In my own music teaching experience and research on music teaching
I do think the medium as well as the method are important. Each
medium has benefits and drawbacks and varies by the subjects being
taught. The proportions of how much each medium should be used or
is useful also varies by subject.

I still say you need that person right in front of you, where you can sense
their vibes, feel their emotional state. Opportunities to get your points
across come in moments where there's a window of opportunity. If you miss
it, you can fire barrages of information at them all day long, and never
reach them. In short, you have to get your students to EXPERIENCE within.
That's how they learn, and they're all different.
On my website, I show a lot of visual information, but it's based upon one
premise, everything has its origin in the common structure shared by all
twelve keys, and I use the same Five basic Key positions we all use to show
everything.
In the "Read and Re Read these, If you're serious" section, I try to relate
the true secrets of how to learn. I doubt if these get read too often.
More than likely, most just skim through looking at the pictures.
