Skype Lessons (coming soon)
Mike is teaching private drum lessons via Skype.
This is a great opportunity for drummers overseas and in other areas of the USA to get a one on one lesson.
How does it work?
Download the Skype software, available free at skype.com
Set up a Paypal account, available for free at paypal.com
Use your high-speed Internet connection (fiber optic, cable or DSL; dial-up is too slow).
Add a webcam with a microphone to your computer (Some computers have a built-in camera and mic).
Your setup should include your drum kit as well as a practice pad. This can be placed on the snare drum of your kit, or on a stand, but should be in view of the camera. A side view of your kit usually works well. I need to see you at the drums and have a clear view of your hands.
Payment must be made in advance of lesson times.
Lessons are conducted in English.
