As part of our ongoing quest to make more amazing music teachers more accessible to you, we're delighted to introduce you to a couple of new site features, including an especially fun one. Please meet the Lesson Ace. The Lesson Ace character was created by a wonderful set of artists who hail from Madrid, and is meant to exemplify our goal to help you 'Ace' your lesson. And that the teachers you'll find on LessonFace are all Aces at teaching. And that you will with time and practice (and expert instruction) also become an Ace. It's multifaceted.
Voice and drums are the original instruments. Unfortunately, as anyone knows who tries to sing outside of the shower or drum outside of a studio, not everyone is a fan.

Thanks so much to everyone who made it out last night and those who joined in on the #LFLaunchParty action on Twitter and Instagram.

While the budget never seems to go down for Congressional salaries, budget cuts continually drain away music programs in public schools. There are countless studies that show why music education benefits students (as well as adult learners) in numerous manners, but that doesn’t seem to matter to our politicians. So, what are we going to do about it? Let music education disappear?
Teaching lessons online review with Lessonface violin teacher and why she decided to start using Lessonface as a better online music learning platform for her students.
Online learning isn’t just a term buzzing around at Lessonface headquarters. With budget cuts hacking public education to pieces like an axe, politicians at the highest level are seeking solutions. With its lower costs and equal or better results, online learning has proven to be an opportunity for the bold.
