Are Private Lessons Right For Me?
Are Private Lessons Right For Me?
Private Lessons work really well if you are looking to improve on specific skills and reach specific goals. Group lessons are always adjusted to the skill level of the overall group. This is something the teacher does to make the class function and make sure no one is left behind. This also means the instructor has to divide their attention. Plus they tend to only go so far with the topic being taught. If you want one on one attention, to bring your work to a more advanced level, build a portfolio, and/ or expand upon a topic taught in group classes... then private lessons are right for you.

Jessica has had numerous private lesson students over the years.
