Ukulele Workshops in Scotland www.ukuleleworkshopsinscotland.com Fun, friendly and affordable tuition is available to anyone (individuals or groups) who would like to learn to play the delightful, fashionable, happy sounding ukulele. We specialise in 'strum and sing' workshops, courses and lessons. Ukulele Workshops in Scotland offer absolute and advanced beginner courses (each one consisting of five or six one hour lessons) and our unique 'Ukulele Jam - Teach' sessions to groups of between 15 - 20 students. One-to-one tuition is also available. We also deliver training for teachers and initial teacher training students (including non-music specialists) to equip them to teach the ukulele in classroom and extra curricular contexts. Ukulele Workshops in Scotland can also tailor-make energising team building sessions for corporate clients. We also offer 'Uke'n Try Ukulele'. Essentially a taste of the 'Uke Factor', it will leave you, and any other participants, hungry for more. Ukulele Workshops in Scotland can provide all the ukuleles for use in teacher training sessions, school visits and workshops. So, being 'uke-less' need not prevent you from getting involved! |
