TTTV014: Harnessing the Power of the Internet with Joy Morin
Do you ever feel overwhelmed by the online world? Are you hearing conflicting advice about where to start? Joy Morin is here to make it easy for you to harness the power of the internet, without letting it take over your life. There are simple ways of being online, and using the fantastic tools available. It doesn't have to be difficult, and it can be extremely effective. Although in many ways piano teaching is one of the most traditional professions, it is rapidly developing and expanding in the technology age. We can use the internet not only to market to potential students and grow our business, but also to stay connected with other teachers around the world. There's a rapidly growing community of piano teachers out there, ready to support, inspire and engage with you. So take a listen to today's podcast and get ready to jump in (or just dip a toe if that's all you're ready for)! Are you enjoying these podcasts? I’d love for you to leave a podcast review.
