Musical Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Manitou Beach, MI

I believe that learning repertoire that the student is interested in is the fastest way to develop a passion for music. Positive encouragement is key, and I believe the teachers' job is to guide their students in what they want to do. Developing technical proficiency and understanding the emotions and intent of the music is the foundation of my teaching style. Hello! My name is Evan Levine and I am currently pursuing a Masters degree in music performance at the University of Michigan. Originally from New Jersey, I have been teaching students between the ages of 6-18 for over 8 years in both private and group settings. I have taught a range of music styles, including; Rock, Jazz, Pop, Country and Classical music. I am also proficient in Music Theory and Music History and would be able to supplement that with instrument instruction.

During my collegiate years, I learned that experience was just as important as obtaining my degree. Therefore, I worked during my college years in a school offering mentoring for young children. For the last two years, I have worked for a young adult mentoring program called Project Respect. I work as a classroom facilitator. My BA in Communications offers me experience in writing research papers, essays, preparing and delivering speeches, and developing creative case studies. Currently, I am working on my Masters in Science, which enables me to teach Science and Math classes, as well. I enjoy adapting my personal teaching style to each individual specifically. I believe each child learns differently and I am very persistent in finding the right learning method for each child to make sure they fully comprehend the material.

I feel that children learn best through rich experiences with a variety of materials. Children learn better when instruction is "hands-on" rather than listening to a teacher lecture. The most learning possible can be achieved if variety of senses and "multiple intelligences" are stimulated. Each child is different, and by working one-on-one with them, I will be able to find out what works best for each child. I believe that the point of tutoring is to help children reach their full potential and to give them a chance to succeed in school and in life. I am a recent graduate of the University of Michigan - Dearborn. I earned a BA in Elementary Education with certifications in Language Arts and Early Childhood Education. I majored in Early Childhood Education and minored in Science and Language Arts. I have experience teaching the inquiry method of science education. I have taught l

Monthly, I create displays of various activities and explorations that I have documented to show families what their children are doing. As a student I was most drawn to the ideas of Piaget and Gardner. Their teaching philosophies made the most sense to me when it came to teaching. Piaget focused on the idea of pla

I love to teach -- it is extremely rewarding to work with students and see them grasp new knowledge. I work with students to find a way of understanding material that fits their style of learning. I am unendingly patient and flexible. I am sure that, with effort, all students can learn. I was inspired to pursue mathematics-related work by my eighth grade algebra teacher. An honors math student in high school and college, I decided to pursue a career where I could utilize my analytical and quantitative skills: finance. I have taught finance and math and the middle school and college levels. I have also taught music (piano and singing) to people of all ages.

I enjoy working with others to help them have a thorough understanding. I believe it is possible for anyone to understand and apply music the way they desire to. It depends on how it is looked at, and I am willing to shape my lessons around the thought patterns of my students. This helps them connect to their lessons and have a full grasp at what they are learning. I want to make a positive difference in the way my students hear music, write music, and perform music As an alumni of Berklee College of Music, I have a broad understanding not only of music itself, but also how it can be utilized in today’s contemporary world. I have had extensive theory, composition, electronic and vocal classes that not only opened new doors for my music, but showed me ways to communicate what I feel and hear to others through my music. While at Berklee I performed live with bands in Boston and for spec

I have a high regard for the brilliance of children. It is my experience that some children need assistance in recognizing their gifts.

Each individual has a unique approach to critical thinking, and using that approach is the best way for that person to learn. I make every attempt to identify a person's perspective so as to shape my teaching for that person in the best possible way. Whether someone is visual-, aural-, logical-, or otherwise-oriented makes a significant difference in the way that person will respond to new information. Above all, I remain positive in my approach, because I realize that every success requires an amount of trial and error behind it, and that nobody is born into their skills though everybody has talent. As a foster parent, I tutored our first child as he progressed through kindergarten and the first grade. His previous school experience was lacking at best, and he had little confidence in his scholastic ability. I was able to pinpoint his natural aptitude--mathematics--and use it to he

In choosing to pursue a Master of Education in Educational Technology, I have learned that in order for the learning process to truly take effect, students must be thoroughly engaged in the learning experience. As a tutor, I will aim to achieve this goal, for the primary concern is the student's achievement. As a tutor, my main focus will be to identify the student's concerns and needs, and to address these issues in ways that are best fit for the learner. As a graduate of Lourdes College, and graduating at the Magna Cum Laude level, I have always maintained that education is of the utmost importance in order to exceed. I have earned my bachelor's degree in English, and with my previous experience as a staff writer for a newspaper, I have exhibited incredible written and oral communication skills.
