Question for prospective producers/people interested in improving their production skills. - General

So I'm planning on starting to teach one on one music production lessons out of my home studio (think in the same vein as someone giving piano lessons), but I've also been toying with the idea of doing one on one tutoring over the internet using skype screen sharing or something (still have to figure out exactly how I want to do it and what the best method will be) The lessons would pretty much be student guided. I'll ask some questions to see where your current skill level is at and where your interests lie and figure out where we should go from there. If I get enough interest I'm also going to be trying to set up collaborations between students with similar interests and skill levels. I'll also be providing all current students with free feedback and critique on any tracks they produce (let's say current student means you've taken a lesson within the past two weeks for now) So my question is, would you be interested in this? And if so how much would you be willing to pay for an hour long session?

This actually sounds incredible. I would love to participate in something like this. I know a decent bit about what I'm doing, but there's also a lot I don't know. I'm not sure how much I would be willing to pay per hour, I'm unaware of the prices of stuff such as this.

I think ten bucks an hour would be pretty fair?

I like the sound of this!

Anyone else care to chime in? Still trying to decide how feasible this is! Thanks in advance :)

I don't think I would be able, due to time and money, but I truly think this is a good idea. You should definitely go through with this!

I would say charge as much as a private music teacher (i charge 30 dollars/45 minute violin lessons).

I personally wouldn't pay for it, there are loads of excellent tutorials on the internet for free.

Tutorials can't watch what you're doing and tell you when you're doing things wrong, and they can't give you feedback on what you're working on either ;)

[QUOTE=KmartSqrl;29989429] Do people feel that $30/hr would be a fair price? [/QUOTE] I think that's kinda steep. I personally wouldn't pay that much.

From a business standpoint I can't really justify doing hour long sessions for $10. After you take time spent setting lessons up and finding students I'd be making significantly less than $10/hr, which just isn't feasible.

kmart, i'd seriously take your lessons, good thoughts man. Keep me posted :)

[QUOTE=Yur|ko;29990933]I think that's kinda steep. I personally wouldn't pay that much.[/QUOTE] Good luck finding someone to teach music lessons (of any kind) for slightly more than minimum wage.

Hell, my guitar classes cost way more than that. I'd be glad to pay you the money if the classes were in person. I just don't [B][I]personally[/I][/B] like the idea of giving lessons over the internet.

I would love this
