Prestantia Music
About
My teaching is based on the premise: that “every person is musical” and it is important for me as an educator that positive and enjoyable musical experiences are created for my learners, consistently, in the learning environment, combined with appropriate guidance, strategies to support the learners, based on holistic music education principles.
I strongly believe that empathy and communication are important when working together as “a team” with my learners and their carers/parents. It is essential to understand the needs, and goals (short-term and long-term) of learners to find attainable outcomes for each year to reach, their full potential in their music education journey. Hence, I believe it is an essential step to craft a plan (attainable), based on the learners’ interests and skill set. I also believe in instilling the joy of lifelong music learning hence I take much effort to provide my learners with fun and positive experiences to develop motivation for music reading skills, connected with Music theory knowledge (where applicable) and instilling Healthy Piano Technical growth combined with relaxed, ergonomically-sound body movements.
To sum up, as a music educator, it is my wish, that my learners advance from their current level to the next, in a fun, progressive manner which also develops self-confidence, self-expression, and creativity, which in turn will build the next generation of musicians and music aficionados in the world.
