Saxophone Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Miami, FL

My start in music began with trips from a young age to my mom's rehearsals. As a young child my first instrument of interest was the drums and noticing that I wasn't that good (sister playing better) I quickly moved on to other instruments. During my tenth grade year I joined my high school's marching band playing the trombone. I decided to continue the trombone as my primary instrument while in college at Grambling State University. There I was also able to study other instruments such as bass guitar, piano and organ. Going to college in Louisiana, which has such a musically rich environment, allowed me the opportunity to play venues such as casinos, clubs, appear in commercials and even a halftime show for super bowl 32 as well as other NFL games. My goal for teaching music is to give students the discipline to achieve all of their life's goals.

My passion is teaching, especially elementary students. But, I have tutor music students for 41 years. My school of thought is that I need to teach my students using different styles. For this reason, I feel that I can help your child to be successful in all academic affairs. My goal is to provide my students an opportunity to find the great student that is inside every child, so any child may be a great citizen in the future. I am positive that your child will engage in good habits of learning once he or she starts my classes. During my undergraduate work, I work very hard to learn how to teach effectively, so my students will benefit from my knowledge. I have an Associate in Arts, finished at Miami-Dade College; a Bachelor’s degree in Music Composition, finished at Florida International University; and, a Masters degree in Music Education, finished at Florida International University

I believe that all children have different styles or method of learning. I will often give students a choice designing and implementing their own complex learning projects and will act in a consultative role. In many cases, I will also teach a the students with diagrams or other images associated to the particular lecture. I enjoy young students company and I do not get frustrated or irate easily. I am a very optimistic individual who can bring the best in people, whether its through education or personal. I have had some great tutors and teachers in the past and would like to thank them by helping others accomplish their educational dreams. Higher Education has always been my passion. I recently graduated college, in May 2009, with a Bachelor degree in Business Marketing. Although my degree focuses more on different aspects of business financial growth, my dedication to assist others th

I used several strategies including differentiated instructional methods. This year I will incorporate problem based learning as well as contructivist approach to my learners. I believe that all students are capable of learning and as a teacher we have to authenticate the instruction to make it more meaningful to high tech students. In addition, I believe in choice of products to progress whereby students are able to choose different products that are available to them. They may create, write, present or discuss their findings as long as everyone is comfortable and must show they means to take ownership of their learning. I worked in the Broward School system for the past eight years as an Interim Sub and Math Teacher. The last job I held was teaching mathematics which includes, Algebra, Geometry at HD Perry Middle School in Miramar Fl. I also secured a bachelors degree from Florida

I was a teacher in New York from 1971 to 1979 at the Junior High School level. I taught typewriting as well as Social Studies and English. In the evenings I taught business subjects to adults. I am proficient in music and am able to teach elementary music as well as elementary math, social studies, keyboarding and English. I have had many years of experience as a teacher and feel very comfortable in the classroom environment. I enjoy teaching and working with children. As far as I'm concerned there is nothing more important than a good education. Because my expectations are high, many of my students strive to meet these expectations and realize they are capable of doing more than they thought they could. I realize not all children learn at the same pace, and am therefore patient and relaxed in my teaching style. There is nothing more satisfying than seeing the light bulb go off i
