My comments on tutoring Saxophone : Music studio offering clarinet, saxophone, flute, trumpet, and recorder lessons taught by the Principal Clarinetist of the Livingston Symphony Orchestra.

For the past twenty years, Dimitry has been teaching students of all ages to play the clarinet, saxophone, flute, trumpet, and recorder. Students will learn proper techniques, posture, breathing, phrasing, articulation, tone, rhythm, sight reading, solfeggio, music theory, and music history. They will also learn to play solos (with and without accompaniment), as well as duets (along with the instructor). Private lessons are customized to meet each student's goals, such as preparation for regional and state band auditions, concerts, and other music competitions.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been playing music my whole life. I began playing piano at six years old, saxophone at ten, bass guitar at thirteen, and guitar at fourteen. Throughout my high school career I played a variety of rock band gigs on guitar, bass, and keyboards; I also played a variety of jazz gigs on saxophone. Currently I am a music student at William Paterson University, and am graduating this May with a degree in Jazz Saxophone Performance.
My teaching style varies from student to student based on playing level, musical interests, and personality. I use a mix of method books and aural learning techniques. The student's musical priorities always come first!

A Little Bit About Me...

As a student who has dabbled in so many areas, it is easy for me to assess when a teacher/professor is not explaining a concept in a method that helps the students. I have previous experience tutoring, but my teaching talent comes from my role as the unofficial tutor for most of my classes. I can see why students are missing the concept and I am creative enough to devise new approaches.
I am a successful graduate of Susquehanna University, having earned a BA in International Studies. This study of cultural anthropology allowed me ample experience with writing, grammar, and research.

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching, and specifically teaching music, has been my passion for years. While tutoring, I use a wide variety of methods, including metaphors, diagrams- whatever the student requires to learn the material. I am exceptionally patient with struggling students, because I know that losing patience solves nothing, and given the right materials and knowledge, the student will succeed. I believe very strongly in the potential of people to do exceptionally well, even when they may not realize that they are capable. Students will find me to be friendly, knowledgeable, and when the situation calls for it, very intense in my desire to educate. I wish to help people find their own musical potential.
Although I have only held my BM in Music Education for a little over a year, I have always sought out opportunities to hone my skills as a teacher. While I was still earning that degree, I w ... read more

I feel comfortable and very much enjoy working with people ranging from children to college students. I approach teaching with energy and understanding and will always adapt my methods to different learning styles. I believe strongly in experiential learning. Therefore, I practice engaging my students with conversation, implementing practical-life contexts to our work, and manipulating visuals and materials for complementary comprehension. I come from a Montessori background and I frequently try to incorporate Montessori methods in my lessons. I consider myself an intuitive, compassionate, and shrewd teacher/tutor, and I try to make certain that all my students reach their study goals through my assistance.

A Little Bit About Me...

My commitment to tutoring as community service started in High School and continued through my years as an undergraduate at Earlham College. I have been a tutor/mentor for 7 years, teaching Life Skills, English, Social Studies, History, Biology, Chemistry, English, French, Piano, Voice, and Music Theory. My education has provided me with extensive experience with proofreading, editing, laboratory and field research and the ensuing reports, papers, and presentations.
I have been a tutor, mentor, au pair, babysitter, and teaching assistant. Through these experiences, I have grown into a patient teacher who rejoices in the small and the large achievements of my students. I believe that children and young adults can be focused, efficient learners if they are taught learning skills that will help them throughout their lives.
