February 6, 2017 – We met in the Legion Room. The chairs there were comfortable but not suitable for playing the ukulele because of the armrests. we will be back in the Activity Room for the next ukulele jam. Speaking of not worrying, we played “Don’t Worry Be Happy” as one of our warm-up songs. The evening began with the group playing and singing a welcoming song for George who was also presented with a songbook and a beautiful membership card complete with photo id. We were delighted to see Claudio again. He had missed several meetings due to his exams. He played a Spanish song and also introduced us to the song “Just a Gigolo”. Claudio has become a great ukulele player. Each time he performs I become jealous of his talent. He is a wonderful asset to the club. Freda is also improving by leaps and bounds. She is now playing eleven chord songs and has her eye on a banjo uke. New member Brigitte is catching on quickly. She has come down with UAS and has recently purchased her 2nd instrument, a beautiful Kala solid mahogany concert ukulele.
George moved us during his “Open Mike” performance. This young CEGEP student really knows how to sing a song with feeling. Maureen is back in town from her lengthy visit with her family in Australia. Jet lag prevented her from attending but we will see her at the next meeting. We hope to see you there too. November 4, 2013 – This humble violist attended as a guest, with a view to enlightening the fretted types into the merits of tuning their instruments without an electronic tuner. Not much time for that, though, as the enthusiastic ukuleleists were busy gearing up for their Christmas/Hanukah concert. After rehearsing some seasonal stalwarts, such as You are my Sunshine (yours truly managed a few C chords at the appropriate time), the players moved on to more sophisticated fare, capped by Eliezer showing off his virtuosity during the open mike part of the evening. 1) All members of the ensemble should tune one of their strings to the same string of the leader; I suggest either the G string (lowest) or the A string (highest).
2) Following this, learn to work down from the top string by placing a finger on a suitable spot of the next string down, then tuning this string until it has exactly the same pitch as the upper string. This way players can tune their instruments properly at home. If they have a good A from the meeting, the instrument should hold its pitch reasonably well until the next meeting. We extend a special welcome to Rema , a very sharp and capable young lady who at the age of 80, is just beginning to learn to play the uke.

While teaching for the St. Johns County School system in St. Augustine Florida from 2002-2006, Dave was twice nominated for Teacher of the Year and wrote several award winning grants for his school's music program. Certifications from the state of Florida he has held include K-12 instrumental music. Performance Experience:Dave as performed and worked throughout the United States, David was very positive, accessible and knowledgeable. It is obvious that Dave has a lot of training, experience and strength in teaching piano. He made my son feel at ease and had a lot of tools for assessing my sons ability and skills and areas that needed development. While being encouraging, he was also able to develop a practice plan and strategy for helping my son to get better in a fun environment. My son left with a huge smile, saying he was excited and liked his new teacher. Great guy , we've been using him for years!!! I am passionate about Music and Music Education. It's rewarding for me to watch my students develop in their musical skill and enjoy making music more and more.
My students range from the very young (5 years old) to school age children, to teens, and adults. My students benefit from my expertise in teaching Vocal and Piano music, my knowledge of Music Theory, and my encouraging teaching style. I have been involved in making music since I was a young child, and I have been teaching private students since I was a Music major at the University of Florida in 1982 when a fellow college student as Born in Huntsville Al, Leandria L. received her Bachelors fromTennessee State University with a Commercial Music Performance Degree, since then, she has traveled to Europe to play in work shops and concerts, she's had the opportunity to played for gospel artists Kirk Franklin, Kurt Carr, and Tye Tribbett, and has just finished up her first year of teaching music in a classroom. Her most recent teaching experience was Kids On Stage Academy, where in one week her students learned how to read music and how to play Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. Her love for the arts keeps her love for teaching al
Leandria has a very pleasant personality and a genuinely caring attitude. From start to finish, I was very pleased with the first lesson. She is a very knowledgeable teacher. I am excitedly looking forward to seeing great progress after this initial series of lessons!Not only is she an amazing teacher but she is a wonderful person as well. She is so personable and truly felt like a friend to me. I was amazed at how fast I was learning and was having so much fun while doing it. She taught me the basics and foundations and she also taught me to play some fun songs like beyonce's Halo song as well! We would laugh and say we were channeling our inner beyonce. She adapts her teaching style to your learning style and really makes the most of each lesson. Unfortunately my life recently got a little chaotic so I had to put my lessons on hold for a while but when I continue back up I will definitely be going back to her. You can't find a better teacher than Leandria! I would highly recommend her to all people and age groups!
