Teaching Ukulele for Beginners- Learn a New Skill!

The ukulele is a great instrument to learn, no matter how old or young you are! With the capability to be both a beginner's instrument and a more advanced one, learning to play the ukulele is a great skill to have for aspiring musicians and those who wish to engage the creative sides of their brains a little more! The ukulele is also a great stepping stone to playing the guitar, due to the knowledge that you gain of the skills needed to progress.

In my lessons, you will learn simple chords and finger placements, as well as some basic songs that you can play with the same three or four chords! You will learn how to play different types of chords, which can be played in several different ways depending on your personal preference and ability, and after practising these chords, I will teach you some songs that can be played and evolved with the knowledge you have gained. Additionally, I will teach you to read music at a basic level, and I will teach the simple steps you can take to remembering the names and placements of notes on the manuscripts (the term used for the type of paper where musical notes are written).

This is a great lesson, for children and teenagers alike, that I hope you will enjoy!

About Me

Whilst I have no professional tutoring experience in music, I have a combined 13 years' experience in playing the ukulele and guitar, having had a few years of professional tuition in guitar and going on to be self-taught in both instruments after this, which has helped me to both grasp the basic skills in these string instruments but also to gain confidence in performing them.

Education

Nine GCSEs in grades 5-9 (C-A**), in subjects including the core qualifications (English Lit/Language, Maths, Science), RE and Health & Social Care.
A-Levels in grades ABB, in Psychology, Health & Social Care and Art History.
Currently studying a History degree with honours at a great university, local to me.

Experience / Qualifications

7 years' guitar-playing experience.
6 years' ukulele-playing experience.
At least two years' professional tuition from a leading guitar teacher in my area.
