Saxophone Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Oceanside, CA

I have an extensive educational background in instructing and teaching students in grades K-12. With work experience in public, private, homeschool, and charter school settings, I have acquired the ability to coordinate scholastic lesson plans and promote student achievement by recognizing an individual's personal learning style and adapting my teaching style accordingly. I am able to teach and tutor in multiple subjects; however, my preferred student age group is elementary education. Helping children to learn to the best of their ability is so rewarding to me! I have a natural rapport with students. They sense that I am genuinely interested in assisting them to achieve academic success. My personality is one that nurtures and encourages. When a student of mine masters a subject or overcomes a learning challenge, I truly am overjoyed. My positive spirit and sincere desire to motivat

I recently earned a Master's Degree in Communication Management with an emphasis in Branding and Marketing Communications. In the two years it took to complete my degree, I commuted from San Diego to Los Angeles several times a week, interned for various companies, served as a branding consultant for a start-up vocational school, and completed my dissertation. I have spent countless hours researching and writing for numerous school projects and feel confident in my ability to communicate effectively. In my "spare time" I enjoy serving as a part-time hitting instructor to athletes 7-18 years of age. As a visual learner and instructor, I believe the best way for children to retain information is by breaking down the task itself and visualizing it in stages/phases. Often times children feel overwhelmed by the countless lessons taught inside the classroom, resulting in defeated attitudes a

In terms of my teaching style, I greatly believe in positive reinforcement. I love working with all children, and find it rewarding when I’m able to help them understand and excel in a particular area or subject. I love to motivate my students, and continually stress the importance of interactive learning and practicing of methods. I also stress the importance of an alternative solution or way to approach a problem to better ingrain methodology and study techniques. I love sharing knowledge, and continually motivate my students with an enthusiastic and patient demeanor to be lifelong learners and teachers themselves as well. As a top-ranked liberal arts college graduate, I have always valued education. I have a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Music and Religious Studies, which has enabled my writing, reading, and analytical skills to flourish. I have written multiple research papers and labor

I evaluate the student and see where he/she stands and move forward in progressing their skill. Every instrument is different and difficult in its own way. I will teach the student the most productive way to practice by using the technique I learned by professors and professional musicians. For trumpet, I work on the embochure, and breathing. For violin, I evaluate the way the student holds the instrument including posture. I use a special tape to help guide with the notes which I use as training wheels, and take them down one at a time as the student progresses. The student learns at his/her pace and will vary by the amount of practice he/she puts into it. In 1997 I was a teacher assistant for the Huntington Park High School music department. I ran rehearsals with the marching band, jazz band, jazz choir, beginning orchestra, and beginning band. In April of 2000 I started workin
