-
I've already taken part in a SC&T class, can I take part again?
Yes! Our tutors are ready with new material to teach you this term, so everyone is welcome, whether you're just joining us or returning for another term.
-
Some classes say 'online', 'Live online option', or 'online option' - what does this mean?
Totally online - We have 2 classes this term which are totally online - melody online and accompaniment online. These will be held over zoom and no participants will meet in person. Live online option - there are 2 classes which are going to have an option of joining the class virtually through a live zoom link. The participant will be able to see the tutor live during the lesson and have an opportunity to interact with the tutor and class during the evening. The classes running this option are Whistle 1/2 and Flute. These classes will also be recorded and uploaded to Thinkific at the end of each lesson so can be watched back at a later date. Recorded online option - this is where the tutor shall record the lesson in their class and then upload the recording that evening to Thinkific. There won't be the live element of the online option, it will just be to watch back the recorded lesson at a time that suits you.
-
The classes have numbers after them - what does this mean?
If a class doesn't have a number next to it, it means all players are welcome but a level of experience is recommended and it isn't suitable for total beginners. 0 - Total beginner 1 - Beginner (with a little experience) 2 - Intermediate 3 - Advanced
-
I have another question
Email us at [email protected] or send a message to our facebook page - @ScottishCultureandTraditions-SC&T
-
What are the common tunes for?
It is for everyone to have a go at in their own time then come together at the end of term concert and all have a go at it together!
