FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION:

"Why take weekly one-on-one music lessons with an experienced, qualified, life-long professional musician and devoted, dedicated music educator when you can simply watch YouTube videos and try teaching yourself?"

The most straight-forward and truthful answer is this:

Music is a deep and worthy subject to pursue.

A deep subject must be studied deeply.

A worthy subject must be studied in a worthy manner.

To pursue the study of music in an enjoyable, fulfilling, creative, connected and authentic way, a person must be guided correctly.

ADVANTAGES OF TAKING ONLINE MUSIC LESSONS

• Quality of the teacher:  Most educators agree it is better to have Skype lessons with an excellent teacher than it is to have in-person lessons with a less qualified teacher.
• Searching for the best match to suit your needs: Seeking a new teacher using Skype broadens the search possibilities since choices are not restricted to one's local geographical area.
• Connecting with the right teacher: Skype gives students the opportunity to find the best teacher whose expertise can help them attain their goals.
• Added benefit of Recording the Lessons: While students always have the option to record their in-person lessons, it rarely happens. But students can easily record Skype lessons for review at a later time with digital recorders or free apps that plug into Skype during a video call.
• Immediate Practicing: Long-distance students can practice immediately after the lesson when ideas are fresh and when energy levels are still high.
• Warming Up: Students can warm up on their instrument and review their assignment right before their lesson, and have the advantage of playing their own instrument during the Skype lesson.
• Increased student performance: Research studies have found that people tend to be very focused when interacting via webcam with minimal off-task distracting behavior during the lesson.

A recent testimony from an adult study who takes weekly real-time online private lessons:  Andy: I want to thank you for the time we’ve spent together at the piano during our weekly online Skype video chat calls. I’ve enjoyed listening to the audio I record to document our weekly lessons while driving my car each day. You’re really a gifted teacher and although I’m one of your new students, you have already given me a sense of calm, confidence and excitement when playing the piano and/or composing. I’m very thankful to have been exposed to both you and George Russell’s “Lydian Chromatic Concept of Tonal Organization.”
