Teaching Philosophy

Music is my heart. It wakes me up every morning and fills me with inspiration, passion, love and joy. I believe that music has a place inside each and everyone of us. It is a way to heal, a way to share and a way feel.

A musician is a story teller and a listener. Being a musician is a never ending practice and learning experience.
Through listening to others and ourselves, it takes dedication, focus and an open mind.
It is never too late to learn and begin a musical journey, it will be with you forever!

Musical Education

I have attended the following schools earning the following certificates/degrees:
• McGill conservatory sec 3 ear training and theory
• Marianopolis College: DEC in Music, Jazz Voice

I am currently a student at York University studying to receive a bachelors degree in Jazz and Gospel music Performance.

Special Skills and Training

I have been taught by Jazz Vocalists Ranee Lee and Sacha Williamson for over 2 years. I have been apart of numerous choirs, such as the McGill University Chorus and the York University Gospel choir. I have a lot of experience as a vocalist singing with big bands, small rhythm sections, solo work and more! I have been a freelance musician for years now and have performed in renowned venues such as Tanna Hall, Place Des Arts, Thé Upstairs Jazz Bar and Grill etc… Lastly, I have experience writing music, recording and producing! I have 2 singles out entitled “Off The Rails” and “There’s Nothing To Tell”.

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).
