Thank you, so much. Learning about sharing the ipad screen was extremely helpful. Stay healthy!!
Thank you very much Alastair. I appreciate all the clear advice and suggestions you so willingly shared with everyone. It will be quite a learning curve for me however your explanation has really helped me on my way. Cheers!
Thanks for explaining it all Alastair. Yours has been the best tutorial I've watched in my research. Enjoy your teaching!

Have watched many tutorials. Your's is most detailed and experienced. Still so much work!!
Thank-you, Alistair. That told me an amazing amount and I loved the 'work-a rounds' that you suggested re time lag and sharing information. My singing teacher mentioned Zoom during our last Skype lesson so this was a great introduction. Cheers :)

As far as I can see, there is no way to turn original sound on or off on anything other than a PC. It may work for all your devices if you originally downloaded the app first to a PC or laptop & adjust the audio settings, then start the meeting on the PC/laptop & then merely join the meeting on any extra devices. Make sure that the original sound option, (top left of home screen) is on the greyed out setting, not the Blue setting (this turns the sound processing crap back on again!! Good luck
Excellent and wonderfully clear explanation from Alistair Parnell. The only suggestion I have is that if using a Desktop computer which has an ethernet connection, use it. The internet access speed is far more reliable and in fact faster (that is faster from computer to the router) and the latency may possibly be shorter. There are very few teacher who are as good at "teaching" than Alistair Parnell. Thanks for another terrifically helpful tutorial !
awesome Alistair. Such a great help - I feel empowered!!
Thank you for sharing your experience with online teaching. I've been teaching band instruments since 1972 and have been wanting to expand my teaching expertise to online instruction and now forced to get busy! Besides private instruction, I have 250 music students to teach each week grades 1 through 5 and having to think creatively. Thanks for reviewing the share screen and especially the audio settings. This opens up many more possibilities. I miss playing along with students and hope that some day soon there will be a way to connect in real time. Thumbs up!

Thanks a lot Alistair! It was really very useful watching your video although I already use zoom for giving lessons since the lockdown in March. I just have a short comment for the end of your video when you are saying that in someway is even better for the students having lessons in that way than the "real" ones...I really don't agree because through the screen, no matter how fascinating is, you don't have contact, you can't share feelings and see the whole non-verbal communication of a student and vice versa. On a screen we always see a reflection from bits and bytes and not the real person. Thanks again and all the best for your lessons, which I am sure they are fantastic!

Hi. Thanks very much for watching and your comments. I think perhaps I wasn't clear. I said 'in some ways' online lessons are better, I certainly didn't mean overall. For example, in showing something like a close up of a fingering or an embouchure, seeing just that small detail on a screen can actually have a greater impact than it might have in person. I feel the student is drawn to just that small detail they can see on their screen. I also find I'm doing more preparation for online lessons than face to face lessons and that's probably a good thing. But yes I agree, face to face is best. Stay safe.

I've been a piano teacher for twenty-five years and I'm new to this having always been in the same room as a pupil while I teach!! Never used Zoom or Skype or Facetime to even wish someone a happy birthday never mind provide a half hour piano lesson. So please bear with me. I've downloaded the app (great video btw). And brought up my ugly mug on screen. This morning I've been trying to set-up my iPad at an angle and position to provide a view of myself demonstrating at the piano. More importantly I hope to advise my pupil to position it similarly so I can see the same view of them while they are playing. So I'm aiming for a view which matches where my head would be if I was sitting watching a pupil play. Before I even get that far though I note that if I show the screen view of myself on my iPad (as you have done at the 11:00 mark) everything is BACK TO FRONT....the high register is down the piano and my hands travel from right to left to get up there!! If I switch camera then the view is 'normal' but of course I can't see the screen as it's facing the other way. I note that in your own demonstration that you have the screen of the iPad facing you. Is that how you would have it during a lesson....so presumably things are back to front for the viewer? Please don't take this as criticism but I also while you're playing clarinet doesn't appear to have you, the clarinet or the music in shot!! What do you suggest? I can't help but be a bit concerned about this. Already despite the clever technology I'm having doubts and I haven't even said 'hello' to any of my pupils yet!!

Hi. I believe there is a setting to change the video round if you want to but, as far as I know the video will appear the right way round for your student anyway. In my video I was playing the saxophone and really just wanted to demonstrate the concept. I realised it probably didn't appear all that clear. Sorry.
Thank you Sir!

I've had my first 'dress rehearsal' with a piano pupil tonight and we explored the "original sound on/original sound off" settings. We found that the piano of course sounds better with the original sound turned ON ie. enabled....ie. bypassing all Zoom's filtering....BUT when we started talking during that setting it wasn't as good, in fact it was more awkward (echoing, cutting out, artefacts) than when the original sound was OFF. What we don't want to do is toggle on (play), toggle off (talk) toggle on (play), that would be a drag....so as it's more important in my view to have smoother speech and communication between myself and a remote pupil especially when we have to be even more concise/precise in these circumstances, surmised that maybe ultimately it was best to make do with the affected piano sound and keep the original sound OFF ie. disabled. Am I the only teacher in the world considering this alternative?? I feel like a maverick!!!

Hi. My experience is this varies between pupils and the set up they use/internet connection. As I understand it Zoom actually doesn't use its highest audio setting until you have selected 'share screen' and ticked the box that says 'share computer sound' . You have to do this for each meeting. Either way I think we have to make some compromises. At least we have a way to continue teaching.
It is very helpful.
thankyou so much! this is very helpful. stay safe and healthy! :)

Thank you Alistair. This was very well explained and helpful! I will be using my iphone camera as my 2nd overhead camera, resting on a cake cooling rack on top of my piano, which is held in place with a pile of books. This actually works. Then I just screen share to my iphone within the Zoom app on my laptop when I need to demonstrate something on my piano showing my hands from above.

Thank you very much for sharing your ideas. Working at a communal music school here in Germany I was already asked by the management to give online lesson to be paided further on. I am still allowed to go to my classroom alone in a primary school where I'v got everything I need to teach - but no Wi-Fi! And if I imagine the majority of my collegues who are all exellent musicians and teachers they mostly lack the IT technology knowledge. On the other side concidering the administration of our music school and the whole situation in the city council, every time these people are confronted with a new hard- or software situation they get trained. So once again we as artists are asked to invest everything we got to earn a littel income. But I'll try it. Let's see if my students - 4 to 60 years old - follow me. This comment disappeard but a don't know why. Maybe you reloaded this video? Anyway if its gone again I shut my mouth and play my Aerophone. ;-)
Could you please talk in more detail about your overhead camera sir? Where to buy, how to set up, and pros and cons please. Thank you so much in advance!

Great video Alistair, thank you! Today I tried setting up my ipad camera for the screen share option to give a different angle but the lag was at least 15 seconds so not useful at all! Any way to cut down the lag that you know of? Thanks!
