Dear Michigan ASTA Members,

     As the Studio Chair for the Michigan ASTA, I am excited to announce a
valuable opportunity for both private studio teachers and classroom
educators in our community. In response to the growing demand for effective
virtual teaching methods, I am hosting a free 45-minute clinic over Zoom
titled "Optimizing Your Computer Setup for Virtual Teaching."

In this informative session, I will share insights and strategies I've
gathered over 15 years of private teaching experience, with a particular
focus on enhancing your online teaching environment. Whether you're an
experienced online instructor or just getting started, this clinic will
provide valuable tips and tools to elevate your virtual teaching game.
