A Short History of Our Studio’s Virtual Piano Lessons

Since 2018, our virtual lesson program has become a vital resource for students, ensuring uninterrupted musical education—whether due to illness, snow days, or busy schedules. This flexibility promotes continuous progress and helps students achieve their goals in music.

Virtual Piano Lessons are Effective:

  1. Virtual lessons offer unique advantages and are as effective as in-person sessions. Families can record their practice, enhancing the learning experience. With platforms like FaceTime and Zoom, interactions are seamless, creating a collaborative environment that enriches education.  
  2. One-on-one virtual lessons engage students fully, allowing them to ask questions in real-time. This dynamic fosters curiosity and understanding, eliminating the need for raising a virtual hand.  
  3. Our studio is organized to help students navigate their practice routines easily. With a simple binder and a detailed weekly Practice Plan uploaded to Google Drive, students get clear goals to focus on after lessons. This system empowers parental involvement, essential for younger learners.  
  4. Discovering new music is efficient using Google Drive, YouTube links, and our extensive website, which features tracks recorded by students over the past 30 years.  
  5. Students have dedicated pages on our website to showcase their original compositions and recordings. By sharing their music online, they connect with family and friends worldwide, recording using a simple voice memo app and emailing the files to the studio.
  6. Our studio offers a fantastic online community across platforms like Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and Flickr. Music is meant to be shared!

Virtual Piano Lessons are Convenient:

  1. Virtual lessons are incredibly convenient, requiring almost no setup time. Simply turn on your device, set it on your tripod, and you’re ready to go.
  2. Fewer absences – attend your lesson even if you’re a bit under the weather, allowing you to progress with your music each every week.
  3. No driving in bad weather, like snow, ice, rain. Stay safe at home. 
  4. Great communication – parents can hop in the video for quick updates to and from the teacher.
  5. Just show up (pajamas are ok)!
  6. Most music books needed are accessible online through resources like Amazon.com, MusicNotes.com, and SheetMusicPlus.com. Often, students can obtain their music right away or with next-day shipping. 

Product Requirements for our Virtual Piano Lesson Program

    1. We recommend an iPad. iPhones and other tablets will work, but not as well, since the iPad uses both the superior audio quality of FaceTime as well as the larger screen. We strongly recommend you use the iPad.
    2. An 88-Key Keyboard or Digital Piano. Please ask us for help in finding a great instrument to get started on. 
    3. Piano bench and keyboard stand. Chairs and tables are often the wrong height for maintaining proper body position, which can cause confusion about why you’re hitting wrong notes and developing bad habits.
    4. Personal Gmail account: We use this free Google account to access Google Drive. We share each student’s practice plans and weekly assignments, along with a curated music listening resource in our Google spreadsheet, file sharing of PDFs and MP3s, and much more. Email communication is quick and easy, allowing you to get answers to your questions at any time.
    5. We recommend a FaceTime account.  Zoom will work, but it is dependent on your internet connection and your hardware for audio quality. FaceTime is preferred. We can help you assess your setup. 
    6. A floor-mounted tripod. Floor-mounted tripods with a tablet allow us teachers to see as if we are standing right next to the student. We have a vantage point from a higher angle to view all the keys and understand exactly what is happening as if we were in the room. Other benefits of the tripod include: 1. Your device is more secure, making it less likely for the student to drop and break it (unlike propping your device up on some books on a table). 2. Teachers can pick up the tripod in the studio and hold it over their hands, enabling the students to see the teacher’s hands clearly. 
    7. A printer and ink. Printing a Practice Plan is far superior to searching for it digitally in an email or on the small screen of a phone. Students often miss important details, even if they remember to check the Practice Plan on a tiny display.
