Ukulele for Improvers
Hythe Library
Tuesday 14th, 21st, 28th January, 4th and 11th February 2025
10.00am to 11.00am
Continue your musical journey with a ukulele improvers course.
Learning Goals:
- Increase your chord knowledge
- Play a wider range of songs on the ukulele, including pop and country
- Improve your strumming and finger picking
- Play songs using 3 and 4 chords
Who is this course for: The course is for those who have completed the beginners’ course or are at a similar stage in their learning. You will be able to enjoy playing more challenging songs and learn new chords.
Previous knowledge or experience: Learners should have ideally completed Ukulele for Beginners
How will I learn: Participants will learn more chords including barre chords, new finger picking patterns and develop their strumming techniques using a ‘pick’. You will learn to play a wider range of songs including pop and country.
How will I be assessed: Tutor observation, playing the ukulele
What shall I bring: Learners will need to bring their own ukulele and be able to play some basic chords in the open position. All learning materials will be provided.
Next steps: This course could lead to further ukulele classes such as the Learning in Libraries’ Fingerpicking on the Ukulele course or membership of a local group. The chord fingerings of the ukulele are like those used on the guitar but much easier to manage, so this course could also be seen as a step towards playing the guitar
