This week I found an app to use. It’s called Yousition and it is a free app on apple, I would assume on android as well. You can choose from guitar, piano, ukulele, and voice. It begins at the very beginning, including how to hold the ukulele, how to pluck the string, and how to tune and includes a tuner, which is nice because it eliminates the need for another app or fora physical tuner (which I have, but it will save money if teaching a ukulele class to not have to buy several tuners!) It has different courses to pluck, to learn tablature (which I am definitely going to explore for my next post!) How to use your left hand on the frets, using different fingers to play notes, and playing chords! It has 9 levels that gradually increase in complexity, scaffolding the learning. It looks like there can be a paid section for more lesson time, but the basics are free. This could also be something that students could fundraise for and pay for that way if it was something they were very interested in. I am excited to get to use this app and explore it more in the next week, and think it is a great starting point for people to learn the basics with clear, concise guides for free!
