A system for and method of instruction is provided. A user initiates a lesson with an instructor which begins a video call. During the video call, the instructor records one or more recording of the user and edits the recording with mark-up, which can then be played back to the user to aid in the instruction. Each of the video call, the recording, and the mark-up are recorded as an independent recording layer, while the entire lesson is also recorded. The system and method utilize recording techniques so as to not deplete the resources of the user devices. Upon conclusion of the lesson, the recording of the lesson and each layer is provided to the users.
