Do Online Piano Lessons really work?
To my surprise, as a piano teacher, online lessons are actually great! And let me tell you why...
​
-
You save time and money! No climbing into your car, using petrol, factoring in travel time, waiting for your lesson... all you do is log onto Zoom 5 minutes before your scheduled lesson time and you're set!
-
You still get all the benefits of piano lessons in the comfort and safety of your home.
-
For home-schoolers, you are easily able to include piano lessons into your home schooling curriculum.
-
For busy adults, you simply log online and can still learn piano in your demanding schedule.
-
I am still able to show my students how to play piano and different techniques and everything else, as I use the camera to show how I move my fingers. Even if I am not physically right next to them, all that's required for both student and teacher is sight and sound.
-
I have a lot of teaching experience, so I know exactly what I am looking and listening for even if it's through a webcam.
What you need to get started...
-
A good and reliable internet connection.
-
Your piano or keyboard set up in a nice quiet environment.
-
A device with a camera, such as a tablet or laptop, or even a phone with a decent-sized screen.
-
A small table or bar stool - or something somewhere close to the keyboard to set the device on at a good angle. All I need to see are your hands at a fairly good angle.
-
Your love for learning the piano, of course!
