Lauren Wasynczuk - Saxophonist, Conductor & Music Educator

At the core of my teaching philosophy lies the belief that teaching and learning go hand in hand and that effective teaching depends on successful communication between teacher and student. A music lesson is a collaborative effort. Not only does a student hopefully learn in his or her lessons, the teacher learns from the students! My teaching “techniques” are solutions – born from the need to solve a specific challenge with any particular student. In the teaching process itself, putting myself in the student’s shoes allows me to consistently find solutions that work for each individual student and grow as a music teacher. In order to generate collaboration in a lesson, I believe in creating an atmosphere that encourages participation and involvement. My goal is to motivate and challenge my students and help them to enjoy the music they play. A motivated student assumes responsibility an ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am high school student, going to be a senior next year. While I am young, I can provide an excellent tutoring experience for anyone, regardless of age. I have played all saxophones for a combined 7 years. I scored A's in every class I have listed as a specialty. Though I am not technically a professional educator, I have tutored many before and have helped turn F students into A students.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have an extensive educational background in instructing and teaching students in grades K-12. With work experience in public, private, homeschool, and charter school settings, I have acquired the ability to coordinate scholastic lesson plans and promote student achievement by recognizing an individual's personal learning style and adapting my teaching style accordingly. I am able to teach and tutor in multiple subjects; however, my preferred student age group is elementary education.
Helping children to learn to the best of their ability is so rewarding to me! I have a natural rapport with students. They sense that I am genuinely interested in assisting them to achieve academic success. My personality is one that nurtures and encourages. When a student of mine masters a subject or overcomes a learning challenge, I truly am overjoyed. My positive spirit and sincere desire to m ... read more

In terms of my teaching style, I greatly believe in positive reinforcement. I love working with all children, and find it rewarding when I’m able to help them understand and excel in a particular area or subject. I love to motivate my students, and continually stress the importance of interactive learning and practicing of methods. I also stress the importance of an alternative solution or way to approach a problem to better ingrain methodology and study techniques. I love sharing knowledge, and continually motivate my students with an enthusiastic and patient demeanor to be lifelong learners and teachers themselves as well.
As a top-ranked liberal arts college graduate, I have always valued education. I have a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Music and Religious Studies, which has enabled my writing, reading, and analytical skills to flourish. I have written multiple research papers and ... read more

I have been a public school music educator for three years, and have taught privately for ten years. I have had the opportunity to teach elementary, middle school, high school, and college, and have worked with students as young as six, and as young as seventy-five. I have earned a BA in Music with emphasis in composition, and a Masters in Music with Jazz Studies emphasis. I have taught private, and group lessons in Guitar, Bass, Trumpet, and Music Theory.
I love teaching and working with students of all ages and backgrounds. I am a patient and positive, and find that my easy going nature puts people at ease. My teaching is "student centered", and I design a course of study that is catered to the student's interest.

More About This Tutor...

I evaluate the student and see where he/she stands and move forward in progressing their skill. Every instrument is different and difficult in its own way. I will teach the student the most productive way to practice by using the technique I learned by professors and professional musicians. For trumpet, I work on the embochure, and breathing. For violin, I evaluate the way the student holds the instrument including posture. I use a special tape to help guide with the notes which I use as training wheels, and take them down one at a time as the student progresses. The student learns at his/her pace and will vary by the amount of practice he/she puts into it.
In 1997 I was a teacher assistant for the Huntington Park High School music department. I ran rehearsals with the marching band, jazz band, jazz choir, beginning orchestra, and beginning band. In April of 2000 I started ... read more
