Teaching Philosophy

Music is life. Music is fun. Music is and will always be a gift to us no matter our age.

As a music/piano teacher, my goal is to help learners grow, identify new sides of themselves, and apply lessons learnt in problem-solving. Wondering how this is possible with children as young as four (4) years old? All learners are intelligent and innovative. However, when the right and fun approach is used, learning the piano never feels like a difficult task but rather a companion.
I believe the best way to learn is by doing. This helps my students feel confident, successful and creative.

Working with learners has taught me to:
1. be more creative and diverse in my teaching approach
2. understand them and be tolerant
3. be attentive and reflect on my teaching practices after each lesson.

Music is practical, and the more we do, the better we become. In helping learners understand music, they put it into practice in different ways that help them achieve success, confidence and creative skills.

You made the right choice.

Musical Education

I have attended the following schools earning the following degrees:
University of Toronto, Canada - Masters in Music Educators
University of Education, Winnerba, Ghana- Bachelor of Music Education.
My mother taught me the piano, growing up as a child. During my undergrad, my tutors, Sita Korley and John Francis Annan took over in teaching me the piano.

Awards and Distinctions

The Duke of Edinburgh international award (Gold & Bronze)

Special Skills and Training

I am very great and innovative when it comes to teaching music, songs, games and acting (especially with children). I also have skills in organizing events such as music shows, birthday parties etc.

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).
