There are many benefits to online music lessons. The savings in costs, in both time and money, are more widely recognized. Savings in areas such as transportation, studio expenses, canceled lessons, and billing issues are just a few. But did you know that there are few lesser-known benefits of online lessons? Here are a few that you might not have given much thought.
Teacher or student moving
Americans are very mobile. Whether you are a teacher or a parent/student, the chances are one of you will move away from the other before too long. Your teacher-student relationship is significant to you. It might have taken you a while to find that teacher that really “clicks” with you. As a teacher, you might have found that student that you enjoy teaching. Your relationship doesn’t have to end. Online lessons allow you to maintain your teacher-student relationship no matter where either of you resides. This includes one of you moving to a different country. At MusicTeacherNotes, you can teach or receive music instructions from virtually anywhere in the world.
Growth Opportunities
Looking for more students? Online music lessons allow you to grow your studio or music lesson business beyond your local area. With online lessons, you can instruct students from around the country or world.
You can expand your business into areas you never thought possible.
This also allows you to develop a new community. Your students will feel part of something that is beyond their area. Your business hours are also not restricted to the area of residence. You can teach your local students during regular business hours, and instruct students from other areas when it fits both of your schedules. This allows for much greater flexibility for your business.
Personalization of Instruction
Do you have an interest in learning an instrument that is rather rare or exotic? Perhaps an instrument that is unique to a specific country or region of the world? Your teacher might not be familiar with this instrument. Or maybe it’s a situation where the instrument is just not taught by your teacher. Your instruction is limited to your area. With online music instruction, you can give or receive music lessons from virtually anywhere in the world. The opportunity of online lessons greatly enhances your horizons, both as a teacher and a student.
Enhanced focus and concentration
Are your student’s sometimes not ready or prepared for their lesson? Online lessons encourage the student to be much more focused and prepared for their lesson. They will be more attentive and free from distractions during their online lesson.
These are just a few of the wide-ranging benefits of teaching music online. MusicTeacherNotes is committed to helping private music teachers get the most out of providing both in-person and online music lessons.
