House keeping
1. I’ll be online 5 minutes before class so that we can still connect and chat before our session, really important at the moment.
2. Once the session starts, I / you will turn off your mics. Don’t worry you will still see and hear me. You just don’t need to hear each other.
3. I will not play music, just because of the sound quality/levels. There are some playlists pasted below if you have Spotify.
Alternatively you can check out my Spotify page Lee Hopkins for more music and playlists. Sometimes, I enjoy practicing without music - don’t be afraid to try that out.
