Piano Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Buckhead, GA

I get to know the children first then get them involved in the assingment with eagerness and excitement. Then the children are to go and show off their knowledge. That way they will know it much better than before. The knowlege is input into the student's brain, and then I have them output the knowledge; therefore it is being repeated, and instilled more and more into their brain everytime. I love to see children eager to learn, and even better try. I push the students who are struggling so that they will not get stepped on. I motivate them, and have them motivate theirselves and others around them. I give the students materials that they already know, and then start building from there. My belief is every student has a chance to succeed. I have changed my major a few times from Music therapy, to music, to music education, then finally I just decided that I just wanted to do education. I

My teaching style is that of a facilitator. I like to ensure that the concepts and principles are grasped so the student has an opportunity to apply the theory. I like to tailor my teaching style to the student's learning style. I enjoy helping a student realize that everyone learns differently and that it's okay to learn at their pace. I possess a Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting and over 25 years of experience in Accounting which includes Mergers & Acquisitions Due Diligence, Corporate Financial Accounting & Reporting, Non Profit Accounting and Governmental Accounting.

As part of a voluntary program to help educate my local community in Grand Cayman, I taught High School level Accounting and Principles of Business for 4 years between 2006 and 2010. This involved both the teaching of the subjects from first principles, and exam preparation for students. My Work as an accountant contributed to this as well as the experience I gained working for companies large and small on 2 continents. My style of teaching, whether it is children in church classes, those studying for high school, or executives in training, relies very much on meticulous preparation and personalization to those learning. I'm extremely patient, can very quickly put people at ease. This makes for more effective learning. My style of teaching, rather than overtly teaching students new things, builds on what they already know, and applying it to different situations. Learning is

My teaching style goes from both pedagogy to description. Once I understand the knowledge of the student, I speak to them on the level of what they know, depending on the age. Since I've worked with students from age 2 to adulthood, I try to relate to students based on their age as well. If the student is not very knowledgeable of music, I tend to explain things to make it plain. Often, professionals tend to speak "over" the student's head with technical words, so they have no clue as to how to produce a note. I use descriptions to make the idea more useful to the student. I am a caring person and I support my students more than the average teacher. If invited, I attend concerts and other performing functions outside of lessons. I've been teaching and performing music professionally for over 10 years. Since receiving my degree, I've taught chorus, currently teach private lessons, and pr

I have twenty-three years of experience teaching elementary music and seven years of teaching middle and high school music, chorus, and drama.

I can tutor elementary age children in any subject and can teach piano and keyboard at any level. I love children and am very patient and encouraging. I always look to find their strengths and help each child to recognize his/her own individual gifts and talents. I bring lots of energy, enthusiasm, and creativity to my instruction. Teaching has never been a "job" to me...it is a pa

I use positive motivation with my students, explaining how subject matter being covered should relate to them and their future successes. I try to link the subjects with current events and how lack of knowledge on specific subjects can cost them either financially or impact their health and well being. For example, when I encounter a senior who is not participating in class, I give them an employment application to fill out, explaining if they have difficulty completing it, they better join the class. I graduated LSU and was commissioned as an officer in the US Air Force. I completed Transportation Officer courses on vehicle fleet management, commercial transportation, and staff logistics officer training related to airlift terminal management and operations. I also attended and graduated from the Traffic Accident Investigation and Traffic Control course. I have been a business consultan

I enjoy working with all learning styles, and have had training in working with many types of exceptional learners, including those with various learning disabilities, ADD and ADHD, ASD, blindness, and giftedness. I am certified to teach both music (PreK-12th grade) and mathematics (6th grade-12th grade). I utilized my positions teaching music to also assist students that were having difficulty in Mathematics and Language Arts during my free periods. Throughout school, I have tutored the other students in my classes after-school when they were having difficulties. I enjoy catering to various learning styles, and do so with passion and fun! If you have a student that is frustrated or bored with the classroom environment, and you feel that they have not received enough individual attention, I will help them succeed. I believe in education of the student as a whole, and will use your studen

I believe that all children require a different method of teaching. My goal is to find the key to help them become motivated in learning. Sometimes children predetermine that they are not good at an individual subject. If you can find a way to make this subject interesting to them you have solved half the problem. I try to discover why the child is having problems in a certain area and solve this first. All children can learn and grow in their education with the right motivation. It is so rewarding to see the children obtain their goals. I am a highly dedicated individual with an Architectural and Engineering Background. I have an Associate of Science in Engineering and a Bachelor of Science in Architectural Engineering. I have high levels of training in Math and Science.
