What Is Your Biggest Challenge As a Ukulele Player?

What Is Your Biggest Challenge As a Ukulele Player?

One of the most exciting aspects of Ukulele Tricks for me is hearing from you.

I’ve tried to offer a variety of lessons and information about the ukulele on Ukulele Tricks, but I realize with as many people that use the site, I’ve probably overlooked something, and I know for a fact from all of our conversations that you have a lot of really great ideas for what you’d like to learn!

In the comments area below, I want you to answer the following question:

What is your biggest challenge as a ukulele player?

In other words, what do you want to be able to do better as a ukulele player? What do you want to learn? If you could improve one part of your playing, what would it be?

Your answer could be as simple as, “My biggest challenge is fingerpicking,” or, “I can’t remember how to play certain chords.”

It doesn’t matter what it is. I want to hear an honest evaluation of where you feel like you’re at as a ukulele player.

All of your responses will help me continue to create lessons and content on Ukulele Tricks that are extremely helpful and relevant to your current challenges. I want to be teaching you things that you want to learn and that are beneficial to you!

Let’s hear it. Post your comment below. I read every response.
