Teaching Philosophy

Music has been a huge part of my life and soul throughout my lifetime. Music speaks the unspoken, and cures the incurable. As social beings we all depend on music on daily basis to pass our time. Musical training allows one's ears to dig into other dimensions of music and sound and brings the true meaning, message and joy of every musical note.

Musical Education

-DEC of Music from Marianopolis college.
- Music student at McGill university for three years, studying with the great professor Matt Haimovitz.
- McGill conservatory exams - Collegial 2 level.
- Years of experience in choir, orchestra and ensemble activities.

Special Skills and Training

I spent my childhood in many different musical lessons and classes. I participated in many different choir groups and orchestras. Having experienced many different styles of teachings as a student allowed me to develop my own unique style of teaching. I now have more than 2 years of teaching and working students from a variety of ages.

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).
