Teaching Philosophy

Music has been an important part of my life. Learning music and know how to play music can be a very pleasant experiment for any of us. I really enjoy sharing everything I know with all my students. I like to design my classes that is unique for each of my students because they can be individually different in all ways. I believe that each students will need different way to study and I'm very happy to design my classes specially for every one of my students.

Musical Education

I am currently completing my Bachelor of Music in piano performance at Western University. I've completed RCM Level 10 diploma in my high school with First Honor with distinction.

I have been trained professionally for piano performance since I was 3. I had many experienced in teaching. I have also learned with many different teachers, therefore, I have a very good sense of great teaching method and style.

I have earned many scholarship during the time of my study at Western University include Phyllis Marie Kwasnica Music Scholarship, The Western Scholarship of Distinction, Western International Provost's Scholar, Dr. Sherwood Fox Music Award, Larry and Susan Agranove Award.

Special Skills and Training

- residencies and festivals: Orford Academy - non-degree certifications (Suzuki, Orff, ABRSM, RCM etc.): RCM Level 10 - any experience makes you special as an educator: I once helped my mom's friend kid to prepare for one of the music exam. It was not an official teaching job, but it is a wonderful opportunity. When I see people succed because of my help, I feel truly happy and enjoy the moment that I help someone achieve their goals.

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).
