Want to learn to play ukulele in a relaxed and casual way?

From 66.63 C$ /h

The ukulele lessons are suitable for beginners. It is taught in a casual and relaxed manner, with a lot of personal attention and a good lesson structure. You will soon be able to accompany a song. You learn to play and sing chords, different beats, strumming patterns, simple melodies and some basic knowledge of music theory. We do not work with musical notation, but with tablature. That is a simple alternative. There is also a lot of room to learn what you like yourself. Be sure to bring the songs you want to learn to play.

Start with an introductory lesson to see if you like it and to discuss what you want to learn. You can borrow a ukulele if you don't already have one.

About Me

My name is Brigitte, the founder of B Ukeful. Music plays an important role in my life. I like to listen to it, go to concerts and play guitar and ukulele. I started playing the guitar when I was twelve years old. I only discovered the ukulele at a much later age. A whole new world opened up for me and I fell completely in love with this cheerful and versatile instrument. I went to follow workshops, visited festivals and joined My Clog has fleas, a ukulele club in Delft. In Zoetermeer I started with another ukulele fanatic, the Sweet Lake Ukes. A group of ukulele players who play together once every two weeks.
One thing led to another. At one point I also started performing at residential care centers and giving workshops.
Because of my enthusiasm, I also infected others with the ukulele virus and was asked if I wanted to teach. I started doing this since 2019. First to a group of participants as a daytime activity. Not much later also with private lessons.

The ukulele really took hold of me. The instrument connects, brings you into the here and now and it makes you happy and relaxed. That is what I wish everyone. I therefore hope that as many people as possible will embrace the ukulele and become as "Ukeful" as I am.

Maybe see you soon at my lessons, workshops or performances! Do not hesitate to contact me if you want to know something.

Education

I have had guitar lessons for a number of years and followed many ukulele workshops. But above all, I learned a lot by practicing often and playing together with others.

Experience / Qualifications

Lots of experience playing guitar and ukulele. I play in a band and regularly perform with the ukulele. I have been teaching ukulele and workshops since 2019.

With 20 years of experience as a guitar teacher and as a professional musician, I like to pass on my passion for the guitar to others.
I teach at all levels; from beginners to advanced, and specialize in jazz, flamenco, classical, bossa nova, rock, funk and metal.
On the basis of the level of the student I make a program that suits them, including learning songs with chords, playing riffs, rhythm theory, speed, improvisation, specific techniques, transcription of solos.
I also teach entire bands, using control so that they can play well together.

See you soon !

I welcome students of all ages, from young beginners to adults who want to expand their musical horizons. My teaching philosophy is rooted in building a strong foundation in classical guitar, with special attention to correct posture and technique for younger learners. I believe that early development of good habits sets the stage for a lifetime of healthy playing.

Each student’s learning style and goals are unique, and my lessons reflect that. For adults or more experienced students, I offer flexible lesson plans tailored to your individual interests—whether it’s mastering classical repertoire, improving technique, or exploring other genres. My aim is to make each lesson engaging, enjoyable, and directly aligned with what you hope to achieve.

For those interested in formal qualifications, I offer preparation for music grade exams through internationally recognised boards such as Trinity College London, ABRSM (Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music), and the International School of Musicians. These exams are excellent milestones for students looking to build confidence, set goals, and track their progress in a structured way.

Let’s work together to unlock your potential and find the joy in making music!

Ukrainian is a beautiful yet not a very easy language. But it doesn't have to be.

I have 2 decades of experience teaching students of various levels and have developed my own framework and methodology in order to make the process easy, receptive and effective. So if you would like to begin your Ukrainian language and culture journey, or are looking to delve into a more specific topic, I will be happy to help you on your way.

My goal is to make Ukrainian language and culture more accessible and familiar, and to make your communication with Ukrainian speakers more fun and direct.

Let's get started!

Let's enjoy French culture together!
I believe immersion is the best way for learning a new language, so let me bring France to you through lessons and fun activities! Cooking traditional dishes with French recipes, analyzing the lyrics of French songs and poems, watching cult French cinematographic works, and so on.
I can also adapt my teaching with a more academic approach of course. Vocabulary and grammar are on the programme as well.

