★ Children of Music Learning Project
Free Ukulele Course for Young Beginners
A child-friendly beginner music course designed to help young learners build confidence, independence, rhythm, coordination, and joyful musical expression through short lessons and guided practice.
Self-paced online learning for young beginners
Video lessons, guided practice, and child-friendly digital access.
Designed from real teaching experience
This course was created by Krysti Subieta Edward, founder of Children of Music, after years of working directly with children, families, students, and adult learners.
Video-based instruction
Short, accessible lessons help students revisit concepts, practice at their own pace, and continue learning outside of live instruction.
Confidence and independence
The course supports more than music skills. It helps young learners practice focus, follow-through, self-expression, and joyful persistence.
Video lessons designed for real student engagement
The course uses clear, friendly video instruction to help young beginners see, hear, and follow each step of the learning process. Students can pause, replay, and practice at their own pace.
✓Polished video-based instruction for self-paced learning
✓Beginner-friendly demonstrations that support independent practice
✓Digital learning experience designed to extend instruction beyond live lessons

A note from Krysti
I created this beginner ukulele course to make music feel accessible, joyful, and doable for young learners. My teaching approach is built around the belief that children grow when learning is clear, encouraging, playful, and structured enough to help them succeed.
This project reflects my broader work in curriculum development, coaching, online learning design, and child-centered education.
