Teaching Philosophy

I believe that every person can find joy in music and my mission as a teacher is to help you find that joy. Through warm-ups, skill-developing exercises and fun musical pieces, we can build confidence in our ability to overcome challenges while we express ourselves through the music we make.

It doesn't matter if you've never played a note before or if you can already play a million of them, we can always improve and there's usually a fun way to do it!

Musical Education

I earned a BMus in classical clarinet performance studying jointly at Mount Royal University and the University of Calgary with Paul Dornian. I have also learned so much from performing extensively with seasoned professional musicians on the classical, jazz and folk scenes and am delighted to have the opportunity to share all the tips and tricks I've picked-up along the way!

Special Skills and Training

I have performed in many festivals (classical, jazz, blues, bluegrass, and folk fests) and have played in masterclasses/lessons with James Campbell, David Shifrin, Eduard Brunner, Victor Goines and Eddie Daniels among others. I have also taught over 3000 clarinet & saxophone workshops for school and community bands so I feel well equipped to help students of any age achieve their goals.

Policies


1. Cancellation Policy

Lessons not cancelled or rescheduled with at least 24 hours notice are billable to the client and payable to the teacher. This does not of course apply to travel fees unless the notice is effectively given at the door and the teacher has travelled to the location.

2. Cessation (quitting) Policy

A client must provide a 2 lesson notice period to stop lessons. So a weekly student needs to give 2 weeks of notice, a biweekly student works out to 3 weeks notice and a twice weekly student works out to a week of notice.

3. Illness Policy

Lessons cancelled due to illness or extraordinary circumstances with less than 24 hours notice remain billable to the client and payable to the teacher.

BAH teachers are encouraged to offer a make-up lesson at a future date in the interest of client relations and general goodwill. This only makes sense as teaching a student with the flu for example, will ruin the rest of your week's employment.

No more than 2 lessons may be made up due to illness within a 60 day period.

4. Rescheduling Policy

Any lesson can be cancelled or rescheduled with at least 24 hours notice.

Summer Vacation and Extended Absence Policy

Clients may schedule longer absences for trips etc. 24 hours notice is required.

It is normal and typical for students and about 20% of our teachers to schedule a break in the summer. We do not enforce a notice period (see cessation of lessons) at the end of a long summer break.

5. Evaluation Period

There are no free trial lessons with Beethoven at Home but we do offer a 2 lesson evaluation period where it is easy to try out a teacher. There are no free lessons during the evaluation period and clients may choose to discontinue the lessons at any time by providing the required 24 hours notice. After the student's 3rd lesson the required 2 lesson notice period will apply (see cessation of lessons above).
