My Experience as a Music Teacher
I
have been a piano teacher since I was 15 years old, when my Grade 10
typing teacher, Mr. Deakins, encouraged me and helped me recruit my
very first student. Since then I have never stopped teaching music to
others around me.
- My early childhood teaching experience includes music and movement classes for babies, toddlers, and preschoolers. These classes feature percussion, dancing and singing circles, which provide foundational experience with tonal and rhythmic patterns, as well as enjoyment for parent and child, which encourages music making in the home.

For
ten years, I have taught music to grade school children in Ontario
schools, focusing on the Knowledge, Skills, and Creative Thinking
outcomes in the provincial curriculum
