some more updates

December 18th, 2009

It has been for a while since I last posted on this site. I have been very involved with both of my personal and professional life, it only partially explained why I have not continued with the recording of new lessons.

Here is my dilemma; I might as well just share it with you all. Maybe you can come up with some ideas or recommendations.

1). I would like to continue with a series of better-organized lessons using the similar approach in the past lessons. I recorded past lessons at home with modest equipment and the outcome was good, but not great. If I am about to spend a lot of time to prepare and record lessons, I am very hesitant to do it home, I would like to have studio recording quality – so I need to rent a recording studio. I have been contacting many studios here where I live right now (Vancouver, Canada), it seems to be more expensive than my resources allow me to invest;

2). Monologue isn’t my style. A student with the right aptitude, commitment and availability is not as easy to find as you would think, especially to get the permission to broadcast and without pay; Besides the student has to live in Vancouver, Canada…

3). You may not realize this, but I spend countless hours to maintain the site, dealing with html, css and Javascript code. Just to get rid of the spam can take easily several hours out of my precious time every month. It’s very frustrating that I can’t get the website work the way I want, given my non-technical background.

If you think you have some input to this, feel free to leave your comment here.
