A<\/strong> teacher spoke about his experience of having a brilliant student that he was unable to give enough time to due to time constraints and commitments he had made to other students before he started teaching this particular student. He lost time during driving back and forth from one student’s house to another leaving him not enough time to teach his student. When he started giving piano lessons online, he could equally divide time between all his students according to his schedule. Schedule flexibility is one of the main reasons most teachers and students opt for online classes these days.<\/p>\r\n <\/span><\/p>\r\n (Practicing in a Professional Manner)<\/em><\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n I<\/strong>n online piano lessons<\/strong><\/em>, the pre-recorded classes can be a godsend for most students. A teacher cannot be present at all times when a student practices. The student can go back and study the necessary parts instead of waiting for the next practice session. The recorded classes can be good for the teachers as well, as they can send their students those videos to learn from if they cannot be present.<\/p>\r\n <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\r\n (Value for Money)<\/em><\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n I<\/strong>t is a cost-effective way of teaching music lessons. Going from place to place is not cheap especially if you are driving. The fuel cost racks up pretty quickly. Teaching online from the comfort of your home or studio proves more cost-effective. The main source of online classes is the internet, mobile\/computer. No other equipment is required or to be purchased. The price of the online classes are cheap rather than lesson prices. The most important cost-effective manner is that the students need not have to pay extra charges to the teachers for travelling to give piano lessons.<\/p>\r\n <\/span><\/p>\r\n (Time is Money)<\/em><\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n D<\/strong>riving back and forth from one home to another takes up a lot of time. On the other side, those that use public transport will have to comply with the schedule of the mode of transport again costing them the precious time they could spend instead on the students. A most important factor is time. Wasting precious time means wasting money and energy. The teachers and students can manage their extra time by studying, giving extra classes and managing household works instead of wasting time in travelling.<\/p>\r\n <\/span><\/p>\r\n (Global Benefits)<\/em><\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n G<\/strong>iving classes in person will limit you to only the students in your area. Through online piano lessons<\/strong><\/em>, you can teach students all across the country or even the world diversifying your experience as well. By this latest technology of online classes, one can achieve name and fame by sharing their ideas across the seas. This is the one time chance to show talent to others and help in every aspect.<\/p>\r\n There are also various aspects such as:<\/p>\r\n <\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n (Document Presentation)<\/em><\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n I<\/strong>t is extremely easy to share the sheet music through any social media platform or email. Having one electronic copy will allow you to share it with all your students without any restrictions. The lesson sheet can be distributed to every member of the online class to practice and learn. The shared copy can also help the students to practice before the exams also.<\/p>\r\n <\/span><\/p>\r\n (Technological Benefit)<\/i><\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n C<\/strong>hildren and teenagers these days are more used to paying attention to a screen than they are to their surroundings. Online classes make the student focus on the task and the teacher only. While for in-person classes they might feel distracted with other things. Most music teachers that give both in-house classes and online classes state that students pay more attention to them in online classes instead of the in-person classes.<\/p>\r\n <\/span><\/p>\r\n W<\/strong>hile there are many advantages to giving classes online, it comes with its share of issues that might be the deal-breaker for some :-<\/p>\r\n <\/span><\/p>\r\n (Audible of Voice Matters in Online Learning)<\/em><\/p>\r\n <\/span><\/p>\r\n O<\/strong>ne issue that is a common complaint amongst online piano lessons<\/strong><\/em> is that the sound quality might not be as desired due to internet connectivity problems or just the slow internet can delay sound i.e. sound reaches after the video and movements shown by the teacher. It can be solved by making certain that you are not having connectivity problems before starting the class.<\/span><\/p>\r\n <\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n (Maintaining of Formal Behaviours is Less) <\/em><\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n I<\/strong>t is more of a con for a student following pre-recorded classes. If the position and movement of the student are not right or what they are playing is not up to par, then the teacher is responsible to demonstrate how to correct it. Following a pre-recording or even when giving online classes a teacher is unable to demonstrate to his students how to change the position correctly and needs to settle for describing it.<\/p>\r\n <\/span><\/p>\r\n (Change of Lesson\/Sheets Creates Confusion to Students)<\/em><\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n S<\/strong>heet music is essential for teaching piano lessons. Providing the students with sheet music and making changes in it as required is the responsibility of the teacher. Teachers have to provide sheet music before the class and it is difficult once sent to make changes to the sheet music or point at certain areas during the tutoring.<\/p>\r\n <\/span><\/p>\r\n (Costly Management of Technolgy)<\/em><\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n M<\/strong>ost online music tutors with time find the need to get better and bigger equipment when they expand their tutoring circle. Good quality cameras and sound systems i.e. mics can be costly. If you are not sure of whether or not you will continue to teach online over giving classes in person in the future it can be a costly investment to make. The online pros always advise starting with a regular camera and a tripod until you are assured of your commitment to teaching online.<\/p>\r\nYOUR STUDENTS CAN GO BACK AND WATCH REPEATEDLY FOR PRACTIC<\/h4>\r\n
