The Uke School Method is based on a number of educational theories. It revolves around the idea that you learn best when you learn a little bit at a time, practice it at speed until you are comfortable with it, and then move on. Each new thing that you begin to study is not only based on what you have learned so far, but is the next logical step, based on what you could do with everything you have so far. The focus is to re-wire your brain, as efficiently as possible, to make you a ukulelist - and then you can happily explore the instrument for the rest of your life!

UkeSchool is designed to take advantage of the potential of web deployed learning resources. Unlike a real teacher, it is convenient and inexpensive. Unlike a book, it allows you to see, hear and touch a variety of visual and audio media so that you catch on to more, and catch on more quickly.

Because the ukulele is the easiest instrument in the world to play, you can move up to a level of serious competence very quickly. I learned these education theories studying pedal steel guitar, Mandarin Chinese, and astrophysics. Applied to subjects like these, good learning techniques can reduce years to months. For you, the ukulele student, I hope to reduce the months it could take into just weeks.
