Piano Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Balsam Lake, WI

I like to help students use their minds first instead of relying on machines (such as calculators). When they work it out in their minds they learn the process and can apply it to other things. Reading requires the knowledge of pronunciation, syllables, root words for meanings, prefixes/suffixes, and how they are put together. It is more than just learning sight words. If one is analytical and precise in the beginning then a firm foundation is laid for using basic information to build ideas and develop new thoughts. i.e.: one cannot play a piece with feeling if one cannot play the notes, rhythms, and dynamics. The enjoyment of learning is in the confidence of knowing one knows and is able to do. I began teaching private piano and oboe lessons around 1970 and continued it as time permitted until the present. It is enjoyable and rewarding to see someone work hard and feel with them the joy

I find it thoroughly enjoyable to work with children. My time teaching in Peru has definitely confirmed that for me! I am patient, responsible, and easy going. I think that knowledge can be gained in many ways, and it doesn't have to just be from a book or someone lecturing to you. Through getting to know the students, I try to find creative ways, such as games, songs, and crafts to help the student gain an even better understanding of the subject. Most of all, I want this to be a worthwhile experience for my students, so I will strive to be the best I can be for them! As a graduate from the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse, I have been well prepared in my chosen fields. I have bachelor degrees in both Exercise & Sport Science: Fitness, and Spanish, through which I have acquired a vast knowledge of health and fitness. I have also studied abroad in Spain, and lived and worked in Li

I enjoy catering to the students learning style. I like to identify the students strong and weak points, and find ways to use what the student already has, to make his or her weak points stronger. I enjoy teaching through experience and take a very active approach in engaging the student. I have been a private instructor of guitar and music theory for over 5 years. I have taught as a native speaker of English in Korea over a year. I have worked in private tutoring, as well as classroom settings.

I love teaching and working with anyone who wants to learn to play and instrument or any aspect of music especially kids. While helping them learn it is important to let then have fun, challenge them just enough for them to make consistent progress and encourage them to join ensembles or even start a band on their own. I've been a musician for 30 years, recording, performing, touring, producing and composing. The City Pages chose me as it's 'Jazz Musician of The Year' in 2004 and I have been awarded McKnight and Jerome fellowships. I did not start playing the saxophone (my main instrument) until my 21st birthday. I then practiced a lot and have a very clear idea of how to learn and teach.

I will graduate from the College of Saint John’s University this spring with a major in English Education. Classes I have taken at CSB/SJU include extensive English and Education courses and a continuation of Spanish education. I worked as a paid English tutor during my 4-year college career through Upward Bound Tutoring program. I fell in love with helping middle school and high school aged youth in a small group and one on one setting. I find my favorite moments of education to be in a one-on-one or small group setting. I hope to find more of those memories at your institution. I also participated in a summer internship in Katmandu, Nepal. I worked with the Whitefield School, teaching grammar, sentence structure and a writing workshop. I am in the Education field to make a difference in student’s lives. I hope to do this through instruction and example. I believe these two elements in

I love conveying knowledge to other people. I have been teaching Math and English for high school children for two years. While working at IT Department, I was delegated to train new student workers on the University policies, procedures and progresses. I like to use simple but effective language to express any complicated ideas. I have graduated from Metropolitan State University with a bachelor's degree in Finance. I used to work as an on-site property manager at Golden Globe Apartment Company in Vietnam for 8 months. I had chances to communicate with valuable foreigner customers, as well as accommodate their stay to my best. I worked in IT Department for more than 2 years. This experience gave me an opportunity to gain important skills in handling numerous administrative duties, to develop customer service and relation backgrounds, and to learn new software applications which are
