Teaching Philosophy

I believe that teaching music is a collaborative and dynamic process that should be tailored to each individual. Every student is unique, and I strive to create lessons that reflect their personality, interests, and goals. I approach teaching with an open mind, always welcoming new ideas and methods to keep lessons engaging and inspiring.

My goal is to cultivate a love for music while building a strong foundation in theory, history, and technique. I encourage students to explore their creativity and develop their skills at their own pace, celebrating their progress along the way. By fostering a supportive and flexible learning environment, I aim to help each student discover their potential and grow as confident musicians and individuals.

Musical Education

I hold a degree in arts from the University of Art and Culture in Tehran, where I pursued a post-secondary education in music and cultural studies. My academic journey included studying music theory, music history, harmony, and composition, which provided me with a strong foundation in both the practical and theoretical aspects of music.

From an early age, I developed a passion for music and performance. I studied piano during my childhood, which nurtured my appreciation for classical music and technique. Additionally, I received vocal training, further enhancing my understanding of musical expression and performance.

These experiences have shaped my dedication to music and art, allowing me to combine technical expertise with creative insight in various projects and collaborations.

Special Skills and Training

I’m passionate about teaching music and inspiring creativity in my students. My approach is to make lessons engaging and tailored to each individual’s style. I help students develop their unique voice through **composition**, guiding them in building original pieces and experimenting with musical form and harmony. In **harmony**, I focus on understanding chord structures and voice leading, which helps create more expressive music. Through **solfege**, I teach pitch recognition and sight-singing to strengthen ear training, allowing students to become more intuitive musicians. I also emphasize **ear training**, helping students identify intervals, chords, and rhythms to improve their overall musicianship. My goal is to foster a supportive, positive learning environment where students feel confident to explore music and grow as both musicians and individuals.

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).
