<p><em>I proposed today that each student record a 2 - 5 video of them teaching something about harp playing to someone. I know it will seem intimidating if you're not used to it, and some people have way more experience than others, but I can guarantee that you will learn something from each person, and therefore, it is only fair that you give each something of yours :) Obviously, you're all adults and you can make your own decisions, but if you can pick up your cell phone, and do this in the spirit of a class assignment, we'll all be the richer. And I'll learn valuable things as well which will be helpful for the next group. etc., and etc. Let me know if you'll take up the challenge.</em></p>

<p><em>I see that I have the harp 3 of siciliana only in a version of Sibelius that I must have dome on my computer in Nanaimo. Will try to get it and post next week. Just a very simple part to play for beginners.</em></p>

Give them a great deal, and tell them you're practicing on them. They'll be lucky, and you'll be ready to upgrade to real fees once you're done. The book is mainly oriented to older students (13 and up) but I will talk as well about the younger ages and how to do things with them, so take who you can. Adults may be easier for your first one, but some young ones are most excellent subjects :)</p>

<p>The main item is a laptop or computer or tablet you can use with zoom</p>
<p>You;lll need a revised edition of Harpstart Bk 1, and a binder or other means to keep your notes, and the additional pages you need. I'm sending a copy to anyone who does not have the revised edition. You may like to photocopy it, and put the pages in a binder, with your notes beside, or just keep them side by side as we work.</p>
<p>Lessons will be recorded, and available for the period of the course if you want to review.</p>
<p>Please let me know by email, or in the comment box if you need a book. If you have a student lined up, they will need to purchase a book. They can go to the <a contents="website store" data-link-label="Books & Music for sale" data-link-type="page" href="/books-music-for-sale">website store </a>or if you want I could mail with yours.</p>
<p>My zoom room is 250-709-2395. You can search for that or wait for me to email you before the class. I'll only do this for the first class, so you can practice logging in to zoom and finding me in advance if you like. If you've never used zoom, I'm happy to send you a link in advance which will then make future connections easier.</p>
<p>When you are logged in, locate the controls for your microphone being on or off. You'll need to be able to switch back and forth during the session. When it is off, you'll be able to play along, and if you want to ask questions, you'll need to turn it on.</p>Marilyn Rummel - Harp Canada Studio
