Teaching Philosophy

Music has always been a part of my life. While I am passionate about stage performance, I love teaching even more because I take pride in my students’ progress. Having received formal training at a conservatory, I have spent the past ten years reflecting on and refining my own learning techniques and insights. I believe that a formal introduction to music is a crucial foundation. Throughout the learning process, it is essential not only to acquire musical knowledge but also to deeply experience and enjoy music, as that is the most important aspect.

Musical Education

I began studying music at the age of five and continued my education at a conservatory. I hold a bachelor’s degree in music education and a master’s degree in vocal performance. During my undergraduate studies, I graduated as the top student in my major and delivered the commencement speech on behalf of the graduating class. I also earned first place in a comprehensive competition, excelling in five areas: vocal performance, piano playing, improvisational accompaniment, choral conducting, and dance. During my master’s studies, I focused on Italian opera singing and staging, and I had the opportunity to perform in concerts in Germany and Italy.

Special Skills and Training

Since childhood, I have studied dance, vocal music, and piano. At the conservatory, I won the all-around championship in five categories during a performance competition. In my 10 years of teaching, I have focused on providing comprehensive musical training for my students. My vocal and piano lessons often include integrated training, such as sight-singing, ear training, and playing while singing. I teach students ranging in age from 4 to 99, tailoring my teaching methods to suit each individual’s needs and abilities.

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).
