My Experience - I studied for thirteen years under the renowned Mrs. Alice Challener. I continued to study Music Education at Hiram College in Hiram, OH, graduating with a degree in Music Education. I taught General Music for grades Kindergarten through Eighth grade in private schools until my children were born. I now teach privately.
Lesson Format - Each lesson is taught in 1/2 hour to hour increments. I teach traditional format, with the emphasis on basics. Students earn points through a pre-set structure designed to encourage their progress, working toward prizes at the end of the school year.
Recitals/Worskshops - Each year in December, children participate in workshops with other children of their ability range, which includes a mini-recital, games, and theory enhancement. Each child participates in one spring recital per year.
I currently teach on Tues/Thurs/Sat, and charge $10.00 per half hour lesson, and $15.00 per hour lesson, with student/parent supplying books.
