Frequently Asked Questions about Skype Lesson

Nov 14, 2013

 

Since many students are having their first time to experience Skype Lessons, I tried to summarize the Frequently Asked Questions.

 

Q1. Can I see your face while we talk?

Yes,you can.

I have a camera, so you can also see me while were having lessons. I am using a headset in order for us to hear each other's voice clearly and to minimize the noise of the background as well.  You can decide if you want your camera ON during lesson.


Q2.How about the use of textbook?

During first trial lesson on Skype, the teacher and the student makes an agreement on what textbook to use for the lesson. I suggest the students to purchase their own textbooks for their own reference. Most students purchase their textbooks in Amazon. I can send you data-files if you requested.

Q3.How about when trouble gets into the line?

In the event of a failure in communication, I will adjust it the soonest possible.If in case lesson is interrupted by an internet connection problem, I talk with the staff and reply.

Q4.What are the good points of taking Skype Lessons?

1、自宅でできます  Can be done at home

3、交通費やお茶代がかかりません  Coffee and transportation expense free

4、服装やメイクを気にしなくていいです   Make-up and clothes worry free
