Aloha from sunny Singapore again~ I have been proactively self-learning ukulele for about 9 months. With some music knowledge from younger age, and plenty of good free resources online and books, I was able to learn chords and basic skills myself.
3 month ago I started to attend weekly 30min individual classes which help to resolve queries that I come across from books. As my teacher is originally a guitar teacher who was able to teach ukulele, I feel my ukulele queries sometimes not fully answered. I often come to here for answers! Thanks to the community.
I feel my passion for ukulele will grow less and less if I don’t improve my skill in the coming year, after a year of playing. So my new year resolution is to take up a reputable ukulele course and learn constructively!
** James Hill Ukulele in the Classroom Course or Rockschool Ukulele Course??? **
With busy work, I only have about 1 hour to practice 6 days of a week. Rather than myself learning from books and online courses (that takes discipline and patient to find answers elsewhere when sucked), I wanna make the most with the limited time I have. Physical classes are the most helpful for me. I enjoy the causual strum and sing with song book with friend occasionally. I also love the beautiful finger picking, which takes more effoord to learn. Finger picking is something that I find it harder to structurally learning by myself. sometime i didn't realise i picked songs that was too hard for my skill, etc. I like classical songs but mostly modern.
I am hoping in a year I can master some seemingly impressive skills from those who doesn't play music. Able to finger pick well, than just strum and sing. Hoping in about 3 years time I can play popular classical or pop songs impressively for real and know enough to be aware of what I am playing. And hopefully in 3-6 years time to have impressive skills even for those who plays music. I am not aiming to be a professional. Also not particular about creating music but would like to learn the msucic langauge or manner of music that is exisitng better. But I also get board easily -.- Just ukulele was so satifying and achiable in the past year to learn that kept it going. Almost every 2 weeks I can sing and play a new song~
Would like some advice on which course to would help to learn ukulele constructively. These are the only 2 internationally recognised course available here in this Lion city~ thanks for reading this long message.
ALOHA!
