Music Class for Beginners: Play Surf on Your Ukulele! (Ages 8+)

In this 4 session self-paced music class, beginning ukulele students will learn to play the popular song "Surf"!

Course Summary

This 4 session class includes four videos approximately 20 minutes long. Students will receive chords for each section and a complete 1 page sheet for "Surf". No prior knowledge is required, but the students need to already have their ukuleles tuned to the notes G, C, E and A. I have taught this song to dozens of students! It is a perfect "first song" to play on the ukulele because it easy to play but sounds very impressive, especially when played fast.

I like the flexibility of the class. The material was helpful and easy to understand. Ms. April was fun and taught the class well. I recommend this class for a beginner in learning the ukulele.

The teacher did a good job of breaking down the concepts. There was a sensible progression (and added difficulty) each week, and it did take 4 weeks to learn all the concepts to play the whole song. A flex class was a good option for a beginner. My son was able to stop and replay the lessons while we practiced to work on the technique. He also really enjoyed the short one-on-one live session with teacher.
