Ukulele for All: Student Edition
Ukulele for All is an easy-to-use, comprehensive guide to learning the ukulele with colorful and engaging pages. It includes online access to video lessons for each song and each concept (including tuning) presented in the book. The online access also includes audio for the songs that can be slowed down for practicing. Students can also record themselves and submit recordings to their teacher.
This method begins with singing and strumming each song. Ukulele for All teaches chord diagrams by presenting them with a picture of a person's hand. The book also teaches tab reading, which is unique because it shows how the horizontal strings of the ukulele relate to the lines of the tab staff. This makes it easy for students to easily visualize where to put their fingers on the ukulele strings. Tab notation is taught alongside the singing of melodies and strumming of chords.
Ukulele for All works well for both classroom use and private instruction. A Teachers' Edition of the book is available with detailed suggestions on working with groups of students at different levels.
