Jeff Chamberlain

Great! Lost of doors opened on different sounds, styles, etc…With practice (lots of it) your selections and music give me a definite “upgrade” to my current knowledge and ability. The course is definitely challenging – “that’s good!” A lot of new material especially songs and blues. Your knowledge of music and ukulele makes it easier to play and improve. And it’s great to have the ability to read TAB, chords and rhythms.

Caroline Thomas

I love the diversity of the material; songs, fingerpicking, different styles of blues and rock. It lays a good foundation for general knowledge, technique and also which styles I prefer to play and would like to continue with in the future. I've been working on the course for several months. It’s a fun and easy-going course while being challenging and making us students set goals for ourselves and our playing. You should know you are an amazing teacher and there’s never a boring moment. You are one of my favorite teachers of all time. Uke Like The Pros is perfect for those who want to develop their ukulele playing and bring it to the next level, while having fun at the same time. The diversity of this course helped me find which styles I really love playing.
