I have been teaching piano privately since 1982, and I have 15 years of performing experience as a choral accompanist at a local private high school. I like to emphasize general musicianship training, gaining proficiency in piano fundamentals, such as scales and proper hand structure development. In training a student to become an accompanist, the main fundamental I stress is sight reading. I also take time to stress the value of persistence and patience with the process of learning to play a... Read more

Patient and Encouraging Academic Coach

Your academic coach. My approach with students is to gently encourage and motivate them, while helping them focus and stay on task. I assist them with prioritizing their studies and expect them to be active participants in the learning process. I hold students accountable for their performance and expect them to do the work they commit to, rather than accepting excuses. I believe students can accomplish anything they put their minds to, and I understand that sometimes they require guidance in... Read more

I am a recent master's graduate with a background in marine and molecular related research.

Tutoring Tailored to Your Learning Style & Unique Needs
- $45 / h
- Port Hueneme , California ( 93044 )
- 40 miles
Two kinds of learning are taking place during the encounter between a tutor and the tutee/student: 1) WHAT – the subject or content of the information being studied; and 2) HOW – the process of exploring information, asking questions, making hypotheses about what might happen, and assessing what worked and didn’t work. BOTH are important. As a teacher or tutor, I believe it is equally important to facilitate the development of a mindset of curiosity and the tools to find information and p... Read more
