Teaching Philosophy

Music has been an essential part of my life for as long as I can remember. Learning and understanding music has brought me such a deep joy that I can’t help but share it with everyone I know. With time and practice, I believe anyone can reach a level of proficiency in music such that it can enrich their lives forever.

No matter what instrument, no matter what age, music and sound are waiting for you with open arms, and I try to encourage that philosophy in my teaching. As long as you remain patient and passionate, you will succeed!

Musical Education

I studied voice at the University of Toronto for Jazz Voice, which included an education in advanced music theory, arranging, composition, and performance.

In my own studies, I perform guitar, bass, ukulele, and piano in myriad styles, such as pop, rock, jazz, blues, and other contemporary genres.

Special Skills and Training

Before I became a professional teacher, I taught my family and friends various instruments to tremendous success. To quote them, I am a patient educator and very knowledgeable in many genres. My passion for music has also led me to explore many roads, from audio engineering and electronic music production, to studying theory, to performing in bands and solo. I found this necessary to become the most well-rounded musician I could be!

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).
