, as I remember being a young student eager to learn more about the very thing I loved most, music. I desire to only grow that love in our students as they learn new things musically.

Learning Goals

Students will improve in their ukulele playing, learning new chords, strumming patterns, and tempos.

My Teaching Style: 
My goal as a teacher is to make each student feel seen, loved, appreciated, and encouraged throughout our class time. I desire each student to leave class feeling better and brighter than when they logged in. I believe in positive encouragement, and helping my students find their confidence in who they are, along with making sure they have fun during our time together. 
I graduated with a bachelor's in Psychology, specifically focused on adolescent Psychology.  Bringing this information into my classrooms helps me to connect with the students, grow their social abilities, understand where they are within their formative years, and create a more inviting and safe environment for every student to learn.
