Testimonials
“I have been learning ukulele with Nicola each week for a year in a small adult group class.
Nicola teaches us with enthusiasm and helps make even the more challenging pieces entertaining, encouraging us to practise rather than it being a chore. She knows when to provide us with music that extends our learning but also consolidates chords, patterns and skills regularly. The music chosen covers a range of decades, rhythms and music types. Nicola even takes our requests!
I always look forward to our class and we are able to practise and continually review what we have covered as lessons are recorded and links made readily available.
Nicola is a great communicator, an engaging teacher and she is blessed with an abundance of patience!”
“I’ve been learning uke with Nicola for a very enjoyable 18 months. Each week she challenges and affirms us with the just the right balance of humour and skill. Now I can confidently play a wide range of tunes - not bad for an old chook!”
“I have been doing adult ukulele lessons with Nicola for the past 12 months and am amazed by how far I’ve come. Nicola is wonderful music teacher. She inspires confidence in her students and encourages us to step out of our comfort zone and improve our music skills each week. Nicola’s love of learning music is contagious.”
“We were so impressed with Nicola who taught our 3 children the ukulele over the school holidays. The kids love her and think she is extremely nice. Her teaching was very good and she is obviously an amazing music teacher. The set up in her studio is very impressive and she was very responsive with communication. I really appreciated that she inspired the kids to practice and got them to commit to practicing, which saved me from having to nag them to do it. We 100% recommend Nicola for Ukulele lessons.”
“My 8 year old took part in a holiday Ukelele class, and loved it. He came home showing us everything he learnt and keen to practice. Nicola made it so much fun and engaging. Would definitely recommend it to anyone who’s child is showing an interest in music.”
