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

My most recent experiences have shown me that encouragement is central is assisting the students in their learning. Providing them with the confidence in their own comprehension and understanding is key to striking the fires of a passion for life-long learning. To aid the student in grasping the material, I look for new methods of explanation and teaching. Someone recently described me as an "educator" - a high compliment that caused me to realize that I strive to provide the tools for a student to learn beyond my instruction. This is the manner in which I work with any learner - aid them to discover and expand for life. I am fervently earnest in pursuing a career assisting students in their learning. With experience working at the elementary through high school levels, I have a diverse background with much to offer. Throughout my years of experience, I have had the opportunity to

As a business woman of 24 years, I have gained valuable experiences in many different sectors; banking, customer service, marketing, sales, public relations and teaching. I excel in the Marketing/PR field which entails most of the jobs I have held. I also like teaching children. Most of my teaching has been with grades K-8 which I really enjoy. During my years of private piano teaching, I learned so much from the students as far as "teach the child the subject, not teach a subject to a child." Each child is unique and different. I love capturing their attention using fun learning methods. My teaching style is laid back and comfortable. I like to use flash cards, fun games, and rhyming teachniques. I think children have to like their teacher to do well. Many of my former students have kept in contact with me over the years.. being invited to their graduations, weddings and other partie

Prior to playing professionally and continuing since then I have enjoyed teaching students as young as 4 students on through college reach their musical goals. I believe that music is music whether it be a Beethoven sonata, or a Bill Evans jazz transcription the same beauty, technique and drive for success is necessary for both. (Beginners) Method book, solfege singing, listening (Intermediate) music theory, simple classical literature (cleminti, Chopin nocturne (Eb)), some use of contemporary music Advanced students continue in more difficult classical pieces (Bach inventions/preludes/fugues), students at this level may also begin to study jazz and/or forms of contemporary music if they so desire.

I have circled myself with music my entire life. I began playing clarinet at age ten, and during my college years I studied music theory and composition while majoring at piano. I am often complimented on my ability how to teach others music parts and instruction. I am slow and precise with the student to understand not only each segment of instruction but the why and how it fits into the music. It’s part of a complete understanding of not just playing a part, but also harmonic content and structural form that makes the music piece its special qualities. I’ve taught private students from beginning piano to an Elvis impressionist. Today my career is built around music, and I welcome any students I can share my abilities with. My compassionate teaching style will be tailored specifically to the student at the level he or she is at. It is essential to make this experience fun, chall

A wonderful characteristic of music is that learning and experiencing music addresses all three main learning styles--visual, aural, and kinesthetic. Students enjoy my class, and it is wonderful to see what they remember long after they have been in my class. I also enjoy working with talented and gifted students to help them realize their potential. I have worked as a music teacher for 10 years, and I spent one year working as a Title I paraprofessional. As a music teacher, my focus is on music literacy and appreciation. I strongly believe that every child has the right to a quality music education. As a Title I para, I worked with individual and small groups of K-6 students in the areas of reading, writing, and math.

Education is a very powerful tool. I enjoy seeing students progress from square one to fully capable musicians. I have been teaching privately for the past two years giving private instruction in piano, french horn, and harp. I will be completing my bachelors in music performance from Ohio State this spring. I also give tutoring in music theory for interested students. I encourage all of my students to abandon what they think they should know for what they already know, and to take it from there. I am a very patient instructor for adult beginners. I expect progress from all of my students and I set firm guidelines and expections at every lesson. Music students will also receive a solid foundation in music theory.

I don’t believe in a universal teaching methodology. I do believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible. Often, a student trying to understand a subject is like a child playing with puzzle. Several pieces or even one piece missing can impair him from finding the whole picture. One of my roles is to help him find the missing pieces and make the connections. A good educator can make a world of difference in a child's education One thing I understand in life is that we cannot change our race, our skin color, our height but our level of education is our choice. Another thing I also understand in life is that people can take away your money, your clothes, your shoes and your house but your knowledge is really yours: nobody can ta

I've worked with both high school and college students, both gifted and disadvantaged students, and I believe that the key to being a successful tutor is understanding your student and how he/she learns. Through my experiences, I've learned how to explain subject matter in a way that enables students to repeat back to me in their own words what I just explained. This is critical. I believe students learn best by understanding first, and memorizing when applicable. I'm able to gauge where my students are in their education and get them where they need to be. I am a recent graduate of The Ohio State University, where I earned my BS in Microbiology. My strong background in science and mathematics allowed me to tutor students in both chemistry and microbiology during my time as an undergraduate.

I have always enjoyed playing the piano. And I took extreme satisfaction from teaching piano. I would sit beside them while they played the pieces I had assigned to them to practice since the previous lesson. If they had problems or questions about something, I was there to help. We'd talk and laugh, and I hoped they learned through it all. Above all, I never wanted to yell at them or berate them, because I knew they'd never learn if they felt pressured or thought I was there only to critize them. While I don't think I ever had any junior Beethovens, I'd like to think there are several people out there now who still enjoy sitting down at a piano every now and then to play something. I have a non-teaching BA degree in English. I spent all 4 college years working on my college newspaper, and two years after graduation working for a local newspaper.
