Piano Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Downey, ID

During the completion of my BMA, I accepted a tutoring position and tutored all students (including disabled students) for two years. I eventually moved on to substituting for professors and even gained an assistant to the professor position, which included developing and teaching lesson plans. I have excellent communication skills with students and the ability to determine effective ways to help each student learn in their unique way. Although I have done mainly music tutoring, I am extremely confident in mathematics, sciences, and english. I have the ability to work with diverse students of all ages and levels. Whether the student is 15 or 50, I can help the him/her learn and feel comfortable around me. I possess the rare gift of patience which allows me to work with even the least confident student, or the most rambunctious! My teaching style aims at explaining and discovering t

I have a strong interest in the sciences of the world. I earned a bachelor degree in ecology including a minor in botany. I also earned a Master degree in biology studying mountain quail. During my undergraduate and graduate education I participated in the GK-12 program as a scientist in residence. I spent 20 hours a week in the middle school and high school setting for two years. The purpose of the GK-12 program was to help increase scientific literacy in southern Idaho. I am keenly aware of the challenges that face middle school and high school students in grasping scientific concepts. I also taught biology at the college level and I have recognized that many students are at different levels of scientific understanding. I enjoy watching students grasp the scientific method as it is something that comes naturally to most people if put in the right context. Science is rewarding to teach

I am a retired FBI Agent, with both a Bachelor of Science and a Juris Doctorate. As an Agent, I learned to speak fluent Russian and speak it to this day. Since retirement six years ago I have been tutoring and coaching my son, who is handicapped. He is highly intelligent but learns a little bit differently, so I have worked hard with him to teach him to read, learn math and grammar. He cannot write, so everything he learns is by memory. He is an excellent student and works hard. My work in the FBI has given me excellent writing skills, my grammar is next to perfect, and I read several books a week. I tutored many students in the FBI Academy and in Russian school, so I have experience in tutoring adults as well as children. My teaching style depends upon the student I am tutoring. I totally coach the student in a manor which best befits that student. Since no two students are alik

As a private teacher of violin and piano for four years, I enjoy helping students grow in their musical abilities. I have students from ages four to fifty two. I have a minor in music from the University of Nevada Reno. During my schooling at the university I received education in teaching development, music theory, sight singing, and music history. I also experienced performing in the University Orchestra, and taking private lessons both piano and violin from professional musicians. I love teaching and working with children and also adults. I am patient, considerate, and understanding but I know when to give my students challenges to help them progress in their musical abilities. I believe in setting goals for students and working with them to achieve those goals. I go the extra mile to work on finding the best way each student and then teach them in that way finding the right materia
