G chord was the one that frustrated me most when I started learning how to play an ukulele. Actually it made me search on youtube and find your channel :D Now after a month I can switch between basic chords and I am amazed by the transition *_* Your videos helped me a lot so I’m very grateful to you! Btw, the way you excercised reminded me of the app - Yousician - I was using very often when I first started learning. Do you know about it? I find it very helpful espceially for a pure beginner.

As a beginner, I am trying to learn riptide, and the F to G is really helping me find that out. If I use my index finger for Am, I can add middle finger, move index down a string, and then add the ring finger. Idk if you should use index for Am but it works for. Os

Smart to demo with the metronome, Bernadette! Music is like comedy; to be really good at it, a person has to master the timing. And super-smart to advise people to always think ahead. I use ukulele to teach creative writing (because it’s easy to sing while strumming an ukulele and writing song lyrics forces people to think of writing as what it is-not recorded thought, but recorded sound). So, as a first step, it’s necessary to teach most of my students some fundamentals of playing ukulele. Today, I showed a lady how to play G7-Em7-G (a chord progression that shows up in early Beatles songs such as “Love Me Do”) by first playing G7 conventionally, then lifting the index finger to play Em7, and then setting down the pinky to finish with G. It is an exercise that offers an instant reward: three chords! Woo-hoo! It is also an exercise that involves all four fingers. Plus it plants the idea that, sometimes, you can use an unconventional fingering to quickly switch to a commonly used chord. And it’s fun!
@BernadetteTeachesMusic6 жыл бұрын
Hi Tom! It's always really nice to hear from other teachers because I pick up new learning techniques and strategies. I LOVE what you are doing with your creative writing students! They are lucky to be learning from an artist and poet like yourself! If you're using a metronome with your students and you'd like something more engaging than a metronome, try this kzbin.info/www/bejne/bn-zY4GriNiKmNU this is what I use with my students when the metronome feels too dull. I like your G7-Em-G exercise!!! That's also good for stretching the hand and using the pinky! I might have to borrow that ;) And you are right. Music and comedy are all about the timing. I guess this is why I always like comedians who have a good beat to their voice :)

You are sooooo good at breaking things down. First time tried to play uke quit. Now I'm teaching myself with multiple teachers on you tube. You are at the top of my list. Learning a fingerpicking technique for Auld Lang Syne. Couldn't make the switch from C to G. Went to you tube. Found this video. So great. My new method of learning is to try to really know something before moving on. So for the next couple of days I'll work on switching from C to G based I what I learned in this video. Because that can become boring, each day I also work on learning a strumming technique and to reward myself I try to learn a blues lesson - because I really love that. Thank you for all your great videos. They are integral to my learning. I'll be 74 in March.

This is SUUUUPER helpful. One thing I struggle with learning on my own is a lot of videos/ books etc. Go from "this is how you play C chord" go on now let's play this song with three chords and never cover tips for building the skills. THIS really covers the skill drills necessary. When I learned piano, cello, and sax as a kid / tween so much of the early stuff was scales and skill drills. So far, I haven't found as much for uke. I know... only 4 strings so simple, but not really! Lol. Currently also trying to get the hand strength to not have "fly away fingerss" to properly make some of the chords, I need to use the free fingers as leverage (or so it seems). Thank you for this!

When you transition between chords it appears that the fingers on your left hand all leave the neck. Is the neck of your ukulele resting between your left thumb and index finger, or are you clamping your ukulele in position with your right forearm? I find this to be the hardest part of chord transitions; moving my fingers without feeling like the neck of my ukulele will drop.
@SusanWang1264 жыл бұрын
I wish there was a response to this because I am having a difficult time with this! I thought we were supposed to have our thumbs on the back of the neck but then nothing is "clamping" the ukelele in place if I am also strumming with the index finger and not holding the waist. Forearm clamping isn't working to keep it in place. I have to rely on a strap to be able to transition. Did you find a solution, since this comment is 2 years old and I just started today? haha
@sud_monkey4 жыл бұрын
@@SusanWang126 As far as I can tell some chord transitions don’t happen in one movement. For example, if I was transitioning from C to F my 3rd finger would remain on the A string’s 3rd fret while my 1st finger moves to the E string’s 1st fret. Then my 3rd finger comes off, my hand pivots, and my 2nd finger moves to the G string’s 2nd fret. This way the neck is always clamped between thumb and a finger. Of course, I don’t if this is the correct way to do it!

This is a wonderful, thorough explanation that beginners will benefit from a lot! I think I'm gonna implement the metronome technique into my practice for other chord changes I struggle with or that just don't sound very clean. Gonna test my patience but I probably need it! 😄 And you look so tan in this video, it suits you so well! Like in your first videos 😁

Hey Luisa! I have a solution for you. 😊 If you think the metronome is a little boring, use drum loops! They make them at all speeds and styles and they're really fun to play along to. Try this one kzbin.info/www/bejne/oZ3WfXh6a7OJoNU

Is it ok to do the g chord in a different pattern? I find it easier to put the index instead of the middle on the 4th string of the second fret. And the middle finger on the second string. I inverse those two fingers.

Can someone tell me where you’re holding the instrument while switching from Fm to G? Can’t hold it with the strumming hand and the instrument would get dropped while switching cords if I didn’t use the edge of my pointing finger which slows everything down.
