Zoom Settings For Voice Lessons
Online singing lessons work wonderfully over Zoom, but there are a few things we can do to ensure that everything is setup for an optimal experience.
It is important to download the Zoom desktop client as opposed to using Zoom on your web brower. Once it is downloaded, make sure you are in a strong wifi zone or even better, connected to the internet through an ethernet connection. It's important to note that an ipad or iphone is not ideal for Zoom lessons. A laptop or desktop computer is always suggested. Here are a few things to consider when using Zoom for voice lessons:
