4 Easy Steps to Give Great Online Music Lessons

Prepare your tools, test your internet connection and start building your ZOEN profile.  

 

Step 1: Prepare Your Profile

The ZOEN is designed to be your virtual studio and online marketing solution. You can display your schedule, credentials, a promotional video, picture, a tagline and other useful information about your teaching philosophy and musical style.

Step 2: Prepare Your Tools & Hardware

Watch our setup video to ensure that you have the tools you need. Here's a quick list to get you started: 
  1. A laptop or desktop computer (Mac or PC) with a webcam
  2. Headphones (we do not recommend ear-buds)
  3. Network cable (wired internet connection)
  4. Headphone extension cable (especially for piano instructors)
  5. Height-adjustable music stand

Step 3: Test Your Browser & Internet Connection

You don't need any additional software to teach in the ZOEN. However, we suggest installing the latest version of your preferred internet browser for best results. The ZOEN is compatible with most flash-enabled internet browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safari.  

Use the button on the right to test whether your internet connection is optimized for the ZOEN. We've built it to work on most standard DSL or broadband connections (minimum 600 kbps). Detailed information is available on our Setup page. Contact us if you encounter any problems during your test.
