Teaching Philosophy

Music is an important to my life and has helped me discover lots about myself. I believe it is a great opportunity to be able to share and teach this experience to others, and I feel joy seeing students progress to their potential. I find it important to find what an individual students learning style is and to follow that unique journey before any other possible paths.

Musical Education

I have a BMus in Classical Guitar Performance at the University of Toronto, which mainly focused on performance aspects of music.
I studied classical guitar with various teachers, principally Dr.Jeffrey McFadden whom is very relevant in the Canadian Classical Guitar Scene. Other teachers include Jorge Caballero, and Rob Macdonald. Through my degree I also attended summer study programs and worked with great guitarists such as Judicaël Perroy in Tignes, France and René Izquierdo in his famous “El Camino” workshop in Carrión de los Condes, in Spain.
Before my University studies I studied with a great teacher in Winnipeg, Dr.Ian Hodges. This was a great introduction to the classical world of music and I aspire to give the same to prospective students.

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).
