Steps to Get Ready for Live Online Guitar Lessons
- Step 1: Check Your Internet
- Step 2: Choose Your Device
- Step 3: Install Skype
- Step 4: Set Up Your Space
- Step 5: Position Your Camera
- Step 6: Prepare Your Guitar
- Step 7: Test Audio and Bring a Good Mood
Step 1: Check Your Internet
Ensure your internet connection is stable to maintain smooth video calls and high-quality sound. A reliable connection prevents any disruptions during live online guitar lessons.
Step 2: Choose Your Device
The ideal devices for live online guitar lessons are a laptop or tablet, as they typically have larger screens. A larger monitor makes it easier to view materials shared by the teacher during lessons.
However, if you prefer a minimalist setup, you can use a smartphone with a camera and microphone, though it may be less convenient for viewing shared materials.
Step 3: Install Skype
Over time, Skype has proven to be a recommended platform for live online guitar lessons. This free program offers all the tools needed for a comfortable learning experience. Download Skype and test it before your lesson. If you have any specific preferences, we can discuss them beforehand.
Step 4: Set Up Your Space
Find a comfortable and quiet space for our live online guitar lessons. A peaceful environment is necessary to stay focused and maximize your learning experience.
Step 5: Position Your Camera
To offer advice and corrections, the teacher must see both your hands and the fretboard during live online guitar lessons. Position your camera to capture half of your body, allowing the teacher to see both of your hands.
Step 6: Prepare Your Guitar
Tune your guitar and have your picks, metronome, and any materials ready. If it's your first lesson, you can start with just your guitar and a metronome app on your smartphone.
Step 7: Test Audio and Bring a Good Mood
Check your sound. If you're using headphones, ensure they work properly. And don’t forget to bring a positive attitude! A good mood always makes the lesson more enjoyable, and we’re here to have fun while learning.
Conclusion
These seven steps come from years of experience. While time and technology move quickly, I believe the fundamental elements for quality online guitar lessons remain timeless. I hope you’ve completed all seven steps and are ready to schedule your live online guitar lessons with LushGuitar Lessons.
Take your time. It's always better to prepare thoroughly and feel relaxed and confident before your session, rather than rushing and feeling unsettled. Prepare everything, and let's start your guitar journey with ease and confidence! Are you ready to play? Let's get started.
