My teaching philosophy is rooted in the belief that music has the power to enrich lives, inspire creativity, and foster personal growth. Formal musical training is simply a development of what every individual already possesses since rhythm and sound are fundamental components of human beings, from the sound of the heartbeat to the sound of breathing. As a music educator, my goal is to cultivate a lifelong love and appreciation for music in my students, while providing them with the necessary skills and knowledge to become well-rounded musicians.
Name: Bahar (Full name will be provided upon registration)
Age: 23
Gender: female
As a dedicated student at Concordia University pursuing a minor in music, I have immersed myself in a comprehensive musical education, acquiring valuable experiences and knowledge that have shaped my musical journey. My musical journey commenced at the age of 4 when I developed a deep passion for music. At the age of 8, I embarked on my piano studies, delving into the world of classical music. Guided by my piano teacher, a highly accomplished musician who obtained a PhD in compositions from the Conservatory of Yerevan, I refined my piano skills with meticulous attention to detail and exceptional standards. Expanding my musical horizons further, I began learning the flute at the age of seventeen. This enabled me to explore new realms of musical expression. Concordia University has provided me with invaluable opportunities to enhance my musical abilities through theoretical classes, performance classes, and ensemble participation. These avenues of learning have contributed significantly to my growth as a musician.

Rates and Studio Policies
Registration Fee: $25.00 (One-time lifetime registration fee may be used by all family members)
Rates for instruction:
30 minute private lesson: $39.00
45 minute private lesson: $49.00
60 minute private lesson: $59.00
Travel charge: additional $15.00 per visit (for lessons in a client's home as opposed to my studio)
1. Cancellation Policy
Lessons not cancelled or rescheduled with at least 24 hours notice are billable to the client and payable to the teacher. This does not of course apply to travel fees unless the notice is effectively given at the door and the teacher has travelled to the location.
2. Cessation (quitting) Policy
A client must provide a 2 lesson notice period to stop lessons. So a weekly student needs to give 2 weeks of notice, a biweekly student works out to 3 weeks notice and a twice weekly student works out to a week of notice.
3. Illness Policy
Lessons cancelled due to illness or extraordinary circumstances with less than 24 hours notice remain billable to the client and payable to the teacher.
BAH teachers are encouraged to offer a make-up lesson at a future date in the interest of client relations and general goodwill. This only makes sense as teaching a student with the flu for example, will ruin the rest of your week's employment.
No more than 2 lessons may be made up due to illness within a 60 day period.
4. Rescheduling Policy
Any lesson can be cancelled or rescheduled with at least 24 hours notice.
Summer Vacation and Extended Absence Policy
Clients may schedule longer absences for trips etc. 24 hours notice is required.
It is normal and typical for students and about 20% of our teachers to schedule a break in the summer. We do not enforce a notice period (see cessation of lessons) at the end of a long summer break.
5. Evaluation Period
There are no free trial lessons with Beethoven at Home but we do offer a 2 lesson evaluation period where it is easy to try out a teacher. There are no free lessons during the evaluation period and clients may choose to discontinue the lessons at any time by providing the required 24 hours notice. After the student's 3rd lesson the required 2 lesson notice period will apply (see cessation of lessons above).
