Cornett lessons online
If you play a musical instrument seriously, then there is no substitute for taking lessons with a well-respected local teacher. This is as true for the cornett as for any instrument, especially at the beginning when it so very easy to form bad habits which are then difficult to correct.
Following requests from amateur cornett players across the world who live in "cornett isolation" (many miles from good professional support), in 2012 I started to offer online tuition: this has proved popular, offering insight, technical or musical, to players living 'out of reach'.
How it works
You will need a computer with camera and microphone and the lesson takes place via Skype (or Facetime). The built-in camera and mic on most computers are adequate for our needs although I use external units (mic, camera, headphones, cinema display and speakers) for better quality. I can get pretty close up from right across the world! To get started simply email Jeremy here.
Charges
My teaching charges for private lessons are £50 per hour. Due to European regulations, I have to charge VAT (tax) on top, currently 20%, no matter whether you live in Perth (Scotland), Paris or Perth (Australia). Payment via PayPal is easiest before or after the session.
Total £60 per hour
Too pricey for you?? Then consider the following...
* up to 50% discount for students
* think about sharing a lesson with a friend
* just got a small problem and looking for a quick fix? Then book 15 minutes
* just got started and want to be sure you are on the right track? Go for 15 or 20 minutes
* even share 15 or 20 minutes with somebody else if you want to!
* Sessions bookable in 15 or 20 minute blocks up to 2 hours at any one time
* Please note: if time is lost due to a shaky internet connection then that will be made up at no charge;
or a new session will be booked if necessary.
Even better, come and see me in person if you can. I teach in:
London (Guildhall School of Music)
Cardiff (Royal Welsh College of Music)
University of Cambridge (Girton College)
