Dear Bernadette, my grandaughter (12) had the chance to try ukulele at school and she loved it. Now she wants her own uke for Christmas, but because Christmas is still years away in that age, I have borrowed her one of my ukes until she has her own. I have recommended your channel to her and her parents, as I have learned everything I know about uke playing from you. However, I haven't played in a while, but my grandaughter starting now, I have started playing again. This tutorial here, is what I recommended to her for this evening, as it's only one hour long and incorporates most things and it's a great refresher for me.

You know, the little details that others don't talk about and which are super important, finally for me (Position of the body, of the arm, of the wrist , fingers, hukulele, foot stool etc). Nothing is forgotten. You have a delicacy and the patience to learn that others don't. Thank you for all that, thank you for giving of yourself in each video.

I love this long lesson! It felt like 20 min to me. I searched for your videos again after becoming discouraged about learning Bm. Please continue making more videos like this one for the rest of the notes! Your teaching style is quality👌

😮 I am 75 yrs and just discovered your ukulele beginner's one hr tutorial. I totally have no knowledge of playing the ukelele until your class. You are so patient and gentle in your teaching. I really enjoy it. Thank you.

I'm 70 and my wife is 68 and we're both getting ready to learn ukes together. I've played stringed instruments since high school but she's a true beginner. I bought her the Ohana CK-14-CL based on your description of how "it just sings...wooh", also I really liked the Hibiscus flower inlay in the fingerboard. I appreciate your emphasis on strumming hand technique and general ergonomics, thanks, and cheers.

Hi Bernadette, I am 46 years old, live in Germany and just started last Monday. That's my first instrument I learn. I tried different Apps and a few videos, but wasn't quite happy. This video actually helped me a lot. Especially with the cord changes. Thanks so much. Your video got me so much ahead. I definitely try the challenge.

I’m 74 years old and live in the US. I played clarinet in school and tried playing the keyboard a couple years ago. I had a really hard time learning how to do that and quit. It did help introduce me to chords. Clarinets don’t play chords. I really enjoy how you present the material and at such a good pace. This is the best beginner ukulele video I’ve tried. Your concentration in curriculum really made a difference! Thanks so much!!!!!
