Featured Teacher of the Week–John C Campbell and Lessonface

Laura Berlage

“I’ve got exciting news for you!” T-Claw, director of online programming for John C Campbell Folk School relayed during a class scheduleing phone call.

“Oh?” Well, might as well get ready for anything. Life can always throw surprises!

“Lessonface wants to feature you as teacher of the week! That’s pretty special, since it’s almost always musicians.”

“Awesome! What do I need to do?”

Soon, I was in the depths of an interview, which I would love to share with you! Lessonface is a platform for hosting Zoom classes, started by a former work student from JCC. The two organizations have partnered together to bring folk school classes online since the start of the pandemic, and I’ve been honored to be a part of that team since the fall of 2023.

The questions were insightful and a delight to answer. You can find the full interview and upcoming class pictures and information via the link below!
