WHAT PREVIOUS STUDENTS SAID ABOUT THIS CLASS:
This Zoom course made theory fun. Love that classes were small so there was a sense of community and we all had a chance to participate and share. Anne Ku is warm and lovely as a teacher.
Delightful mix of theory and practice towards developing an 'ukulele repertoire, via online instruction and demonstration in a small class format, which is supported by outstanding course notes and exercises.
Small online class that unravels the mystery of scales, chords, inversions and more, enabling the student to develop a capability to analyze ukulele scores by sight and by ear.
Anne Ku is an amazing music teacher. She is enthusiastic, skillful, knowledgeable and welcoming. Her classes are lively and fun. She can explain musical concepts in a way that is very accessible. I highly recommend her classes, and have already signed up for another one!
