The second one threw me off! I taught myself ukulele by watching YouTube and I needed this so much to get to the next level. Thank you so much!

I appreciate the slow before the fast - that goes a long way to playing correctly. You're great at teaching fundamentals which are the essence of great playing. Thanks for sharing your talent!

The 3rd one was easily the most challenging, stopping it on the "three and". I love it though as it will help me coordinate better. Thank you for the video!

Thank you so much. This was really helpful. The last strumming pattern was most challenging for me but I will keep practicing.

Ik vind het leuk je lessen te volgen . Je legt het goed uit 😊

[Torahobservantcatmom]

I like that you dont have a lot of unnecessary talking. The play along part needs to be at least 2 minutes long to get the rhythm down really good. Otherwaise thank you for good instruction and not being condescending.

I do struggle with learning how to strum. I have started several months ago and like the challenge of learning the chords. I just find myself getting abit frustrated. Does it take a year to really catch on. I think your very patient and would like to learn some strumming techniques. Can you possibly send me some techniques so I can practice . I appreciate it and ty you kindly.

[sofirazilik]

Thank you for this video's tutorial..its helpful..to be able to see the music notations clearly for each strum pattern. I wonder if you also can spare another tutorial for the rhythm such as how to play DDDDU of various patterns (several music notations) - which indicate to which song respectively..? Because i find it confusing every time when trying songs on DDDDU..although it looks simple but actually not sure of which music notations it represent ? Just need few ideas if it is not much to ask, thank you again for your great effort in making sure the students understand the rhythm. Really appreciate it !!

[ayesaacebedo]
