| Q |
How can I get John Cairns
to be my bagpipe instructor? |
| A |
For
students who are in our area, private
one on one lessons are provided in our
office. For students who are unable
to travel to our location, lessons can
be provided using modern technology
while you remain in the comfort of your
own home.
All students will be taught using the
Bagpipe Solutions by John Cairns unique
curriculum, which consists of 18 progressive
training levels, each contained in an
independent tutor.
Please check our Instruction/Lessons
page for details. |
|
| Q |
How
do I print a page from your website
so part of the information doesn't get
cut off? |
| A |
Changing
the settings in your print menu to landscape
rather than portrait should provide
you with the full page of information. |
|
| Q |
When will the next volumes
of the tutoring curriculum be available? |
| A |
Volumes
will be available for purchase as they
are produced. We anticipate that a new
volume will be produced every 4-6 weeks.
Keep visiting our website for updates! |
|
| Q |
Do I have to purchase
the CD's? |
| A |
It
is recommended that students purchase
the CD's as they contain audio examples
of the practical requirements and provide
a standard of proficiency for the student
to use as an evaluation guide. |
|
| Q |
When will the videos
be available for purchase? |
| A |
Rather
than disrupt the production and completion
of the series of tutor books and CDs
in order to produce the instructional
videos, we have decided to postpone
the production of the videos until the
entire series of tutor books and CDs
has been printed and made available
to students. This will ensure that students
will not have their progress interrupted
in any way. Keep checking for updates
on the progress of our materials |
