Teaching Philosophy

Music is a huge part of my life and plays a significant role in who I am. I think that everyone should get the chance to see if music can be as important for them as it is for me.

Musical education is important for everyone because it teaches us the fundamentals of sound and rhythm. Music is used as a means of self-expression and communication with each other. As humans, we have long seen evidence of this throughout history. Expanding on our internal ability to create sound and rhythm will help us to live life more fully.

Musical Education

I finally started pursuing my dream of being an independent artist in recent years. I have released some singles on all major streaming platforms and am working on my debut album. I am a self-taught vocalist and have studied with a vocal coach. I have played at small events and hope to continue to larger ones.

I am a well-rounded musician and would love to pass on some of my knowledge to students.

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).
