from zero to Juilliard!!! Over 30 years; I specialize in teaching piano, choral conducting, vocal pedagogy, ethno-musicology, composition, music theory, harmony / counterpoint, and ear-training with solfege. I have taught children 6-18 for the past 30 years. I firmly believe that great education knowledge needs to be unfettered from the towers of elite schools like the Academy of Music in Paris, The Juilliard School, and others; this is why in 2005 I initiated a project called i-Learn Music 4 Free. In this spirit that I have published over 55 music education manuals, and created 32 ear-training lessons, available for free at 32 Free Lessons for Ear-Training with Solfege {32 hours, 448 videos}. Every child can develop a professional musical ear and enjoy the benefits of a solid music education through singing with Solfege.

I view teaching as successful transference of knowledge. I have a profound respect for teachers that teach for the love of it. After I completed my Bachelors degree, I taught for 2 weeks at a High School in Barbados that catered to students with special education needs. Though it was a short period of time, I enjoyed developing different techniques to engage the unique needs of each child. I prefer interactive methods of teaching as I believe that children learn more when they feel a part of the learning process. The students that I taught appreciated my caring and patient approach. Patience is key when tutoring because pressure only inhibits learning potential. I receive great joy from the expression on a child’s face when they have finally understood a concept. Then and only then do I smile with great pride of having been able to accomplish successful transference of knowledge.

My teaching style is a combination of serious, in-depth theory and practical examples to demonstrate such theories, all with a hint of humor, followed by significant practice of the newly learned skills. I've been "teaching" people all of my business career. I always start with the underlying theory and immediately segue into a practical example of how the principles work. I think students want to learn, but need the information presented in a way that makes learning interesting, not boring. I have that ability. I'm able to integrate relevant practical examples because I have a very broad range of experience, having been an entrepreneur and turnaround management consultant for over 40 years. I taught a computer "cap-stone" class to graduating seniors part-time at the Katherine Gibbs school for 1 semester. There were approximately 14 Seniors in the class and we utilized all of th

In my job I have been teaching my clients for 30 years. While I hold a BA in American Labor History, I have a deep knowledge base of Central Asian, Near East and Asian history obtained from business experience. While my clients have been adults I have tutored children on an informal basis when asked. I enjoy teaching and have learned that the best way to teach is to listen. I have great patience and find it a challenge to find"the" way to teach a particular student. I learned much of this from my Father who taught for 40 years at college level.
