As an engaged and determined teacher, I thrive teaching both one-on-one and in-group scenarios. I look forward to taking your musical aptitude to the next level
An Effective Teacher Needs to Practice What They Preach. A good educator must first have mastered their art and studied the principles underlying human development to fully understand how to teach someone the art of music. This goes far beyond replicating your musical history, or relaying what you think was the right path when you first learnt music. An Effective Teacher Needs To Stay Up To Date I try to stay up to date on the latest teaching resources and methodology An Effective Teacher Needs To Engage Their Students Hence, be open and willing to learn and teach new repertoire which engages your students. An Effective Teacher Learns From Others Even if you are a respected and established teacher, you cannot deny that somewhere out there is an equally accomplished teacher who may have a few worthwhile ideas and strategies. A Effective Teacher Is Constantly Practicing Being a music teacher who inspires their students and produces results takes continuous self-critique, awareness, and practice.
