Piano Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Carrollton, OH

I firmly believe that every child is capable of learning hard concepts, they just have to be taught in a way that is applicable to them. So I first like to get to know the student and try to figure out their learning style and teach them according to how they learn. This helps me figure out where the root of the problem is so I can fix it. Then I like to use a lot of visual and hands-on lessons because children need that to really grasp concepts and to apply it in different situations. I also like to question them to lead them to come to the answer and concepts themselves in order to increase their curiosity, desire to learn, and self-esteem. I graduated recently in Elementary education, so I have a broad knowledge in all subject areas. I got in the top 15th percentile on the Praxis content knowledge test. I am well-trained in different teaching techniques as well as Elementary content

I started playing piano at the age of two. This was do to the fact that my grandmother was a professional piano instructor. I completed eight years of Music through the School on The following Instruments, Mallet Percussion, Trombone, Piano, Minor Voice.

I am fluent in Piano; Marimba; xylophone, Timpani, and other mallet percussion. I am currently a church pianist of the past four years.

I teach children and adults according to the wishes of the learner. I love teaching music theory and aural skills; however, I also love to make people discover learning music at their own pace and developments. For example, my husband learns to play certain music that I picked up by ear on the piano which he chose to learn. I teach him how to play something and he eventually learns to dictate it on sheet paper from learning it. He is getting valuable musical knowledge from this, which is coming out in the form of pitch and dictation. As a music Education major, I studied the vocal techniques and instruments of piano, flute and piccolo. I have studied piano since age four - which is 28 years - from a private teacher by the name of Judy Nihlen. I have also been a member of a French Sorority in college, speaking almost fluent French. I have composed several musical compositions growin

My teaching style is one that will allow the students to learn at their own level. I believe that each student's learning needs are unique and that the educator must be open and flexible to providing instruction that will meet the needs of all learners. I also believe that the educator must be creative in their approach to help the learner grasp and comprehend the material. I am currently working on my Mild and Moderate teaching certification. My goal is to work with students with cognitive and specific learning disabilities. I recently completed a Reading, Writing and Math workshop through North Coast Educational Services, which has enabled me to learn different strategies and techniques to help students struggling in reading and math.

I earned my Bachelor degree in Elementary Education with a minor in Mathematics. I was a substitute teacher for three years. I recently earned nine credit hours of additional education in order to renew my teaching license with the State of Ohio. Currently a stay-at-home mother, I give piano lessons to students at various levels of ability. I took piano lessons for eight years and am considered to be an advanced player. I love the experience of teaching children and seeing the light in their eyes when they understand what they are learning. I believe each child learns in their own way and in their own time. As such, I believe in going along with the student's ability. I do not believe in high pressure teaching. I am patient and easy going. If a student is struggling, I back up and try another approach. I strive for my students to enjoy what they are learning as much as possible
