Teaching Philosophy

I belive all students may learn and succeed in performing on a musical instrument. Creating the perfect fit between the student's interest, level and the studyed repertoiry is the first step in establishing a successful learning experience. Over my years of teaching music, I have developped various technics that suit students of all ages and levels. I make sure my students practice rythms, melodies, and finger technics in efficient and different manners.

Musical Education

I am a professional classical guitarist and have been studying music for more than 10 years. Indeed, I have completed a certificate in jazz music at UQÀM university, then I have obtained a college diploma in music at St-Laurent Cegep. More recently, I have finished my bachelor's degree at Montreal's university. This summer, I have obtained my master's degree at the Laval University of Quebec city. I have won the best performance competition during my final master's degree presentation.

Awards and Distinctions

I have participate to international guitar competition on 2016. During my final master's presentation, I won the best performance award.

Special Skills and Training

I have developed programs skills to make sound samplings such as Reaper. This samplings can help students with their daily practices. Reaper works to record songs and edit videos in high quality. I know how to improvise in any kind of rhythms like Jazz, Blues, Latin music, South American rhythms and more. I can teach how to sing, how to compose, how to make arrangements and more.

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).
