Teaching philosophy
by jill
Music is the key to the soul and you learn that by unlocking your love for an instrument and music. For me teaching is about sharing my love for music and piano. This instrument has opened many opportunities and has taught me important lessons.
First, it gave me the opportunity to meet many inspirational people that have encouraged me to continue on with my passions.
It has taught me to stay dedicated to an activity, to manage time and to be confident in myself. When the teacher creates a positive atmosphere and believes in having fun, learning to play the piano can be life changing.
I want to teach, inspire and give back to others like many have done for me. Music is an amazing experience and you discover meaningful traits and skills about yourself . You can’t underestimate the power of music and the power of kids, for when they believe in themselves and are encouraged by others that's when the magic happens.
