Teaching Philosophy

I believe that every singer has the potential to impact their community in positive ways; and it’s my passion to help singers find that shining light. I have found that most singers are ignored - not because they can’t sing, but because they don’t have the support or encouragement they need to become the best version of themselves that they can be. I put together fun, engaging vocal lessons for singers of all ages to find their true voice and finally be heard. My favourite thing is to see the excitement and progression of a student who starts to really understand a concept or technique; especially when they might be shy at first, and then begin to open up. I love to see that instant moment of surprise and joy when a student achieves something with their voice they have never done before.

Musical Education

I have a Bachelor of Arts in media/music from Ryerson University, which included music production, voice recording, and creation for film, TV, Radio. I have studied music since the age of seven years old, to present day. I studied drums from the age of seven to ten; trombone from age eleven to thirteen; and I studied piano until the age of sixteen. I also trained vocally for almost a decade. My teacher was classically trained and incorporated contemporary repertoire as well. My training has led me to work with some of the top musicians in the country and the world.

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).
