YOU ARE IN!

Thank you!

Congratulations on making a meaningful investment in yourself and your musical journey!

Setting Up for Zoom Piano Lessons

1. Devices to Use

  • Use a laptop or iPad for Zoom lessons.

  • Do NOT use only a phone—the screen is too small.

2. Camera Setup

  • Place your device on a stable surface (desk, music stand, or tripod).

  • Best angle: Position the camera to the side, showing your whole body, torso, and feet.

  • Make sure the keyboard and hands are clearly visible.

3. Lighting & Sound

  • Make sure it's bright enough so everything is clear.

  • Keep background noise low for clear audio.

4. Internet & Lesson Prep

  • Connect to a strong Wi-Fi signal or use a wired connection.

  • Limit other devices using the internet at the same time. (If another device is in a meeting, it will slow down your connection and cause poor video/audio quality.)

  • Have your music book, pencil, and notes ready.

  • Log in a few minutes early to check audio and video.

  • Position your device before the lesson starts so you’re ready to play.

5. Joining the Lesson

  • Meeting ID: 383 749 6577 (No password needed)

  • Join at your scheduled time, and you will be placed in the waiting room until I let you in.

6. Zoom Settings (Before the Lesson)

  • Open Zoom on your laptop or iPad.

  • Go to Settings > Audio and:

  • Turn OFF “Automatically adjust microphone volume”

  • Enable “Original Sound for Musicians” and turn it ON during the lesson.

  • Set Suppress Background Noise to LOW.

  • Use Speaker View (not Gallery View) to see your teacher clearly.
