Teaching Philosophy

My teaching philosophy is to make each session as interactive as possible. I believe that an interactive approach is more memorable and can be more fun. With that I will find new and unique ways tailored to each student to make the atmosphere more uplifting and exciting. I will also adapt to how the student prefers to be taught. I pride myself to be very adaptive and flexible when it comes to others needs while also providing an education that is new and exciting. Music has always come across as a universal language to me, it's a beautiful mosaic that is so much deeper than surface level, I cannot wait to share the true beauty of it all with my students.

Musical Education

I am currently finishing up my Bachelor of Music Degree with an Education minor at MacEwan University this upcoming fall semester. With my primary instrument being voice. Throughout my life I studied a series of instruments from piano at the age of 6 by my grandmother, self teaching myself guitar at the age of 12, and finally improving my vocal abilities at the age of 20 by MacEwan Alumni, professors and sessional teachers at MacEwan for the next 4 years.

Special Skills and Training

I spent my childhood learning to play piano from my grandmother whom has her doctorate in music. Growing up it has become a great goal of mine to become at least half of the musician and teacher she is. I spent my school years participating in choir, musical theater, and was very involved in local talent shows where I would perform with my guitar. After Highschool I knew that if I didn't pursue my love for music that I may never get the opportunity. I started to take Voice lessons from a MacEwan alumni student for just over a year. My training really then developed over my 4 years at MacEwan with incredible teachers. Without the influence of all of these people I truly wouldn't be the person I am today, or have the confidence in my teaching abilities.

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).
