Operating online with Zoom Workplace Software

1. I do not offer “MakeUp Lessons” at another Lesson Time. 

2. You may ReSchedule  a lesson two days or more ahead of your weekly lesson. Use your Calendar and make plans for the Week.

3. I can be prepared ahead of time to use Zoom (or FaceTime) for a lesson when needed during your regular scheduled time. Basic technology is required. (See below.) I must certify you ahead of time - to be ready for online lessons,

4. I can also use the lesson time to prepare an A/V lesson to view at your convenience, offline. This A/V or Audio Lesson will come as an email Attachment within your Lesson Assignment email. This recording can be played and replayed, stopped and started and rewound for your study all week long.

Operating online with Apple FaceTime

Both parties use Apple devices and exchange phone numbers.

Operating online with Zoom Client Software 

This is not an expensive operation! With devices, you may already have, you can have an excellent music lesson online. Certification of Online Lessons is required.

Download Zoom software for your device.

1. Laptop or large Tablet, in front of the Student, 

2. Smartphone with camera for the Teacher’s view point,

3. A Tripod to position smartphone for Piano lessons: head high looking down onto the piano,

4. Internet: good wifi or direct connect (ethernet Cable), best if others are off wifi.

5. Extension cords to plug-in all devices

6. An External well-placed microphone ( Yeti mic or a lapel mic) and speaker or earplugs/headphones are fantastic and really help to have a productive lesson environment for both student AND teacher. 

Why cripple yourself or your Teacher thru an online lesson, unable to hear and see well enough to learn information and follow directions. Prepare for a wonderful experience.
