Thanks Madeline, my wife and I just bought ukes. I am sneaking in some practice time on my lunch break and found your video series. I am 45 years old and I love how you teach. You might actually teach this old dog a new trick. My wife is left handed and having some troubles. Any suggestions?

Hi and thanks for the nice comment. Regading left handed playing - I have some "lefties' in my family and they don't do anything different. Since each hand has a different function, I think it is just a matter of getting used to the playing patterns. I know of guitarists who restring their instruments upside- to turn the instrument facing the other way - but it is not the general thing to do. I would say, one should just be patient with oneself and perservere.

Many good wishes, Madeline

Hi Madeline. My daughter Ellie just got a Uke and this was the best introduction to the instrument we have found on the internet. Many thanks.

thank you so much for this. I'm 26 and I struggled to find videos that covered the very basics of it. I stumbled upon yours and I love your style of teaching, I'm hoping to learn this soon!
