Is ukulele easy to learn, and can I teach myself?

Learning to play the ukulele can be easy and fun! Ukuleles are small and only have 4 strings, making chords and scales easy to learn and play without putting too much stress on your arms, wrists, and fingers. Additionally, ukulele strings are made of soft nylon, making them easier on your fingertips than guitar strings.

You can teach yourself to play the ukulele using YouTube videos and other free resources, but this method lacks structure and may take longer to see progress than if you learn with an instructor. A professional ukulele teacher can guide you in the right direction and save you from developing unhelpful habits early on in your practice.

How long does it take to learn ukulele?

While every individual is different, in general, it takes about 3 to 6 months of consistent practice to learn and become comfortable playing the ukulele. Practicing many hours per day may yield quicker results. That said, you can likely learn enough basic chord shapes and strumming patterns to play many favorite pop songs in just a matter of weeks, or even days.

How do I choose the best ukulele lessons near me?

When searching for ukulele lessons near you, be sure to:

What qualifications do you have?
What styles of ukulele do you teach?

I wanted to first share, before my lessons with Romantic Devil Records, I never even picked up an instrument. I thought learning to play was not something I had the time for or even the skills to do. I first tried to learn via an app and it just didn't work for me. I have been taking lessons with Carla for many years and I was wrong. Carla was able to personalize my lessons based on how I learn. It goes beyond playing, she also knows music theory and history. With Carla's teaching I learned how to play the guitar, piano and even the harmonica! She starts you with the basics and then breaks down the songs you love to hear and sing along to into a fun lesson. I am now playing more advanced songs and even have written a song with her help. Being able to play music has had such a positive impact in my life. I appreciate everything I have learned and continue to learn each lesson. And also have some fun and laughs along the way. Thank you Carla and Romantic Devil Records! I highly recommend!

I have been getting guitar lessons with Bryan for over two years. As a forty something year old, who can be very stuck in his ways, Bryan has been abundantly patient with my slow learning process. He is thoroughly knowledgable of the guitar, adapts to my learning curve, finds real life examples that helps move me along in the right direction. So very thankful I decided to go with Bryan as my teacher. He does the music world good simply being the kind of teacher he is.

Lessons with Tim were always fun and productive. He gave specific suggestions about technique to give me a better sound and he taught me a variety of ways to practice that continue to help me learn and understand jazz standards today. In addition to all of this, Tim is very encouraging and he creates a safe and fun learning environment.

I HIGHLY recommend Stu as a music teacher. The library where I work (Norfolk Library in Norfolk, CT) offered a 6-week adult harmonica class with Stu. In addition to working with Stu on the logistics of the course as a library employee, I also attended as a student. In both regards, Stu is an excellent teacher and presenter. As a presenter, he clearly communicated with the library in a timely manner. We were well prepared for offering the course. As a student, I enjoyed Stu's teaching style immensely! He is patient and encouraging and we had a lot of fun in the course. Several of the other students in the course have all shared that they found Stu to have excellent teaching skills. In fact, the students and the Library were so pleased with the class, we are offering a 6-week Harmonica II class to begin in May.

I came to guitar late. I had one never got around to learning how to play it. We had a flood in our basement and I came home to it floating right past me. Fast forward, my girlfriend got me an electric and a few lessons with Chris Merola. 2 years on, still going. I didn’t know a thing, now I play, might even get a band together!?

Joe is very easy to talk to and work with. He picked songs he knew I would like and were also challenging to play. He broke the songs into parts I could learn. Joe showed me hand exercises to really improved my playing. He has a great personality and as a teacher , he is extremely knowledgeable in music and was a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend joe as a bass teacher to anyone.
