Feeling a little bored and like your life is lacking a little extra creativity and personal growth? While we often think of music lessons as predominately benefitting children (and there’s no denying that they do), there are just as many benefits to learning an instrument later in life.
While many of us have busy lives that are always on the go, online music lessons make it easier than ever before to indulge in some “you time” and explore a new skill. With the added benefits of flexibility and convenience, musicians of all experience levels can explore a fulfilling new hobby. At Musicworks Canada, there’s nothing we love more than helping learners from all walks of life explore their potential. Below, we’ll highlight just a few of the many benefits of online music lessons. Read on to learn more!
Convenience and Flexibility for Busy Schedules
As we mentioned, adult life is constantly busy and full of many activities that keep us constantly on the go. While this can make it difficult to attend in-person classes*, online classes help to remove this barrier by removing the need to commute and can lower the stress that sometimes comes with getting from point A to point B. Online classes are designed to flex around your existing schedule, making it easier for adults with full-time jobs, family commitments and other priorities to fit learning a musical instrument into your schedule without added difficulty.
At Musicworks Canada, our experienced instructors offer plenty of availability for adult learners so you can indulge in a new hobby and feel like you’re rewarding yourself rather than adding another ‘chore’ to complete. From online piano, violin, guitar, singing, and even brass instruments and drum lessons, we have you covered!
Customized, Focused Learning
Some online platforms are only equipped to offer generic instruction (i.e. YouTube, apps, etc.), meaning that every learner gets access to the exact same material regardless of their skill, needs and musical background. This may work for a small, select group of learners, but there’s usually a limitation plateau, after which your progress begins to suffer. At Musicworks Canada, we offer tailored, real-time instruction in a one-to-one format that puts the needs, skill levels, and objectives of our students at the forefront of every lesson. That means you never have to worry about stagnating or getting bored. At Musicworks, our instructors work closely with each student to set clear goals and build on every lesson so you’ll always be able to see your growth over time.
The Option to Record and Review Lessons
One of the most unique advantages of online lessons is that you can record every session, which means you can easily review lesson material and your progress whenever you want. This is ideal for those wanting to hone in on certain techniques, review challenge points, or even brush up if you had to take a few weeks off due to life getting busy (who hasn’t been there?).
Being able to review lessons at any time gives you the ability to reinforce key points, ensuring you’re well-prepared for each practice session and building a strong foundation for continual progress. You’ll also gain access to a wide range of digital tools and resources, from sheet music to interactive apps and practice tracks, to make sure you never miss out on a full-fledged educational experience!
Comfort and Confidence in Your Own Space
Finally, the most obvious benefit of online music lessons is that you get to enjoy all the perks of taking on a new challenge from the comfort of your home. This is great for those who want a relaxing experience that allows them to focus on playing in a familiar environment. When you’re in control of your space, you have the ability to customize where you learn to set yourself up for success in the best way possible. Best of all, all you need is a reliable computer and internet connection, as well as speakers to facilitate instruction for your benefit. For many adults, this comfort level often makes learning more enjoyable and helps them stay committed to their practice.
