Skype Music Lesson & Teacher
What is skype?
Skype is a computer programme that allows two or more people to communicate face to face via computer. The result is you see live footage of your teacher. Your teacher sees live footage of you. It means that a lesson can take place anywhere in the world as long as -
1) You and your teacher have the correct computer equipment. A powerful enough computer, good broadband and a webcam would be needed.
2) A skype account. This can be sorted free of charge at www.skype.com
3) A time that suits both yourself and your teacher can be arranged. in the UK and Europe this is not a problem. If you are in America or Australia this may take more thought due to time zone differences.
4) You are happy to make payment to your teacher via a merchant account such as Paypal. This is to offer protection and comfort in the payment transaction to you.
Why have skype tuition?
Skype can allow you to have tuition in an instrument not covered in your area. Take the harp and harmonica as an example of an instrument we can offer but not always in the area you require. Skype is the perfect solution for this. If you are in a remote part of the world or have moved from an area covered by our teachers, Skype would allow you to take up or continue music tuition.
Our tuition could also save you money if you live in a part of the world where music tuition is much more expensive than in the UK. In New York for example there are substantial savings to be had having tuition with us using Skype as tuition can be as much as $60 per hour (£40).
We currently having students taking lessons with us outside of the UK via Skype. The reasons they give us are price and also language barriers in the country they are now living in.
Our student area also allows access to resources from a remote location. Your teacher would be able to direct you to the sheet music or question they require you to work on and you would be able to access this directly.
