Have you been thinking about taking tenor banjo lessons? Do you have a desire
to learn or add to the skills you already have?
Have you had trouble finding someone near you that can help you?
Does the distance or the weather make it impossible for you to travel?
Well, now you have an opportunity to take tenor banjo lessons from the comfort
of your home, through your computer! No Traveling!
I am giving tenor banjo lessons LIVE, and in person, online with a web cam.
It is easy to take lessons online.
All you need is a web cam, and a free video/audio conferencing program called
Skype, and a Pay Pal account.
I look forward to helping you attain your dream of playing the tenor banjo
or increasing your skills!
Do you want to get a better tremolo?
Learn how to play chord melody?
Learn how to improvise?
I can help you learn these things and a whole lot more!
Here is some more info that may help you:
A web-cam is a camera that attaches to your computer. It has both sound and
video. You will use that so I can see and hear you play banjo and you can
see and hear me too. A web-cam is not expensive, from $25 to $100 depending
on how much you want to spend.
The way we connect is through Skype. That is a video/audio conferencing program you have to download to your computer, it is a free service with no cost. Get it at www.skype.com. I have a Skype name: "banjopa" that you add as a contact, I need to know your Skype name so I can add you as a contact. I will make a call to you at your lesson time. You answer by clicking on the button in the Skype "window". It is really easy to do.
Basically I will teach people what they want to learn. Some areas of study
are:
tremolo, reading music, following a lead sheet, chords, rhythm, melody and
chord melody and also improvising. A bunch of other stuff too. Lessons are
$20 for a half hour session or $40 for an hour session.
Payment is via Paypal. You send money over the internet. You choose where your payment comes from. The recipient never knows your account details. I would not know if it is from a credit card, or your checking account, only the person paying knows that info. The money is direct deposited into my checking account, the payer does not know my account details. You send a payment to an e-mail address I give you. You can make an account at www.paypal.com
My schedule right now is open, You can pretty much choose a time that would
be convenient for you. I can work mornings, afternoons or evenings. Any day
of the week. Monday thru Saturday. I want to try to keep Sundays closed for
now, but I understand that it might be the only day open to some and I will
be flexible on that. I would like to do a lesson once every week with you,
at the same time each week so I can keep to a manageable schedule.
I can be flexible and do a lesson once every 2 weeks or once a month. I would
not recommend once a month as I feel too much time between lessons will not
benefit the student. Progress would be too slow.
