Private Bass Lessons with Blyss

Private lessons

Private lessons are structured around the skill level and goals of each student.

How It Works

1.      You record a video or audio using the Ashbury Music Hall recording tools.  Tell me as much as you can about what you want to learn.  Play something, a song that you’re working on (or part of it), an etude – anything! Don't be shy, I just need to get a 'feel' for where you are. ( Just try to keep your video at or around 5 minutes.)

2.      I will send a response with my recommendation for a lesson track and we'll get started!  

3.      Your virtual lesson web page is created just for you and is private so you don't have to be shy about other people hearing your practice and progress. I will be the only person who has access to your lessons and videos (and the Ashbury Music Hall webmasters).

Private Lessons are $60

·         I will review up to 3 of your video posts per week (5 min. max on each video) and give you feedback on how you are doing. 

·          I will answer your posted questions with appropriate media (text documents, video, audio, related links). 

·         Each week I will give you an updated assignment and when necessary, I will create special teaching videos just for you, related to your assignments and progress. 

·         The lesson is customized for you and your learning pace. 

·         You have access to all the content we create 24/7 allowing you to learn when YOU want!  When you are ready to move on purchase the next lesson. 

·          Lessons are active for 2 weeks.

Feel free to send me a message if you have any questions.
