"In lockdown I was forced to move my teaching online, I quickly found much to my surprise that with the ready access to modern technology, that my students progress did not suffer. In fact in many cases I found the opposite, and that I was able to introduce concepts and techniques more easily, along with being able to monitor, asses my students effectively and therefore generate personal lesson plans that resulted in fast progress. With the help of some fantastic specialist music software I can deliver fun, engaging and productive music lessons."
