Hi Lisa,
Thank you for your videos. I am self teaching, bought my Ukulele 6 years ago, now have the time in my life to practice in-between work. I am 57 and firmly believe you can teach old dogs new tricks! I love your warmth and encouragement. So thank you from the bottom of my heart. Loraine South Australia
South Australia!!! I have had another student from that part of the world. He introduced me to the song - Santa Bring Me a Dinosaur. I did a tutorial for it. Good luck on your ukulele adventures. I took up the ukulele when I was in my 50's. So glad I can help you on your ukulele journey.
I couldn't agree more! Just got my uke and have no musical training at all but I am loving the sound and beauty of this instrument. Can't wait to learn more. So since we are telling our age, I am 61 and starting my Ukulele journey from Houston, TX. Thank you Lisa!!
you are amazing, as a beginner I just want to say that I love love love love your songs and I can not wait to practice then as soon as I get the know of your strumming.
I'm glad I can help you with your ukulele journey! Strumming is a challenge. I am putting out a tutorial on Sunday - 2 chords with a Bum-Ditty strum to help folks master that.
Such fun! I'm new to Ukulele so very much enjoy this clear and helpful video. Plus, how generous of you to give us a free PDF ! Thanks so much.
You are so welcome! Thanks for letting me know.
I feel like I've had a light bulb moment it finally makes sense after watching this video I actually sound good and know when to feel the chord change
I’m so glad that I was able to help you on your Ukulele journey. Thanks for letting me know.
Thank you for a delightful tutorial. I’ll be getting students started at a music appreciation workshop and you gave me super ideas. 😀👏👍
Glad I could help. I have taught college level music appreciation for a long time. You might want to take a look at my oddball approach to topics - mus200x.community.uaf.edu/
You are wonderful!! Thank you for this tutorial. Best I have seen by far!!
Wow, thank you!
I couldn't agree more!!! Your teaching style is the BEST!
Really very nice . Thanks and many greetings from Morocco 🇲🇦
Thank you very much! Morocco is on my bucket list of places to go. I had a patron who now lives in Fez.
Welcome . I love the moroccan tradion and modernity . I hope you can realize this dream very soon. Bring enough time with .

Thank you Lisa for this uplifting, easy to follow tutorial. I really appreciated seeing what chord was coming up next and I loved imitating your happy engaging singing style (I felt like I received a performance & energy tutorial as well). Thanks for sharing your gifts and including “In the Middle”. It was just what I needed to hear🙏☺️❤
Mahalo & Aloha,

I just played Peace Like A River on the 100 Day Ukulele Challenge with inspiration from you.

Oh thank you!
That was fun. Good exercise!
Glad you liked it. I'll be doing another one like this very soon with the Do-wap chord progression.
I bought a cheap little ukulele today on impulse and I'm learning the basics. This will be a fun way to practice my chords. Definitely stealing that command hook trick too. 😂
So glad I could help you on your ukulele journey.
I love your shirt. ❤
I do too - I have a uke friend that makes them - www.etsy.com/shop/JodiDamonDyes
You really are a super star legend ❤ I’ve said it before I’m sure

What an amazing video !¡! Going to get a ukelele trying to play guitar but this looks such fun!!!!
Go for it! The ukulele is so much more accessible and the community is fantastic.
Thank you again.
I finally got my playing Jambalaya to sound good.
I copied your strumming style & it sounds much better than I did before.
I guess now I am playing in Swing style or Cowboy strum. Yeah!!!
That is awesome Phyllis. Thanks for letting me know. Here's to style points.
Love this .thank u

That was a fun burst of song. I feel like I should see some money in my hat after that LOL.
Yes, you should.
Lovely!😊 You’re radiating light and happiness as you sing and play!😊 Subbed👍
Thank you so much 🤗
❤❤❤❤
Hope this helped you on your ukulele journey.
Merci beaucoup. Et je suis chanceuse.... lèa je suis la 300e et sur l'autre LET IT BE, la 100e.... it is a good sign... thanks to show me how to do a song :)
I am so glad!!
I CAN NO DO G7
Yeah!!!
Thanks for the course but for the first song , You don't have the right strumming ( you haven't the right beat at all ) The beat is a 2/4 moderatly ..
Thanks for your input - My strum is a 2 beat strum, and I picked a strum that could be done through most of the 10 songs. Teacher first - exact replicator of songs - further down the list of priorities. I want folks to be able to play and enjoy and spread the ukulele love.
@@TheUkuleleFool ... I understand, except that mediocrity is not better. If you're going to teach something, do it correctly from the beginning. That way, people will learn every song the right way. It's not more complicated either.
I totally agree if I were teaching folks to perform. My first and foremost goal with a round-up of 3 beginner-friendly songs is to help people have fun in being able to play ukulele and sing at the same time. It's about joy, as opposed to replicating performances by professional musicians. I save that for the college kids.
😂
I hope this brought some join fun in your life.
Why does everybody sing?
There are several really good ukulele channels that are devoted to fingerstyle and chord melody on the ukulele. Rock Class 101 and Ukulele Time. You will also find play along channels where the singing is done for you - like Ukulealiens. My focus is on those who like to sing or play with folks who sing. If I didn't sing over 3 easy chords it would be super boring and a bit weird.
Great ukulele teacher but painful to listen to singing.
Wow! Painful. Okay. What made it painful for you? I should note that if I was playing to suit my voice, I wouldn't pick the key of C, but I want to help ukulele players. Seriously, if I would like to hear your thoughts. I am always looking to improve.
You are too hard to follow I’m a beginner
This would be challenging if you're just starting out. Here's where beginners start - th-cam.com/play/PLxPthNJp8Bn1qfh80MQ0T-02dWLMZap0w.html Thanks for letting me know.
NO THANKS HERE YOU DO NOT DO THE SAME THING YOU PLAY F HEAD THE UKE STRUM IS NOT WHAT YOU DO MUST CONFUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE F HEAD I AM N OT GIVING YOU ANY MONEY FOR A SONG BOOK GET F HEAD
