Five Ukulele TIPS to Save Months of PRACTICE!

Hi Anja, sorry about that. I think I missed Gabrielle's message (which was posted three months ago). Are you referring to the fretboard diagram shown in the video? Because the tab displays the same notes. Let me know :)

Hi Marco, thanks for this, great :). As Gabrielle L mentioned the fretboard diagram doesn't seem to be included, is that correct?

Thank you, Marco. Really very helpful and fun. I couldn't find the fretboard diagram you mentioned in the lesson? I've downloaded PDF of your other tips which I'm keen to work on, but hope you could post the fretboard diagram again, thanks.

Thanks a lot for sharing this, Lynn. I am super happy you enjoyed the video and that you find the tips useful. Let me know it goes with learning the fretboard :)

Oh!?! Learn the fret board???? I never thought of it!!! I laughed and laughed at myself. So basic! + Own what I play. Know what I play and analyze it. In other words, engage with the music in more meaningful ways. + Improve my technique by finding the notes of chords to discover new shapes. Explore symmetrical exercises and have fun doing it. + Practice Scales with Purpose + Diversify my Practice Routine {Stop playing the same things over and over!} Thanks Marco, for sparing me months, if not years, of unproductive practice. My first step is to include learning the fret board in my daily warm-up routine. . . I'm happy!

Hehe. Sorry! :)

Lol, sorry about that hehe.

Hi Aleksandr. Are you saying that you made progress with the ukulele, but you are now stuck?

Thanks a lot, Krysia. I am glad you find the lessons helpful. More to come :)

Thanks a lot for watching the video, Chuck. I know, right? Some of these tips work for everyone, to be honest. Enjoy the video :)

Hi Sandy. I know it is. But it is also super important, so I hope you'll put some time into learning it :)

I know, hehe. But it is one of the things that many students put off for so long. I mean, learning the E major chord is easy, right? But memorizing the fretboard can be such a pain! So, yep. Learn the fretboard is #1 :)

Thanks a lot, Kit. Enjoy the lesson.

Thanks a lot, John. I am glad you enjoy the lessons and I really appreciate your support here on Patreon :)

Thanks a lot, John. Enjoy :)

This is an awesome lesson! Thanks, Marco. Ciao, John

This exactly why I am a Patreon for Marco. This stuff really helps me to learn how to play better. I use these kinds of exercises every single day. Thank you.

Brilliant! Every single tip is better than the one before! It's really wonderful to have the guidance and you put such effort into it and fill in all the blanks. Thank you so much!

I thought Tip #1 was going to be "Master the E major chord" :P, learning the fret board doesn't sound so bad though, thank you Marco!

Thanks for the tips. All of them are helpful. Learning the fretboard is a pain in the neck, but so important. Thanks for reinforcing this.

Hi Marco,

Thanks for codifying these tips. They are important for beginners of course but are also good for advanced players to revisit from time to time to refresh thinking and get out of the inevitable ruts. They’re also good warm-up exercises. They encourage doing the hardest exercise of all: just consistently thinking.

I had been learning easy popular songs, but as soon as I saw you I knew I needed to try something different. I’m still new, but am loving the melodies and your teaching style. I notice that my skills are expanding thanks to you. Which is exciting thank you.

Krysia Bamford

Thanks for the tips. My problem is that I have been doing everything you told for about two years, but don't know how to progress (

Well !,...that’s just woken me up....😂😂

And to think I was just about to go to bed 😍
