Teaching Philosophy

My approach to teaching piano is all about making learning exciting and meaningful for each student. I want lessons to feel like more than just practice; I aim for each session to be a fun, inspiring experience that brings out each student’s creativity. From advanced conservatory learner to students looking to take up piano for fun, I am here to help you achieve your musical goals! I equip my students with a strong musical foundation that enables them to learn music that they are passionate about, and to help them develop a consistent, efficient practice routine that allows for constant musical progress and growth. For me, it’s all about creating an environment where students feel motivated, see their progress, and develop a real connection to music that lasts a lifetime.

Musical Education

I have attended the following schools earning the following degrees:
- University of Toronto - Bachelor's of Music
- Royal Conservatory of Music - ARCT Diploma

Awards and Distinctions

- First place at the Canadian Music Competition
- Second place in the Chopin Chopin Competition

Special Skills and Training

I have experience with music production and composition, which brings a unique dimension to my teaching. Having created my own pieces and worked behind the scenes in music production, I offer students insights into not only playing the piano but also the art of crafting and interpreting music. This experience allows me to guide students in exploring the creative side of music, from composing their own pieces to understanding how music comes together. I love helping students see the piano as more than an instrument—it’s a tool for expression, creativity, and even production.,

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).
