The Prindle School offers the option of OnLine lessons via Zoom. OnLine Lessons can take one of three forms:
100%-OnLine lessons. Students can take all of their lessons OnLine.
A blend of OnSite and OnLine lessons. We can customize the blend for each student but some possibilities could include alternating between one OnSite lesson and one OnLine lesson or taking mostly OnLine lessons with one OnSite lesson per month.
Occasional as-needed OnLine lessons. In the event that a student is unable to attend a normal OnSite lesson at one of our physical locations, OnLine lessons offer an opportunity to maintain the continuity of an ongoing lesson schedule. This is useful in the event of a minor illness or inclement weather.
How to Connect for Your Lesson
Zoom is compatible with all platforms . To connect with your teacher via Zoom, Login to your Prindle-School account. Click on the link to the lesson that will be held online. There, you will see a link to connect via zoom. Click that link and you’ll be connected.
If you typically participate in lessons OnSite and need to have your lesson OnLine for any reason, we’re happy to accommodate an OnLine lesson at any time. Please let us know by sending a note to your teacher via your Prindle School account and by texting 413-341-1686.
