Testimonials
September 2020: "May I take this opportunity to say how much I am enjoying the ukulele lessons with Sonia! Sonia is such a fantastic teacher... she’s really patient with everyone, is able to adapt the material to suit everyone at the level they are at, gives such great tips and techniques for ways to improve and not beat ourselves up if it’s difficult or frustrating, always brings such a great selection of music to the class for us to learn, with just the right amount of challenge in each new song and opportunity to progress in each class. I am totally addicted! I love the whole process - learning a new instrument, being part of a community of like-minded friendly people, singing (attempting to!), challenging myself and most importantly, having fun! The ukulele is my new, uplifting passion! Thank you once again for offering such a breadth of inspiring and awesome community education classes at Selwyn College. There really is something for everyone!" Keri

From Anna's March 2015 course:
- "I was concerned that I might not be able to keep up with this class but Anna took us through step by step and our skills developed. The class was fun and we had a lot of laughs".
- "This class teaches you in easy stages but not so slowly that it is boring. We have such a great evening - brightens my day".
