Musicologie Ukulele Lessons

Ukulele Lessons in Anderson, Ohio

Musicologie® is how modern music education should be. Take ukulele lessons in person at our Anderson studio or online with an expert Musicologie ukulele teacher. All ages and abilities.

Ukulele Lesson Basics

With its twee sound and simplicity, the ukulele is an exciting instrument to learn. It's even smaller than the guitar, making it good for little hands. It only has four strings, which means learning chords is a cinch. At Musicologie Anderson we have several ukulele teachers, including several guitar teachers who also teach the ukulele.

The Ukulele is Portable

You can take it with you anywhere. Grab a small, cheap uke and throw it in the back of your car for a road trip. Take it to the beach or a camp ground. Have an impromptu sign-a-long or show off to your friends on your front porch.

Play Any Song With Four Chords

As Axis of Awesome proved, if you know a couple chords, you can pretty much play any pop or rock song you can think of. Learn just a few things and you can rock out all night long on the ukulele.

Ukulele Lessons for Beginners

Kids and Very Young Beginners

Because the guitar can be challenging for young students, we often recommend the ukulele for young students instead of the guitar. It's smaller and easier to play, so young ukulele players can be successful right away. For those students we'll use a combination of curricula and approaches to keep lessons fun and engaging. For older kids we'll use more traditional curriculum like Alfred's Kid's Ukulele series.

Adults

You'd be surprised how many beginning adult students come to us for ukulele lessons: lots! The uke is fun and social, and a great way to get into music. If you're an adult you probably have a specific idea of what you want to achieve. Maybe you want to learn a specific song. Or you might want to prepare for an open mic. If you aren't sure, that's fine too! We'll guide you every step of the way.

Ukulele Lessons for Advanced Players

If you're an advanced player, you know your problem areas, you know what you need to work on. You need someone who has been there before and can help you get past your plateau. Most intermediate and advanced players who come to us need help with theory and note reading. They might be preparing for an important audition or performance. We've prepared for those same auditions and performances and know exactly how to help.

What to Expect from Ukulele Lessons at Musicologie

The first step is to attend your first ukulele lesson. You can sign up online, or contact us at (513) 620-4923. You can attend your lesson online over video, or in person at the Anderson studio at 7120 Dunn Rd Cincinnati Anderson, Ohio. We call the first lesson an assessment. But don't worry - it's not a test! It's a chance for us to get to know you, what your goals are and how best to help you achieve what you want. Plus it's a chance for you to get to know us!

At the studio you'll meet our Community Manager and your teacher who will guide you through process. You'll receive a welcome folder with prices and policies, a practice guide and a practice log. You'll spend about 30 minutes getting set up, learning about Musicologie, talking to you teacher about your goals and playing your ukulele. Your teacher will recommend a curriculum for you, and then, you'll sign up for ongoing ukulele lessons. You can choose from 30, 45 or 60 minute private lessons. You can also join a band through our RockStars® program. Then, start practicing!

Our Philosophy of Education

Why Choose Musicologie?

We are driven by a set of unifying principles that guide every lesson, every class, and every interaction.

Get Started

Discover More

We Start Early

Research shows the earlier you start, the more lifetime benefits you receive from studying music.

We Believe in Immersion + Exploration

All our lessons and classes are experiential and immersive, fun and exciting!

We Teach Life Skills

Music is awesome! It teaches so many things: emotional intelligence, discipline, self-awareness, motor skills, dexterity and more.

We Assume Good Intentions

We grow the trust, mutual respect and confidence of our students by assuming good intentions from everyone.

We Teach the Process of Learning

We focus on the process rather than the product, facilitating discovery rather than dictating information. We teach how to learn, not just what to learn.

We Encourage Mistakes

Making mistakes is what learning is. You try something, make mistakes, and try again. We encourage mistakes so our students are excited to take risks and try new things.

Our Responsibility

We know a student's success is our responsibility. It's our job to make lessons engaging, fun, and easy to be excited about.

Frequently Asked Questions

At Musicologie Anderson, we understand you may have questions! We want you to have total confidence that Musicologie is the right place for you or your child to start, or continue your musical journey. So we've collected the most frequently asked questions about our music lessons, our programs, and what it's like learning music at Musicologie.

The Musicologie Method™ is rooted in two things: a safe environment, and education through play. Research tells us these two elements are key components of the way everyone learns, from kids through adults.

In music lessons, a safe environment means a place where you feel free to be who you are, encouraged to play the music you enjoy, and excited to try new things. Education through play means having fun playing your instrument! That's why it's called playing music! We use games and strategies to help our music students make serious progress while enjoying the process.

We know that you'll stay more engaged by learning music you love and you'll grow faster by using what you've learned in your lessons in performances. We'll take our own Musicologie Method, along with traditional method books like Suzuki, Alfred's, Faber, etc., and combine that with contemporary music you're excited about with the goal of performing in one of our ensembles, group classes, or at one of our concerts.

We teach all ages. Many of our students are between the ages of 5 and 12, but we teach toddlers and we teach many adults, too! Our toddler music class is called Musicologie Junior and starts at 6 months. Private lessons start at 5. We also have a rock band class called Rockstars where students ages 7+ learn to be rock stars and play at local venues!

We also have member workshops, open mics, and concerts for all our students, including adults! At Musicologie Anderson, not only can you learn an instrument from an amazing, friendly, certified teacher, but you can meet other musicians and join a community of music explorers!

Not for your first lesson. We have instruments at our studios you can use for the first few lessons. But after that you'll want to get your own instrument for practice at home. Your teacher will help you pick out the right one. We also have open practice hours so you can come in and use instruments and practice rooms at Musicologie during the week.

If you do have your own instrument, you should definitely bring it with you, as long as it's easily portable - leave your piano and drums at home
