It is so obvious you were an elementary music teacher, and not just a musician sharing what you know. The way you explain every tiny detail, like HOW to switch between chords, makes learning ukulele so easy. I’m currently teaching myself ukulele so I can hopefully start teaching it at school (if I can get a class set of ukes). I’ll definitely be referring back to these videos and using some of your techniques. Love the "mouse in the house" trick! Thanks for all of these amazing videos!

@helenljc 3 года назад

Day 3 on my absolute beginner ukelele journey, stumbled upon your channel on my feed. I have, however, watched a lot of ukelele RU-vid tutorials. Your videos always bring a smile to my face. Be it the "look up", "don't leave", or "looks, I will wait" moments, you always seem to have some pleasant small details that surprise me in the videos. Those thoughtful moments make you not only a great music teacher, but a total charm to watch. There are many other great ukelele players and good teachers making videos too, but you are adorable in your own way and are valued for it. I will definitely follow and check out your other links/resources too. Thank you! :)

I watched so many videos on how to start playing the ukulele. And they’re good. But you really take your time explaining and showing different aspects instead of just focusing on just the chords. I never thought about how to go from one chord to the other. This was brilliant! I really enjoyed the video 😊

I love this lesson, this is exactly what I was looking for, stupid me was confused why my cords sounded dead when it was really just me not pressing hard enough and also , i learned hand position and so many other things.

Thank you. Have been mixing it up with a few online tutorials but like your attention to real basics such as position and posture. I'm approaching 72 years old and have had 4 or 5 guitars through my lifetime and because of my wide hands with short stubby fingers could never get any more than a couple of chords right. I went for a harmonica instead!! It was suggested I try a Uke and so glad I did. Now I know its just practice, practice and more but I think I'm going to like this.

@BernadetteTeachesMusic 2 года назад

Hi Terry!! Welcome to our community :) I’m so glad you decided to give ukulele a try! I’m a trained music teacher and I have created several courses that I call “challenges” here on RU-vid.

I'm 77, and yes, though she's a great teacher, I'd love to have half a dozen granddaughters who have her gorgeuos looks and charm. And yes, kid, I've five guitars, 5 ukes, about a dozen blues harps (harmonicas are for cowboys), 2 violins, about a dozen pennywhistles/tinwhistle/Irish whistles, native American flutes, etc., etc., so I know where you're coming from - and I bet you changed the high G on the uke to a low G, to simulate your guitars.

@endystune6294 4 года назад

This my second day with the ukulele. Yesterday, I had trouble with chord changes and the down up strumming. I kept at it and was able to play the chords clearly. At some point the down up strumming clicked with me. I’m having so much fun. I can’t wait to learn more. Thank you so much, Bernadette.

You are absolutely delightful. I have just bought my first ukulele to start learning to play and stumbled on this video and it feels like a children’s tv show. You have such a good stage presence and your explanations are clear.

I'm a retired elementary school music teacher trying to remember how to play. You are wonderful! The old hands aren't quite so supple but you make me want to keep working at it. I love you allusions to Lego hands and a mouse house!
