Where are lessons held?
It depends. I am based in Tacoma, but teach students within a 50-mile radius. For that reason, lessons are held at several locations: Churches, Schools, Pierce College (Puyallup). But for most people, the most convenient place for lessons is in their own home. When possible, I'll try to travel to you, but when that isn't possible, technology is our friend.
​
Zoom/Facetime lessons
Virtual lessons, when done right, can be just as effective as in-person lessons. Because the trombone is a more physically involved instrument, it's better if initial lessons be held in-person to address posture, breathing, and tone production. That said, for slightly more advanced students, a hybrid approach can be very successful. This is an approach where the majority of weekly lessons are held over zoom or facetime with occasional (usually monthly) in-person lessons.
