Live Interactive Video Lessons on Skype

I have had some people mention that it would be helpful to have live lessons online so that I could interact with students, answer questions, and offer advice. Sounds fun to me! I’m going to offer both beginner and advanced lessons based on demand. If you’re interested just leave a comment and we can arrange a time. Skype is an easy and free way for us to connect, so if you don’t have a Skype account I have put a link below. It’s free as long as you connect from Skype to Skype…and I’m all about some free stuff.

Happy Fiddlin’
