On Saturday, when I returned home at the end of the school year, I taught my 12-year-old sister some easy chords and a few songs on my LU-11.
I liked having an Eleuke, so I could play the chords quietly in the background while she figured out how to form chords and what they sounded like - but as someone is learning how to play the ukulele through chord diagrams, I worry that I'm not going to be able to teach her well. (I'm also a little worried that, as in all things, she will quickly surpass me.)
Is there a better way to learn/teach the uke? Have a corrupted my poor sister's first uking experience? (And if I have, will I be able to make it up to her by getting her a nice one when she improves? )
Thanks!
