Class Experience

  • To give the student some experience playing the ukelele and getting comfortable with strumming. To introduce the student to a couple of basic, beginner chords, depending on their age and level. To practice playing on the individual strings and alternating between the strings. Practicing basic strumming. The student will be able to hold the ukelele correctly. They will understand what each of the hands do, when playing chords. They will be able to strum some basic, beginner rhythm patterns.
Since May of 2020, I have been an Outschool teacher. 
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. 
My bachelor's degree is in music education, from Towson University, plus graduate studies in music education.

I will ask that you tune the ukelele before class. I recommend Uke Buddy online tuner. I will send the link for you, to your  Outschool  messages. 
You can also use an electronic tuner, if you have one. 
Please message me, if you have any questions about Uke Buddy or tuning the ukelele. 
Occasionally I may play a song that we are going to learn, on YouTube. This is to give the student a feel for the beat of the song and how the song goes, before we learn it.
