I welcome learners of all identities and backgrounds into my classes. This is a Beginner level class, so we will start with the basics of how to hold and play the ukelele. We will go over what to do with each hand, including how to press the strings to the fret, and how to pluck and strum with the right hand....
The student will be able to play a few simple songs on one string. They will learn the basics of holding and playing the instrument. The student will understand steady beat and tempo, and begin to be able to hold the steady beat while they play an instrument. They will understand the difference between a melody and chords ( harmony). The student will learn the note names of the ukelele strings. They will see how to tune the strings and learn what the string names are. They will practice playing chords and strumming to a steady beat.
I have been an Outschool teacher since May 2020. I have 20+ years experience, as a music teacher. I have taught piano, electric keyboard, guitar, and general music classes, in both the classroom and private settings. I was head of the music department at a private high school in Maryland. I taught private piano and guitar lessons at a guitar shop, for 5 years, in addition to my own private students in my studio.
Homework Offered
I will post the song sheets in the classroom for the student to use to practice. I recommend 15-20 minutes of practice , at least three times per week.1 - 2 hours per week outside of class

Ukelele
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
I will occasionally use youtube to play a song for the class, so that they can hear what the song sounds like. Uke Buddy is the online ukelele tuner that I recommend, so that you can have your instrument tuned before each class. I will help out at the beginning of the first class with tuning, but please do your best to have the student's instrument tuned, because it takes up a lot of class time for me to tune each instrument over zoom by ear, individually.
