Hey guys! I hope you are having a fantastic Saturday! 

I have good news. My first mini-course is now available on the Patreon page. Also, the website is finally ready. 

ABOUT THIS COURSE

This first mini-course covers a fingerstyle technique called "Alternate Fingering." 

With this technique, we pluck the strings with the index and middle finger continuously. 

It's a technique used to play scales and melodies, but we will also use it to play chords in this course. 

The goal is to develop your plucking fingers, and the alternate fingering is the right place to start. 

No more sloppy plucking with just one finger, so make sure you get this technique right.

WHY THIS TECHNIQUE?

It is pretty common for ukulele beginners to pluck the strings with just one finger. 

To be honest, I did the same when I first learned guitar! And it was easy!

I first started plucking the strings with just the thumb. Then I realized that I couldn't go faster, so I switched to index finger! 

None of them worked, and it took weeks to learn how to pluck the proper way.

The problem with plucking with one fingering is that even if it feels ok initially, it becomes quite limiting after a while. 

For this reason, I thought it would be good to have a course that shows you how to break this bad habit and teaches you how to pluck the strings correctly.  

HOW CAN YOU ACCESS THE COURSE?

All the mini-courses are available on my Patreon page. 

Until now, you could only select the $5 tier for the YouTube tabs. 

I have just updated the main page with a $15 tier to give you access to all the mini-courses. 

The goal is to quickly put out another mini-course on basic music theory (I am working hard to have it ready next month). 

If you want to learn chords, chord progressions, Spanish ukulele, and songwriting (even at the most basic level), you need to cover music theory and learn where chords come from, scales, intervals, and triads. 

Once we have this course, we can then explore so many other musical things easily. 

I am super excited about it, so I hope I am choosing the right topic! 

THANKS, A LOT!

Please feel free to click around and ask me questions. 

I am sure there could be things I didn't think of, so please share your feedback here! 

I am super excited, guys, so let me know if you like the website and the course. 

Speak soon. 

Marco.

Great, beginning is the half of whole! But up to me I'll be waiting for the classic and songwriting courses.

Thank you, Marco. A little challenging to navigate the changes but achievable. Your wonderful skills, so much more available to me now, are priceless. Please accept the double payment with Patreon as a bonus for all your excellent work in setting this up. I really appreciate the new website and the arrangement. Beautiful!

Ohh this will be cool!!!, you might address this in the course but is growing out my nails on my strumming hand necessary? I lost my nail on my index finger so I might wait till that heals up to get the course. I’m really glad I found you on YouTube, I’ve said this before but you bring such a unique set of lessons that isn’t anywhere else on YouTube! 😁

Hi Tommy. Absolutely not. You can play the ukulele without fingernails. I come from classical guitar, and I have been playing with fingernails since I was 12. However, you can play guitar and ukulele without fingernails. Good luck.

Hi Alice. Welcome to the Patreon page. Thanks a lot for the support. I hope you enjoy the lessons and the music. At your tier level, you can access the YouTube tabs. So, if you want to learn one of my youtube lessons, you can click on the link in the YouTube description to open the Patreon post with the tab. I also have a higher level ($15) that gives you access to courses that are not on YouTube. You can navigate the YouTube lessons as well as the courses on my website ukewithmarco.com. Let me know if you need further help :)
