Making Remote/Hybrid Lessons Work for Middle and High School Students

For my Fairfield County students in middle school and high school, I begin with in-person lessons to get to know the students [and the student families to get to know me].

Following several months, we can consider a mix of online and in-person classes. I definitely can say that remote lessons work!!! Nonetheless, you can continue with in-person lessons.

Preparing for the remote lesson:

1: Decide on using iPad, laptop, or iPhone.

2: Decide if FaceTime or Zoom works better for you.

3. Position camera so I can see the hands and the music.

4. I will send a link for Zoom lessons. I will call you for FaceTime lessons.

5. After the lesson, I will text you the details of the pieces you will play during the week.

6. We conclude the lesson with friendly conversation!
