Hello! My name is Evan Levine and I am currently pursuing a Masters degree in music performance at the University of Michigan. Originally from New Jersey, I have been teaching students between the ages of 6-18 for over 8 years in both private and group settings. I have taught a range of music styles, including; Rock, Jazz, Pop, Country and Classical music. I am also proficient in Music Theory and Music History and would be able to supplement that with instrument instruction. I believe that learning repertoire that the student is interested in is the fastest way to develop a passion for music. Positive encouragement is key, and I believe the teachers' job is to guide their students in what they want to do. Developing technical proficiency and understanding the emotions and intent of the music is the foundation of my teaching style.

I'm very much open to working at the student's current ability level and pacing. I expect the student to practice what we cover in lessons so the resulting lessons are used to cover new ground, not review for the full time. I have spent much of my degrees soaking up as much knowledge about Trumpet Pedagogy as possible, and posses a firm grasp on many of today's leading performance methods. • National Trumpet Competition Semifinalist- 2010 • Eastern Michigan University Concerto Competition Winner- 2009 • University of Tennessee Concerto Competition- 2010 Finalist • Jesse E.

I have experience teaching private piano and also teaching in the classroom. I have taught music to students of all ages for the past 15 years. During this time I was able to gain experience teaching choir as well as music theory. While teaching private piano I taught beginning students and intermediate levels of students. While recertifying for the State of Michigan, I studied the teaching of reading. I gained experience in reading tutoring by applying my educational concepts with individual students. Students of different cultures enjoyed musical concerts that I directed and organized. I am interested in the success of each student. When teaching reading I would research the very best system of teaching. Each individaul reader is in need of the proper method to help with any difficulties that he or she is having. I would identify these problems and then find the most accurate

I dealt directly with children and families from disenfranchised populations, demographically diverse populations, and special needs populations. What I value most is having the opportunity to work with adults and children simultaneously. This gave me a broad over-standing of how to approach very challenging situations. In addition, what I have found to be an effective tool when working with academically challenged youth is having patience, and showing unconditional positive self-regaurd. My resume highlights my ability, knowledge, and expertise in individual and group therapy at a master level in the field of social work. During my time at Eastern Michigan University, I was able to advance my skill set and knowledge-base by being in a supervisory role. As I matriculated, I learned how to multi-task as I was a graduate student and an employee for EMU. In my role I tutored and advised col

Since a high school student I dream about to be a teacher. Now I think its my passion to teach and prepare our next generation for future and to make them successful in their career and life. I love to teach children and never get tense or hyper due to their mistakes, because children are in learning stage and we have to make them to learn as much as they can. I prefer to relate the study topic with some aspect of child's life to give him clear idea and better understanding about the topic. I have earned Bs degree from University of Memphis with Chemistry as major and Mathematics as minor. After graduation I been working as research associate at University of Memphis in analytical chemistry division. During my research work I have made three manuscripts for publication in American chemical society. During my studying and research I have learned many skills including writing, grammatical

I am used to teaching both students close to my age and students younger than I. I always try to explain ideas in ways that make the student think. I never like to hand answers to students, so I do my best at having students learn in their own way with someone helping them along. Being a virtuoso, I believe practice makes perfect in every subject. The way to best understand something new is to review it and practice it. I have a substantial amount of patience when it comes to teaching. I am also a very generous, kind, and humorous person who has learned to live life to its fullest. I work hard at making friends with everyone I meet everywhere, and I believe your best friend can also be your greatest influence in learning. Being currently enrolled in one of the Top 20 schools in the state of Michigan, learning is something that comes to me as second nature. Math, English, Science, Foreign

My teaching style is very flexible to accommodate different needs and understandings. I first probe to find inadequacies in the student’s knowledge, then present the material in an easy to understand manner primarily focusing on the student’s weak areas. My patience and easy going attitude greatly help tutoring sessions because the student does not feel reprimanded, but rather encouraged through the frustration and mistakes to achieve a greater understanding. My inspiration for tutoring/teaching is pride in my student: there is no greater joy than seeing him/her succeed. I provided tutoring services in high school and college, thus gained much valuable experience. As such, the most popular question I received during university was "Why are you not an engineering major?" Through earning four BBA degrees in various areas of Accounting/Finance/IT in 3 years, I learned my area of excell

I have a hands on teaching style that mixes fun activities with an emphasis on asking children questions. I pay attention to each individual student and try to figure out what their learning style is. I try to center activities around how they learn (ie. if they are a textile learner, I'll bring in physical shapes to work on geometric problems as opposed to worksheets). I believe that application and explanation to others are the best route of learning, so I like to have kids who are at different levels work together on subjects they may have difficulties with. I have had nearly five years of experience in tutoring and mentoring. During college I was an English as a Second Language (ESL) tutor at two different non-profits. I currently am an Americorps member in the Downriver communities. In this position I teach ESL, GED prep, after-school tutoring, as well as a science program aime

As a Professional Counselor I have learned to interact with others in a very respectful, sensitive way. It is my job to lead people to conclusions without actually telling them the answer. I believe this is very similar to teaching. I have spent the last 3 ½ years working with parents that have at-risk and out of control teenagers. I had to teach them parenting skills as well as coping skills. I used many different techniques to do so including modeling and role-play. We went over worksheets together and practiced changing interactions. In my undergraduate years I tutored other students in the math lab. These were students that were in Algebra or college math. I obtained a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology so I took through Calculus II as well as Quantitative methods and statistics. I have always considered math and science to be my strong suits.
