A keyboard or piano (for piano lessons).
-
A device such as an iPad, laptop, or phone.
​
1. To Install the Zoom App:

On PHONE or TABLET: Download the app using the App Store.
-
On COMPUTER/LAPTOP: Visit www.zoom.us/download and click the big blue 'download' button at the top of the page.
​
2. Creating Your Virtual Learning Work Space:
-
You can prop up your device using a table, adjustable desk, microphone stand, or anything else that allows you and the piano to be seen in the camera.
-
I like to use a tripod stand because it is adjustable, lightweight, and easy to move around. Here is the link to the one I use.
