For those who are trying to learn in a more traditional classroom environment that comes with some disadvantages such as the teacher having to divide their attention between all the students and some students being shy to perform in front of their peers.
With a tutor you have one person focusing all of their attention on just you, allowing difficulties and problems to be explained in detail, aiding your learning significantly. Detailed feedback can also be given, without being pressed for time. Having these bonuses will aid in your learning of the instrument now and have you more ready for the future.
Another advantage of tutoring is that it's just you and a tutor, instead of being shy or nervous about asking a question, the feeling of being pressured won’t be there and you’ll be in an environment where you can feel free to take your time and to ask any and all questions that you want.
Having all this extra attention and help could also result in you enjoying the instrument and learning process more.
With distance no longer being a problem, you can now find the perfect tutor that suits your criteria without being worried about how long it will take to travel to them and vice versa.
Another advantage of not having to travel in time and cost. Now it's easier than ever to fit in an hour or two of extra practice into your day, setting up your computer/phone and connecting to the internet is much easier and faster than putting time aside for a commute. Not having to drive or take public transport also means you get to save money, many of our tutors also have cheaper rates per hour for online tutoring compared to their in-person rates!
Now is the perfect time to start getting some extra help. If you aren’t sure that you would like online tutoring, our tutors offer the first lesson for free. Now you can see what works for you and if you’re happy with your tutor without worrying about the expense.
