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 whil ... read more

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 4 years experience playing classical, jazz and top 40's as a pianist/vocalist for Gregory's Restaurant (Dayton, OH) I have 6 years experience leading a contemporar ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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 ... read more

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 opportuni ... read more

In addition, I integrated diverse technologies through the development of units that included computer literacy skills, then adapted activities to help meet the needs of individual learners.

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.
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 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 ... read more

As a parent of middle school students, I understand the importance of motivating students by using real world examples and providing hands-on experiences. I enjoy working one-one-one with students, learning their strengths, and using those to have fun and make meaningful progress on the curriculum. Because of my professional background, I believe in basing study on solid principles such as methodology, repetition, and use of the scientific method to help the student retain the concepts in the long term. I especially hope to be a role model to students and share the joy of working in a technical field.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a student in a four year college, I have applied myself to every singe subject that there was to conquer. In some areas I shined, but it some areas I had difficulties. But at the end of the day I was learning from the best and took in all that I could, in order to continue my education, pass on the knowledge to my future children, and finally use education as a source to progress in our civilization. During my college years I was able to participate in study groups and help out fellow students in some subjects, (if they had difficulties understanding). College courses such as Writing, Reading, Art, Music, Business, Science, and Math gave me a well rounded educational experience and development as a student.
I am firm believer in dynamic education, where each student is considered individually from every single point of stand. Each child/student is unique, and because of that h ... read more

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 ... read more
