When it came to giving music lessons online there were always the skeptics about how effective it really was and how easy it would be to set up. Thing is even without todays global challenges around social distancing the fact is the reasons for transitioning a music tuition business to online not only makes sense.... it's a whole lot easier than it used to be not so long ago! Challenges such as travelling to lessons, finding a good in your local area, finding the time to learn and practice has always been a source of frustration for both teachers and students! And nowadays being able to deliver your tuition online might actually mean the difference between your students actually being able to learn... and the one thing you need right now in order to maintain a viable teaching business. This course is perfect for teachers and also for all you students out there who through interest (or necessity!) is taking their lessons online. And fortunately for us, Christie hard work putting this course together removes all the legwork out of having to go it alone from scratch so you can get up and running online fast.

In a time where a global pandemic has forced digital learning to disrupted the education industry, Christie has provided an intuitive "DIY" jumpstart into developing an online flute studio. Whether one is transitioning into an online studio from teaching face to face or starting your first online studio, this course will provide you with the essential information you need to get online without stress and irritation. From file sharing, emailing, and using calendly- a scheduling platform, this course checks all the boxes.

I found Christie's course to be very helpful as I build my music own music studio and especially now while we can't have that "gold standard" everyone talks about, the live one to one in person instructional lesson. I have scrawled through countless on line forums only to find myself going aimlessly down the wrong worm hole of misinformation to learn exactly what has been presented in this course. The money you will spend on this course, which is about half your friendly neighborhood weekend warrier club gig pocket change, or the cost of a one hour lesson, is absolutley worth it. I'm not even a flute instructor and the material presented was helpful in every way. For example, I was under the impression that I would typing endless e-mails back and forth to my potential students or parents of sudents and countless hours opening my calendar to jugle an everchanging teaching scehdule I was so greatefull to see right off the top of this program that there is a much easier way out there and Christie walks you step by step through her proven approach. No more scheduling nightmares and you can spend your time teaching and honing your own craft. There are also segments within this course on taking payments, sharing files, software and application merging so they work together. It's all there for one to dig in, learn, try and implement. And now I will! Thank you Chrisite!

The online studio jump start course is great for anyone who is interested in moving their studio online- Christie walks you through every single step on the way. It is clear, thorough and done by someone who doesn't only have the experience, but the will to help everyone. Truly recommended

Hi, This is Doran. I can see you put a lot of work into this course. All the integration between apps is interesting. I like the idea of making the lesson personal to fit the student. Your class a good combination of administrative duties, aesthetics, and lesson know how.

This course was really helpful for me, as I feel like I've had a crash course in online teaching since the pandemic took hold. I needed some direction and recommendations for apps I can use to streamline the process. I found the content regarding file sharing, Zoom tips, Zapier, and website suggestions especially helpful. While I appreciated the tutorial on using Calendly, I found it a bit lengthy. Honestly, I have my own scheduling system simply using Google calendar. My website is powered by Wix, and I know I can integrate online scheduling through their apps as well. At this time, I've only moved my in-studio students online. I have not yet received new student requests, but as our school year (what's left of it) winds down, I will be recruiting -- I expect to be teaching exclusively online for the foreseeable future. I look forward to incorporating the tools highlighted in this course as I segue into this new phase. Great instruction -- very clear and easy to follow! I liked the "bite size" videos; it was nice being able to pick up where I left off. I will definitely be interested in future courses. Thank you!