My name is Xander and I am 19 years old. I was born and grew up in the UK near London. I am fluent and extremally competent in English and I feel I can teach English as well as most school subjects to children and teenagers younger than 16. I can teach between 30mins and an hour depending on the requirements of the student. I can teach maths, english language, geography, history and science. I have some teaching experience both in academics and non-academic. Whilst doing A-Level Biology I taught a student who went on to get an A* and I have also assisted in teaching a sailing class. I am friendly, kind and understanding and I know I can do a good job.

As a dedicated primary school teacher with more than a decade of experience, I'm all about making learning an adventure for children. I wholeheartedly believe that every child is a little genius in the making, and I'm here to help them shine and communicate fluently in a world-wide language.

My teaching mission? Boosting those English skills! We're diving into the exciting world of vocabulary, reading, writing, speaking and grammar. But here's the twist: I'm not your typical English teacher. I'm also a certified speech and drama educator. So, we're not just learning; we're acting it out, playing with words, and having a wonderful learning experience along the way.

To add to that, I also have good experience in tutoring expat families. I get that moving to a new country can be a whirlwind, especially for the little ones. But with my guidance, your child will not only have a good command of English but also increase in confidence in their communication skills.

So, let's make learning English a fun and fantastic journey for your child. Whether it is through books, games, or a little bit of drama, I'm here to ignite their passion for the language and help them become adept in expressing themselves.

Feeling good with your body and listening to it, understanding where the sound comes from and how to produce it, learning the basics and how to read the notes and the score, learning tricks and daily exercises without the instrument to help you develop your agility and muscles, playing together duets to get closer to the chamber music world and to learn how to listen and collaborate with others. I think it's important to listen also to the student's requests and desires; if you have a tune or a piece that you would love to play we can work on it together.

Folk music is also an interesting way through which we can get closer to the instrument and the music world, playing traditional dances from different countries and discovering different music languages.

As every person has his own physiognomy and musculature, we will try to find together a correct and comfortable posture that better suits the student to create a connection with the instrument. Warming-up and taking care of our body is part of a musician's life (beginner, amateur or professional) and it is important to prevent injuries and muscle pain. Unfortunately this aspect is not often taken into account and for this reason I aim to transmit this value to my students.

In our lessons, we’ll focus on real-life communication, vocabulary building, pronunciation, and grammar in a natural and engaging way. I also use a variety of materials, including visuals, games, exercises, and authentic texts, to make learning enjoyable and effective.

If you're ready to learn Turkish in a fun, friendly, and structured environment, I’d love to help you on your language journey!

Mijn lesaanpak is leerlinggericht, interactief en doelgericht. Ik stem elke les af op jouw niveau, behoeften en leerstijl – of je nu Turks leert voor reizen, werk, studie of gewoon persoonlijke interesse.

In onze lessen richten we ons op communicatie in het echte leven, woordenschatopbouw, uitspraak en grammatica op een natuurlijke en boeiende manier. Ik gebruik ook diverse materialen, waaronder beeldmateriaal, spelletjes, oefeningen en authentieke teksten, om het leren leuk en effectief te maken.

Ben je klaar om Turks te leren in een leuke, vriendelijke en gestructureerde omgeving? Ik help je graag!

Not everyone has mastered the right learning method. That's why I first work with the student to determine what's causing them to struggle with math. Once that's been done, I'll help the student figure out how best to approach it. Then, I explain using the material provided by the school, paying particular attention to the material the student finds difficult. Practice is crucial in this subject, and we'll do plenty of that in addition to clarifying the theory.

If I receive the material in advance, I always prepare my tutoring sessions. This way, I can optimally assist the student to ensure high-quality tutoring.

I'll also make it clear upfront that there are no stupid questions with me. I'll always be understanding if you're having trouble or perhaps don't have something from previous years handy. There's always a reason why you're requesting tutoring, and I'll always support you through any difficulties.

My name is Shahira, I'm 18 years old and recently completed my pre-university education (VWO) diploma. With a strong academic foundation and a clear explanation style, I offer tutoring to high school students in Zoetermeer and the surrounding area.
I tutor in math, chemistry, science, life, and technology (NLT), Dutch, and English. Personal guidance is key during lessons: the explanations are adapted to the student's level and pace, with the goal not only of achieving better results but also of increasing their confidence and understanding of the subject matter.
The tutoring sessions are suitable for students who need extra support, struggle with certain subjects, or want to prepare for tests and exams. Reliability, structure, and clear communication are paramount.
