Teaching Philosophy

Music is a great way of expressing one's self, and a way to bring your thoughts and emotions to life through sound. If it weren't for music, there wouldn't be the many brilliant songs and soundtracks throughout the world, and we would be missing something important. Being given the chance to explore and enjoy music since childhood brought a way to see the world in a new light.

Every student has a different learning pathway, and needs patient mentors that can understand and learn ways to bring out their best. I hope to be a teacher that can be as understanding and kind as the teachers I've had over the years, for their patience meant everything to me.

Musical Education

I've been studying piano from the age of five, and received my ARCT diploma in 2019. I am currently attending University of British Columbia working towards my Bachelors in Music. I'm grateful for the wonderful teachers I had the opportunity to learn from over the years.

Awards and Distinctions

I participated in the Kiwanis Music Festival and received the highest mark in the Senior Class Repertoire (March 2021). Awarded second place for the Mozart category, and 3rd place for both Etude and Concerto categories (April 2022).

I also participated in the White Rock Surrey Music Festival and was awarded second place in Romantic Repertoire and concerto piece (November 2021).

Special Skills and Training

My mother is a brilliant teacher who home schooled my brother and I for years. Watching her methods of teaching the both of us and knowing precisely how to teach and explain subjects in different styles, it makes me more determined to understand students' ways of learning so they can one day reach their goals and dreams while having fun!

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).
