No experience necessary. Students require a ukulele for this class. In this four day camp, students will have fun learning the basics of playing the ukulele. Students will learn how to hold the ukulele. Students will learn the names of the strings. Students will learn to clap and strum simple rhythmic patterns. We will learn one finger chords for young beginners (C and F). We will practice singing and playing children's songs (Mary Had a Little Lamb and Row Row Row Your Boat). I will demonstrate the chords and songs. Parents - I recommend you attend the lesson with your child and assist them with posture and finger placement. Please make sure to help your child tune their ukulele before each class. There are many great tuning apps available. My favorite is called GuitarTuna. If you need assistance, please let me know and I would be happy to meet before class to assist with tuning. I recommend that students sit on a chair for the lesson. For this age group, I recommend that a parent sits beside their child (off camera) and assists them during the lesson.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello, I'm Siobhan! A versatile and passionate human interested in continuing to learn and grow throughout life's journey. I spent nine years living in Thailand working as a professional musician and private music teacher. For five of those years, I ran my own business, a music school, where I gained valuable experience and a versatile skill set. Just before the pandemic, I was traveling and developing new skills including cooking gourmet vegetarian food, managing a kitchen, managing social media pages, video editing as well as completing my 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training Course. During the pandemic, I began creating music classes that are specifically designed to be delivered online. In my spare time, I enjoy cooking, reading, travel, and practicing music.Reviews
