~ Please make sure that students need to have a TUNED ukulele for each class. Please make sure you tune your ukulele for this class https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2VOuRBjmzAM&t=9s

~ Learners can use a pick, but it is not compulsory; I actually recommend the use of fingers for strumming/picking.

~ In order for me to give feedback and see clearly the learner while playing their instrument, please make sure you position the learners, so I can see their BOTH hands when playing, head to the waist, in a well-lit room (the light coming from their front, not from the back). The young learner can sit on the floor, with their legs crossed. If they are joining from an iPad/laptop, they can also be on the floor or a little stool, it can point straight or downwards.

~ Please note that the learner can't sit on an armchair as this will restrict the way their instrument needs to be positioned and also restricts the movement of the learner's arms. A chair with no arms, or a stool are recommended. BOTH learner's feet should be on the floor, not hanging.

~ Please feel free to send me a message if you have any questions or concerns.

~ The teacher will provide the songs and other files (strumming and chords sheets);
~ Ukulele (Soprano or Concert Standard tuning G  C  E  A)
~ Ukulele Tuner App 

In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Youtube - HOw to tune your ukulele

~ Young learners will experience music making (with and without the ukulele), practise musical games, imitation, identifying right and left hands through games, counting the ukulele strings and their fingers that go on the fret of the ukulele. Turn-taking and waiting for one's turn skills will be reinforced along with performing in front of others and working as a team, collaborating and showing appreciation for other players in the group.

~ I recommend a grown-up to be in the room and assist the young learner. Outschool policy is that only the enrolled students should be on camera, but the grown-up can be off-camera and assist when needed, please.

~ This ukulele beginners class is enjoyable, interactive and learning is happening combined with lots of fun and giggles. I look forward to meeting you in class, singing and playing with you!
