What People Are Saying
Fantastic school with great teachers! Ms. Tracy is incredibly friendly and very knowledgeable. my son has weekly ukulele lessons for about 3 months now and they have been fantastic. This school has provided great confidence in my sons music inspiration and playing and has propelled him further in his learning.
I saw an article about this company and arranged my daughters weekly lesson through them a year ago. I have been hugely impressed – a lovely company to deal with – the teacher they set my daughter up with is fantastic – she loves her weekly lesson, has become proficient in ukulele, and also it has given her some structure and stability in life when school has been closed for so much of the time. Excellent value for money. Could not recommend more highly.
Featured Ukulele Teachers
Here are just a few of our amazing ukulele teachers ready to come to your home to teach ukuleleI am currently studying Education at Macquarie University. I love sharing my skills with my ukulele students and watching them grow and learn to be proud of their musical achievements.
Currently studying Education at Monash University. I want to be able to share my knowledge and passion for music to my ukulele and guitar students, whether they’re just starting off or simply just want to improve their pre-existing ukulele skills, I want to help them develop their skills in a warm, friendly and encouraging environment. Learning any instrument should be a very fun and enjoyable experience.
Teaching is on my horizon both as a career and a passion as I’m currently studying Primary Education at the University of Queensland. Some of my fondest memories of learning the guitar and ukulele lie in the interactions I had with my teachers alongside the care and effort that they put into my learning. Through practice, collaboration and a generous helping of fun – we can achieve great things!
Studying Music at UWA. I am excited by the opportunity to guide a student towards discovering their full potential, and I love to inspire others to share a passion for music.

CHILD LESSONS
Is my child too young to start music lessons?
How old should my child be to begin music lessons?
Children as young as five can begin learning their instrument and basic music theory.
We are very experienced in tutoring young children who are complete beginners, and have all the patience and personality needed to engage your child and give them best start in their musical journey.
Is a 45 minute lesson too long for my child?
In our 45 minute lessons, we are able to cover music theory, technical skills alongside the songs we teach. These important aspects of musical education are often skipped over in 30 minute lessons.
How do I know my child is progressing ?
To keep our students learning and progressing, we use the Musical Ladder system. Every 3 months our students take a test with their teacher to make sure they are absorbing the material in the lessons and making progress. Our students love this system as they get to earn cool colourful wristbands and certificates as well as trophies for their achievements! Our teachers also will take the time to conference
What happens if I ( my child ) gets sick and can’t make a lesson one day?
We have group make up classes on the weekend, that are age and level appropriate. You can sign up online for as many as you would like and the make up never expires, meaning you can take the make up class a week or 2 months later.

Why Should You Take Ukulele Lessons?
Ukulele Lessons for Kids
Our instructor have a lot of experience with total beginners, and know how to guide them through to an advanced level.
Ukulele Lessons for Adults
We have a large group of adult students that enjoy weekly lessons with us.
We want to encourage our kids to have hobbies (ie things that keep them busy and are hopefully educational). Meaningful, long-term hobbies like learning the ukulele is one of the most purposeful and long-lasting. Buying a ukeule for kids is a financial gamble that begs the question, is it worth it?
YES— is the short answer. You don’t have to go crazy, buying a full-size ukulele before you even know if they are interested (or have any potential). It’s better to start with a scaled-down version until you and your child have decided it’s still interesting after the first month.
With programs such as Music Lessons Academy providing in home and online ukulele lessons it’s easy to get our kids started on their musical journey— it even keeps them busy for periods of time (we’ve been testing it out during quarantine and yes, it does really work!).
There’s no having to drive to lessons but they still get to learn notes and follow a rhythm.
There are a lot of studies that look into the effects of learning to play the ukulele on the development of children and their brains.
Everything from improved concentration to higher levels of emotional intelligence to increased math ability has been associated with skills credited to the ukulele.
Whether or not you’re looking for an activity to do for learning or are simply looking for a kid-friendly outlet for stress or anxiety, we have rounded up a range of options for the best ukulele for kids and toddlers that may pique your child’s interest. Play on mini-Mozart!
Before your child begins ukulele lessons, be sure you sit down and have a conversation about what you expect. I recommend agreeing on a time of day to practice, every day, even if that practice is only for them to play for five minutes.
Start small, but start consistent, and then you’ll have something to build on as your child advances through their ukulele lessons to the point where they can play many songs on the ukulele. The first lesson is important to establish whether or not the young child wants to progress any further with their musical education.
Please note, no child is instantly gifted with the ability to play the ukulele from the first lesson, PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE is the key to learn everything there is about the ukulele.
Even if the first step is just to learn a note or some notes and begin to string them together, kids just need time to practice and have fun with the keys until they ready to pursue bigger and better things.
We know that Music Lessons Academy is a great option for beginner ukulele students who want to start ukulele lessons, with fantastic teachers that want to progress and develop your ability to play ukulele at an early age to help you explore your interest in ukulele and build confidence.
If your child or children wants to learn ukulele, start with us as we have many resources to help our students achieve their musical goals.
Even if your child has already started ukulele lessons and you haven’t done some of these things, no worries!
Music lessons are an ongoing process, and ukulele students will benefit as you apply these ideas at any time during their education.
Visit online at Music Lessons Academy Instagram for posts that show helpful ideas for students to learn and develop.
The diminutive ukulele, born of a marriage in Hawaii in 1879, is currently in its third wave of worldwide popularity. It’s a charming, friendly instrument and ultimately easy to play. But there are treasures hidden in its depths.

Written lectures are often backed up with video presentations. And the instructor is available via email.
