Teaching Philosophy

Music can seem overwhelming and oftentimes a person wonders where to even begin. There is so much depth and joy in this wonderful gift from God and I endeavour always to make the seemingly complicated simple and clear. So I always seek to understand my students and how they understand first before the exercise and assignments. I stand with and believe in every student's inborn ability to overcome challenges which leads to a greater sense of joy and freedom especially music. No matter the age or education level, everyone can and deserves to enjoy this wonderful gift of music.

Musical Education

I've studied classical piano for over 20 years and hold a ARCT Diploma in Piano Performance from the Royal Conservatory of Music in Canada. I have also performed at various music festival all across Ontario. The majority of my piano training was under the mentorship of Ms. Ella Poret. My music theory training was under Dr. Gordon Mckinnon. Since 2010, I have had the privilege of leading and playing on worship teams in contemporary and hymnal styles. I have attended numerous sacred music seminars over the last 5 years and am always seeking for education opportunities in music and teaching.

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).
