Teaching Philosophy

I believe that the role of music education is to encourage students to search for themselves what the meaning of music is. To be successful in music does not mean to excel at an instrument, but instead, to cultivate a love and appreciation for music. Music has a lifelong impact on all people, no matter if you go into it as a career or not. I tailor my teaching style to the student’s personality and individual needs, collaborate with the student, and am their biggest advocate. I teach in a way where the student can independently identify and transfer concepts learned in the lesson within and outside of music.

Musical Education

I have studied the violin since the age of 4 and was a full scholarship student at the Phil and Eli Taylor Academy at the Royal Conservatory of Music. I also studied at the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston as a Dean's Scholar and am currently pursuing my bachelor's degree at the Glenn Gould School of Music.

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).
