TAKE LESSONS FROM DALE MORRIS
Lessons are tailored to each individual's needs, interests, age, and experience
level. Students are taught to play by ear, read tablature or sheet music. If you are interested in taking lessons, please call or email Dale for
pricing and session availability. Please include the instrument and style of music you are interested in learning
to play, your skill level, as well as your address and phone number. For distance learning, telephone lessons are also available. A note from Dale:
Obviously,
Alaska is quite a distance from Texas and just about the only lessons
that her son gets is whenever they should come to Texas
on vacation whenever
I teach in Washington State where they are visiting relatives.The
bottom line is that lessons are FEW and FAR BETWEEN!!! She called one night to ask if
I'd consider trying to teach him by "speakerphone." I
was very skeptical at first. How could it possibly work? How expensive
would a one hour long distance call cost? Would I be able to teach, not
being able to "see the student" or the "student
see me"? It DID WORK! In fact, I would never have dreamed how
well. Upon doing the first of these lessons I realized the following: • I did not have to see
the student. I could tell by listening where problems existed.
By having taught so many
privately, I also knew how to fix
these problems, i.e., an out-of-tune note. I would know what was causing him
to
play this note
wrong and tell him how to fix it over the phone! • Being less distracted by visual things certainly caused me to listen more closely.
