The core items are straightforward: steady internet, camera placement, water, lyrics or sheet music, a pencil, and room to stand with relaxed posture.

The goal is a space where the teacher can hear pitch, see posture, and assign focused next steps. For more setup guidance, read our first online music lesson guide.
