Saxophone Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Xenia, OH

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, challenging, rewarding and a feeling of accomplishment. A child’s musical development may require a bit more attention span, overcoming the frustration of failures of early technique abilities, mood swings and other areas. Adult learners may wish to learn specific songs, or special techniques. In either example I would customize the appropriate teaching skills for the specific student. A good teacher can make the student’s learning experience enjoyable with a sense of accomplishment. My role is to allow these feelings to emerge, and the instruction to reach these goals. 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 majo

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 parties. I made a very good impression on them...as most often teachers can be forgotten as the years go by. I try to make learning fun and I like to incorporate color and coloring to work sheets and assignments. I am very creative.

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.

I take the necessary time to learn the behavior and learning ability of the child in order to customize a teaching style that will be most beneficial. I believe that the most effective type of relationship between a teacher and a student is friendship to reduce any anxieties that may otherwise hinder the child’s progress. I am calm, well mannered, kind and devoted to the success of others. Teachers should be firm but not intimidating to the child. The learning environment should be safe, stress free and comfortable and above all positive. I have a strong belief that since children will be leading future generations then they need the proper skills to be able to solve tomorrow’s problems. Throughout my high school career I have been devoted to academic success of my fellow classmates as well as my self. I continued this attitude in the accomplishment of achieving a BS degree in biology. A

I love teaching. I am very patient, and as I have been teaching piano the past few years, I have learned to adapt to the student and change teaching methods to best suit his or her needs. I put forth 100% effort in my study sessions and expect the same from my students. I think all children deserve the opportunity to succeed. I graduated from the Ohio State University with a Bachelor's Degree in German & History. I have studied abroad twice, and completed a summer semester at Bonn University prior to graduation. I am extremely passionate about history and foreign languages and spend a few weeks each summer abroad. I have been teaching piano for the past four years. I am responsible for teaching theory, history, and playing skills, as well as the preparation of my students for competitions. This fall I plan on beginning my Master's Degree in Secondary Education at the University of Cincin

Despite my lack of certification, I have always enjoyed working with children. I truly believe that a childs learning output is a reflection of the teachers in his/her life, whether parents, school teachers, or family. I am patient and having such a diverse background in the math and sciences makes it easy to teach through different approaches to convey information to students. Teaching a child is fun, but watching them learn is priceless. I've never had more of a rewarding job. As an undergraduate student at The Ohio State University, I became a minority affairs mentor. I did a science education internship with COSI in 2002. I also worked summers with the Columbus Department of Recreation and Sports as a camp leader. I I also spent 2 summers as a high school band camp instructor/counselor. After obtaining my B.S. in Biology from The Ohio State University, I became an early childhood

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. 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.

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 take it away from you. Result, I am actually an engineer, a commercial pilot, a musician and I am fluent in four languages, to mention only that. The beauty of sharing what you know is the following: by teaching others you are increasing your own knowledge. I will be happy to help student/s in Math, French and Spanish. 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

I like to determine my teaching style by first evaluating a child's current progress and learning style. Learning is a very individualized process, therefore, teaching must also be individual. I am a relaxed person, and I like to find a way to relate material to a child in a way that he/she will not only understand, but retain. Flash cards are great for some children, and other children will learn better with a pneumonic device, while still other learners will make up a song to remember the material. As an English major, I spent all 4 years at my private instutition tutoring my fellow students, not only in English and writing courses, but in all academic classes in which I had received a grade of "A" or "B". 3 of my 4 years at Lindsey Wilson were spent in the Education department, as I originally wanted to be a high school English teacher.
