From Tim C.

1 session available for $159.96

Subject: Seattle Ukulele Lessons

The way Lessons work with me is that I will start by asking you questions to get an idea of your musical background (if any) and an idea of what music you like to listen to. I will then ask questions about your musical goals (if any) to try to cater a lesson plan to what you with to accomplish. My first rule is that music should be enjoyable, I believe that the only way to improve is to want to improve. Depending on the length of the lesson there will be different activities and points of focus each week. Some things I focus on no matter what your goals are.....

Rhythm decoding, subdividing, and general understanding.

Ear training (chord quality, pitch matching, easy transcription)

History (how has this instrument been used before?)

Techniques specific to the styles you want to learn.

I always attempt to introduce students to new music and to get them excited about writing their own music through various exercises. (some students are more interested than others)

I never get angry or frustrated when students don't practice, I just walk them through an organized practice session so that they can see how much improvement in possible in 20 minutes (it's actually amazing)

My goal is to inspire people to play their instrument because as all good music teachers know...

THE ONLY WAY TO GET BETTER IS TO PLAY YOUR INSTRUMENT... I SWEAR.
