Reneé Dominique, a young YouTube ukulele star from the Philippines, covers "What a Wonderful World" beautifully in her video.
While most of us cannot sing like Reneé, perhaps we can learn to play Ukulele like her. This video shows how to play the song with Ukulele like her in easy way.

In Reneé's video, she actually plays a "mash-up" with another song ("Can't Help Falling in Love"). But I cover only "What a Wonderful World" in this video as I made a separate video for it.

0:00 Opening & Chords
1:00 Shuffle Rhythm
1:15 Strum Patterns - pattern 1
1:46 pattern 2
2:12 pattern 3
2:39 pattern 4 & 5
3:24 Play Along (cover)

First part of the video is the tutorial. I first explain the chords Reneé uses for the song. I then explain the "shuffle" rhythm used for this song. Then I explain strum patterns she uses. There are 5 variations and they are all easy to learn. The tutorial demonstrates the methods in detail with videos and animated diagrams, making it easy to understand and follow.

Second part of the video is playing example (cover). I play & sing the song, using the playing method I explained in the tutorial. The song cover accompanies with lyrics and chord diagrams in timely manner so it works as "Play Along" for practice.

As I'm not a good singer, my singing voice is processed with software. I appreciate your understanding.
