My comments on tutoring Piano : Soloist in Middle Eastern style piano music. Have been playing for nearly 13 years.

Taught, substituted, and assisted teachers at TASIS, The American School in England. Communicated with mostly international children in high school and junior high age groups. Succeeded in building respectful friendships and trust while maintaining professionalism at all times. Enjoyed working with kids, I would definitely do it again.

More About This Tutor...

I have had enjoyable experiences teaching and tutoring both at San Diego State University and Southwestern College, where I developed positive relationships with students and helped foster growth in their musical education. Specifically, I was involved in the music theory program at San Diego State, helping students with all theory levels and aural skills. At Southwestern College, I also tutored these subjects in addition to tutoring piano, helping me develop skills that I would later need in becoming a private piano instructor. I earned a BM in Composition from San Diego State while studying piano as my instrument. I was lucky enough to study composition with such great teachers as Joseph Waters and David Ward-Steinman.
I am a person who is stimulated by learning new things. This carries over in my teaching and my constant demand to never give up on any student. I am always ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style is student-centered. This approach is two-fold. I use scaffolds to assist in the discovery process, but encourage students to truly perform the “learning” independently, better preparing them for future endeavors. I also focus my delivery and content around the students’ interests, skill-levels, and abilities. I believe everyone has the right to an education and modify accordingly. I am patient, humorous, and approachable. It is not my goal for the students to fear me; I want to be an authority figure that they respect but also trust. I encourage students to think outside of the box as well as raise them to higher standards and skill levels. I am passionate about education, reading, and writing, and it shows!

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that students learn when they have a genuine passion for the subject. As a teacher, I try to lead them to this passion before introducing anything technical or abstruse. My philosophy rests on the notion that students will actually guide their teacher once they are having fun; pedagogy is therefore a two-way street where true interaction is possible. Many of the barriers that might prevent a student from learning a particular subject include fear, intimidation, low self esteem and apprehension—all of which can be reversed if the student has a genuine interest.
With two degrees in music, an MA (nearly complete) in British Literature, and fourteen years of experience working with children in summer camps or individually, I have an extensive educational background. Three years of study in England has added a unique perspective to my teaching palette. Since my music educ ... read more
