This is a group lesson for ukulele players for beginners. The topics that are covered in the session depend on the learners experience with ukulele. I work with all ages by giving them encouragement and the confidence to continue playing the ukulele. The lessons can be student-driven if there are any specific songs they are interested or excited to learn. Week 1 February 26 Students will learn - the parts of the ukulele - how to hold the ukulele - best techniques for pushing down strings - a one-string song Week 2 March 4 Students will learn - how to play the C and Am chords - how to strum - a simple strumming pattern Week 3 March 11 Students will learn - how to play the F chord - a simple song using three chords - more practice with strumming techniques Week 4 March 18 Students will learn - how to play the G chord - how to play a new song with four chords - more practice with strumming techniques - rhythm and dynamics

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree from Grand Valley State University
I live with my husband in a wooden yurt on our farm near the mountains in Colorado. We are both music and writing teachers on Outschool. He teaches guitar as well as the instruments that I teach! His name is Steven Middendorp. I have been teaching ukulele on Outschool for about four years now and I love that I get to teach what I am so passionate about! The classes I teach include ukulele, banjo, general music, farming/gardening classes, and English classes. I have my bachelors degree in Sociology and three years experience teaching English as a second language. I have 7 years experience in gardening and taking care of farm animals. I believe learning should be fun and should be tailored to students as individuals with their individual gifts and challenges.Reviews
