The following supplies are not mandatory, but will be helpful if they are readily available: (1) post-its or colored tape or sticker to put on computer screen; (2) still life object that learner can easily focus eyes on (such as lamp, alarm clock, plant, teddy bear, etc.); and (3) something far away in the room to focus on (such as a painting or window). Also, for class, please be prepared to have a printout of the sheet music or a printout of the lyrics, a pencil to mark up the sheet music, and a second device to play accompaniment. Prior to class, please send me the name of the song, sheet music, or karaoke track that you would like to learn. If you need help choosing a song, please feel free to contact me before class begins. If you need help with accompaniment tracks, there are some wonderful resources such as YouTube, PianoTrax, The Accompanist, Musicnotes, or SheetMusicDirect. If you do not have a backing track, please reach out to me before class, and I will help you find a backing track. You are also welcome to sing along with the recording artist, but please check your volume so you will be louder than the recording artist.
