Even though I took the plunge into teaching piano lessons long distance (via Skype) 3 years ago, I still find it insightful to read others’ thoughts and perspectives on the topic. This article by Dan Severino Two Different Animals – Online Teaching vs. Studio Teaching is extensive and full of helpful thoughts for both those considering teaching long distance and those who are already doing so in some capacity.

Thank you for sharing this insightful article! I have a couple on-line students and find all points mentioned true. I also find that I spend more time verbally explaining concepts rather than demonstrating to the student. It has been a good learning experience for me.
