English Conversation lessons online - Musician from Hawaii

16.77 £ /h

I’m Miles, a native English speaker from Hawaii. I have experience teaching English for over fifteen years including business English, conversation lessons, and for all ages. Along with working through textbooks and worksheets, I make learning enjoyable with activities like roleplays, comedy, and stories. My lessons consist of various engaging speaking activities and topics, and we also play games and talk about riddles.

I love teaching English because it allows me to meet new people from all over the world, learn about their culture and have interesting conversations. I try to make my lessons fun and engaging while also challenging the students with critical thinking. Along with working through textbooks I make learning enjoyable with activities like roleplays, comedy, as well as stories.

Music is one of the most powerful ways of self-expression and impact on the human soul.With the help of music, we can share with others our experiences, feelings of joy and sadness. In my opinion, the guitar is the perfect instrument for this, it can be happy and sad, cry and laugh, we just need to find the right ways to transmit our ideas.
I will gladly share my experience and knowledge with you and help you immerse yourself in the wonderful world of music and will support you on the way to learning how to play the guitar.

You will learn about hand position, seating, sound producing , technique and musical phrasing

Ivan

Private piano tuition for all levels and styles of music. the piano classes will be tailored to student's needs and can include music theory and harmony. Provided by musician with a lot of experience with teaching, composing, performing and recording.

Dobry den! I am a new expat to Prague, and I am looking to teach kids or adults of any age to start playing guitar, and learn a little conversational English in the process. The lesson format would look something like this:

- We go over guitar basics - chords, scales, form, etc.
- We pick a few songs of your choosing (or I can select some classic songs) that we can work through until you can play them all the way through.
- We continue learning as much as you'd like!

My classes are meant for anyone who has the basic knowledge of music theory and notation, and who has compositional ideas that need expressing. My classes are meant for anyone who has the basic knowledge of music theory and notation, and who has compositional ideas that need expressing. The lesson content can range between preparatory lessons for University/Academy Composition study entrance exams to consulting with independent composers or postgraduates.
You can sign for regular lessons (weekly, monthly) or take an individual lesson

- I can tutor you in all stages of your compositional process, from sketching ideas and notation to strategies for rehearsing your music.
- I am able to see value in compositions regardless of style and technique. I can advise you specifically with: composing in the idioms of contemporary instrumental, vocal, and choral music, atonal, tonal, and microtonal composition, timbral and noise composition, extended instrumental composition, interdisciplinary composition, and with contemporary music analysis.

- If you are interested in more topics, contact me anyway - I will tell if I can teach it.

- I was born in Helsinki, Finland in 1990 and studied academically as follows:
HAMU Prague, composition PhD (M.Rataj, H.Barton) (2018-2022)
Sibelius Academy Helsinki, composition BA & MA (T.Nevanlinna, V.Puumala) (2009-2016)
Kunstuniversität Graz, composition Erasmus studies (including B.Furrer, P.Billone, G.F.Haas) (2012-2013)

- I have given composition lectures at prestigious universities in Budapest (F.Liszt), Brussels (KCB), Graz (KUG), Helsinki (Uniarts Sibelius Academy), Prague (HAMU), New York (Columbia Univ.), and at festivals (Freiburg, Helsinki).

- I work around Europe as a freelance composer, part-time teacher at the Sibelius Academy (Helsinki, Finland) and singer for contemporary music premieres (Helsinki Chamber Choir, Chamber Choir Ireland). I am mostly based in Prague (CZ) and Helsinki (FIN).
- My works have been performed on five continents since my youth, 2002.
- Competitions won: DYCE (2019 and 2020), Uuno Klami junior competition (2007)
- Several pupils tutored individually in Helsinki since 2014
- Basic music theory courses teacher (2010-2018, 2020-2021), about 100 pupils this far
- Works published by BabelScores, member of the Society of Finnish Composers, concert curator (the MicroFest format in Helsinki and Prague)

I try to approach my students not as a cantor, but rather as a friend who, in a slightly novel way, draws attention to the material being discussed and, thanks to my experience in live performance and years spent in the music business, can see beyond the horizon of the music paper.

I have been conducting classes for adults and children from the age of 3. I will also help with preparing for lessons at the music school and entrance exams.

I individually tailor the teaching method using the Suzuki or notation approach. I suggest a repertoire from both classical and popular music, as well as arrangements of pieces you would like to play.

I will assist with music theory and learning to read sheet music. Depending on the method, the lessons last from 30 to 60 minutes.

You don't need to have an instrument - I provide a lever harp :)
