Does this transfer to online lessons? As of right now, there's a plague that we're trying not to transfer right now. (As far as I've heard, online lessons are not that great, relatively speaking.)



If there's a experienced human teacher on the other end, you're good as far as my argument goes.

However, I think you'll run into all the general problems of doing business over a Zoom call. Dropouts, poor audio quality, lag, and all the weirdo problems of having a poor substitute for a physical presence.


The problem from my perspective is that video is a poor way to learn or diagnose technique. They can listen to the sound (albeit depending on their setup, inaccurately), but how do you tell if the student has tension in their shoulder (as an example)?
