My Project

I love my students’ joyful energy and their willingness to try new things together. Their enthusiasm for music and movement creates a positive classroom atmosphere.

Having a ukulele allows me to engage students through singing and playing songs, making lessons more interactive and memorable.

Music supports language development, listening skills, and emotional expression. It also helps build community, encourages participation, and makes transitions smoother. By integrating songs into daily routines and lessons, I can reach a diverse range of learners and make learning a fun experience. The ukulele brings our class together, fostering creativity, confidence, and a lifelong appreciation for music.
