"I think the webcam teaching is an excellent resource for pipers of all levels. Students can learn all the same things as if it were a face-to-face lesson because he can see their hands and hear everything they're doing. Music is emailed back and forth as needed and this way I am able to get a lesson every week even though I live a six-hour drive away. I have learned a lot through these lessons and improved my music tenfold. Adrian is an excellent instructor and I would recommend his teaching to anyone wanting to learn or to further his/her bagpipe proficiency..."

"...since moving to the Midwest getting quality instruction has been a major challenge.  The closest instructors of note are several hours away by car.  I've recently started taking weekly lessons via webcam with Adrian Melvin.  The regular, high quality tuition has had a significant impact on the level of my playing..."
