Description

Class Experience

During these classes we will start with the basics of the history of the Ukulele, the parts of the ukulele, stings names, the 4 basic chords C, A minor, F, and G, and most importantly learning how fun it is to strum and play the instrument. This is an introductory class for younger students and no prior experience is required. 
Lesson 1 - Students will learn the history of the Ukulele and basic parts of the ukulele.  We will learn the names of the strings and how to strum the ukulele. 
Lesson...

By the end of this class, students will have the knowledge they need to play  songs using the different chords and techniques. Students will have learned techniques on their level since each class is differentiated for each class.

I have been teaching for 17 years,  I have a passion for music and love to teach it to beginning students.  Music opens so many possibilities and Ukuleles are an easy instrument to learn.  You can learn something one day and be able to play it right away.  I teach   PreK-5th grade general music and art,  This  including learning pitched and non pitched instruments, music history, movement, and ukulele.

Practice the techniques and chords between classes, Practice every day even if it is for just 15 min. you have to build up stamina and with a fast course you can only get better by practicing the skills that we have learned in class.

I will provide the information and chord finger positions and all they need is a ukulele and the willingness to learn something new every day.  There are many free apps that you can download to help tune your ukulele.  I use Ukulele Tuner app and it would be great if you could tune the ukulele before class. We will talk about tuning the first class so after that class they should be able to tune the ukulele before the rest of the classes.

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

Visually I will assess the proper way to hold the ukulele,  strumming fingers, and correct hand positions for chords.

3 hours per week in class, and an estimated 1 - 2 hours per week outside of class.
