As a teacher, I believe it is my responsibility to inspire and help students to become independent learners and life-long musicians in which music continues to become a part of their life. I plan to achieve this by helping them build a solid foundation of technique, sight-reading, ear-training, music theory and musicality. Additionally, giving students more exposure to a wide range of repertoire to gain knowledge of music history and musical styles, as well as critical listening and thinking, which increases the value of their musical experience. 

In building a solid foundation of technique, the students will be familiar and fluent in scales and arpeggios in all keys as well as finger exercises by incorporating them into their warm-up routines. Elements of music theory will be discussed, and sight-reading exercises will be included regularly in their lessons. Each student will be assigned a wide range of repertoire that stretches their abilities and help them in their musical growth. 

I believe that every student is unique and can use music to express something beyond what they can using words. It is the teacher’s role to bring that ability out of the student. As every student is different, it is important to cultivate their talents using methods that cater to each of them individually. There is no one method that works for everyone, therefore there needs to be some flexibility in the ways we teach.
