Virtual Private Music Lessons (We offer in-person and virtual) - FAQs

What is a virtual private lesson?
A virtual private lesson is a one-on-one learning experience during which a teacher helps you begin or progress with your instrument. It is FUN, ENRICHING, and STEP-BY-STEP. Whereas traditionally private lessons are taught in person, virtual lessons are taught using your phone or computer to video conference with your teacher.

Who can take lessons?
The short answer is almost anyone! We teach students of all ages and levels, Children and adults, people with disabilities, serious/competitive musicians, recreational players… We really strive to bring music to anyone who wants to experience it and WE LOVE SHARING MUSIC!

What’s the best time to start?
There’s no better time than now! Music lessons are the antidote for boredom, they expand our mind, develop motor skills and open the door to creative exploration! Learning to create music is deeply satisfying, allowing us to experience beauty and connect with those around us. It is perhaps the single best cure for feelings of isolation!

What equipment do I need?
If you’re a singer, you just need a smartphone, tablet or computer with video! For all others, you’ll need a smartphone, tablet or computer with video and your instrument. That’s it!! Some student’s like to use earbuds or headphones but that’s optional and your teacher will help you with getting setup. IT’S REALLY THAT SIMPLE!

How do I setup for a lesson?
You guessed right, it’s super simple and your teacher will tell you everything you need to know! He/she will want you to be able to see him/her comfortably and will want to be able to see your posture and hand positions. Your teacher will help you use simple household items like rubber bands and a book on a chair or table to get the perfect camera angle.

How will my teacher be able to help me if she/he is not in the same room as me?
Your virtual teacher has many hours of experience working with students over video platforms. She/he will demonstrate so you can watch and listen and describe so you can understand. She/he will also be watching and listening to you attentively and helping you take notes so you know exactly what to work on. During lessons you have your teacher’s undivided attention and that includes a commitment to make it FUN and STEP-BY STEP.

How often and for how long should we meet?
Once a week private lessons are traditional and for beginners, 30 minute lessons are a good start but there are lots of options based on your situation. Many of our students do two 30 minutes weekly which is ideal for students of all ages because you get input every few days avoiding frustration, bad habits or boredom. 45 minute lessons and 60 minute lessons are also popular options especially for more advanced students but talk to your teacher to determine what’s best for you right now.

How much do virtual private lessons cost?
Lesson rates start at $30 for 30 minutes and $120 monthly.

What’s my commitment? (What if it’s not a good fit or I want to stop?)
There is NO initial commitment and we encourage all students to just start with one or two individual lessons… NO OBLIGATION! After you’ve determined it’s something you want to continue with, we proceed month to month, requesting one month’s notice if you want to stop so there is no long-term commitment on your part. Our number one objective is to tailor the experience to your needs and desires, and that includes synchronizing perfect teacher-student chemistry!
