Teaching Philosophy

Music is more than just notes and rhythms—it's a powerful form of expression that connects us all. With years of experience teaching students from ages 4 to adults, I understand that every individual has a unique musical voice waiting to be discovered. My teaching philosophy focuses on creating an inspiring and supportive environment where students of all ages can explore their potential and grow as musicians.


I believe that music education should be an exciting journey, fueled by curiosity and creativity. Whether you are just starting out or looking to refine your skills, my approach helps each student unlock their potential and tell their own story through music. My goal is to make every lesson a joyful experience, where you feel both encouraged and inspired.

Musical Education

I gratuated from Moscow Tchaikovsky Conservatory (Master's Degree of Music Performance and Education). My education is related to musicology. I have a big experience of teaching piano, music theory, music history (more than 10 years)

Special Skills and Training

Certificate in New Media in Contemporary Art Program, Moscow school of contemporary art (2021–2022) Certificate in Sound Design, Moscow Music School (2021) I grew up surrounded by music from an early age, as my mother gave private lessons right in our home. From a young age, I was fascinated by the way she shared her passion and skill with her students. As I got older, I discovered musicology, which allowed me to look at music from different angles, as well as arranging and producing music. In addition to teaching, I also worked as a presenter of the children's educational project "Big Music for the Little Ones" in Moscow (for which I also wrote the original musical accompaniment), and was a presenter of the International Tchaikovsky Competition. These experiences enriched my understanding of music and teaching. Currently, I am a musician in the electronic duet "Tonkaya Sherst", and also a sound designer (I create advertising jingles and audio branding for various companies).

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).
