Piano Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Saint James, MD

Charlie Gilmer has been playing piano by ear since the age of 3, taking up lessons at age 9. It was at 15 when he answered God's calling to a life of music with his first church job. When playing for his choir at Smithfield High School, the director immediately observed in Charlie signs of perfect pitch (even though the ability was pretty apparent at a much earlier age) due to his uncanny knack for keeping the choir in tune while a capella, even without the use of a piano or keyboard. Charlie credits his choir director for inspiring him to audition for Shenandoah University Conservatory, that of which he passed during his senior year and accepted on the spot as a classical Piano Performance major...also studying the organ as his minor instrument. Charlie's degree studies included instruction in written/aural music theory, music history, conducting and pedagogy methods (teacher training)

I am using the Alfred adult course for adults and Schaum Making Music Method along with Bastien Piano Basics for the children.

I have grasped the opportunity to teach and love the chance I have been given to do so. All students learn in different ways and different levels. My goal is to help my students succeed and place their success first. I help students learn by teaching, giving examples and worksheets, and most of all by having the student participate in their learning. I am patient and give the time that each student requires to gain that knowledge and success towards their goals.

I have learned how to work with different types of learners, ones who learn from verbal instruction, ones who learn from activities such as lab exercises, and ones who learn from reading activities. I love the diversity of learners in the field of education, and it is a great experience every time I meet a new learner and get to figure out the best way to help them learn the material I am presenting to them. I want every student I meet to be successful, and I strive to do all I can to ensure that success. I have had a wide range of teaching and tutoring experiences: tutoring elementary school students in math and reading in Boulder, Colorado, teaching high school boy scouts wilderness survival skills in New Mexico, teaching 7th grade science in Denver, Colorado, substitute teaching, and teaching 8th grade general science and 9th grade Introduction to Chemistry and Physics in Frederick Co

Teaching is a gift I have loved expressing my whole life. I enjoy motivating children to express themselves and to learn. I explore what motivates the child to want to play and make that the reward for hard work. I am a positive role model and enjoy encouraging children in all aspects of their lives. I want their musical experience to follow them for the rest of their lives not just the years they are taking lessons. Private piano and organ teacher from 1976 to 1988. Taught lessons at Ralon Music Store and home studio. Age range of students was from 7 year old to adults. Had each student participate in two annual recitals and the National Guild of Piano Teachers Guild annually. Each student took a 30 minute private lesson weekly and performed at monthly workshops to enhance theory and performance skills. I have taken private lessons both classical and jazz improvisation.

I am currently an undergraduate student enrolled at Harrisburg University. I will be graduating in December 2010 with a BS in Biotechnology.

I have tutored students in English, psychology, chemistry, biology, anatomy, Spanish, biotechnology, genetics, and calculus. School is my passion and my goal is to help students reach their maximum potential. It has been my experience that students often dislike subjects in which they do not excel. It is my goal to help students overcome their learning challenges and find the same passion I do in education. I am patient, considerate, and have a sense of humo

I graduated from high school as number eleven in rank out of 248. I often assisted other students in both high school and college. Later, as a homeschooling mother of four, I taught all of my children all subjects through the eighth grade level. I just returned from the island of Saipan, where I taught high school English in a private school, and seventh grade English in a public school. I presently am a certified substitute teacher in the Cumberland County, PA, public school system, where I teach almost all grade levels and subjects. I far prefer private tutoring over formal teaching, as I believe my abilities are put to their greatest use in that setting. I absolutely love working with students one-on-one. It's what I do best. Because of my experience in teaching my own children, I have discovered that no child is too young to learn. Often people will not consider an infant or toddler
