I aim to give students a foundation so that they may bring their skills to any platform they choose such as an orchestra, a school concert or an at home concert for mom and dad. There are also students who learn for enjoyment and dont necessarily want to perform that's ok too. We are here to open doors for students into the music world which can be exciting and scary at the same time. I Try to make the lessons as fun and interesting as possible. Learning should be enjoyable but also requires hard work.
Completed a BMUS at Wilfrid Laurier. Attended several summer chamber music camps such as Quartet Fest in Waterloo, Domain Forget in Quebec and Tafflemusic summer institute. I started out as a Suzuki student in my hometown in Newmarket and as a Teen transferred to Conservatory grading system w my teacher Kathy Rappaport. I've had several well educated and successful teachers over the years who gave me the encouragement to get to this level.
I am open to teaching special needs students but this should be in agreement with a parent or guardian. So that their goals and special requirements are met in the lessons.
Jennifer is a Beethoven at Home Associate Teacher
Home visit fee: $15 minimum fee. Teachers may negotiate a higher travel fee if the travel distance is longer than they are comfortable with. Most arrangements use the minimum fee.
One-Time Family Registration: $25. This covers your entire family for life - once you're in, everyone can take lessons!
Getting Started Together
We don't offer free trials, but we do something better - a relaxed 2-lesson getting-to-know-you period. You can pause anytime with just 24 hours notice. After your third lesson, we ask for a friendly 2-lesson heads up if you need to stop.
Life Happens - We Get It
Give us 24 hours notice for any cancellation or reschedule and you'll receive full credit. Planning a family vacation or summer break? Perfect - just let us know a day ahead and we'll pause your lessons.
When You're Under the Weather
If illness strikes with short notice (less than 24 hours), you'll still be charged since your teacher has reserved that time. However, most teachers are happy to offer makeup lessons when possible - they have the final say, especially if last-minute cancellations become a pattern.
Stopping Lessons
Need to take a break? We just ask for a 2-lesson notice:
Weekly lessons = 2 weeks notice
Every other week = 3 weeks notice
Twice weekly = 1 week notice
Summer breaks are different - no notice period needed when you return in the fall!
