Bite-size Reading and Writing for ALL ages from 3+
This session is for 1 hour and I will send you an extensive report the following week. This class includes my wife as my guest speaker. a Reading Specialist. The result of this class, is not only to determine your learner's reading and writing age but also, the category of reader; as there are 6 main categories in reading; which I will discuss shortly. If your learner decides to remain in the class, the following weeks incudes puppets, games, story writing and much more. Once a week, we will work on reading strategies using puppets, show & tell and memory games Topic/Theme Week 1 - speaking & listening; finding out what the learner likes and hobbies. Topic/Theme Week 2 - Reading & Writing Reading Age Test. Topic/Theme Week 3 - How to read double & treble vowel blends and consonant blends. Topic/Theme Week 4 - onwards - Writing stories & books that we write together. The learners will receive comprehension, dictation, punctuation, grammar, parts of speech/language components (prepositions etc). All books read in class will be books that the learners have made via the whiteboard; which will then be sent to them as a message on the classroom wall; to print out for their own use. This class will also illustrate what areas need improvement. The student should know; In regards to reading: names of letters and their sounds, consonant blends, vowel blends, understand syllables, phonetic knowledge, cluster digraphs, compound words, linguistic tools, comprehension and how to use a dictionary & thesaurus. In regards to writing: letter forming, spelling, character description, stories/compositions, improvement in story telling. 12-16yr olds includes, note taking, essay writing, dictation, CV's & cover/formal letter writing, speed writing, script writing, debating & public speaking skills, poetry and writing for academic purposes. The overall goal is to present a clear path, to unleashing the hidden Author. The 60 minute Reading & Writing Ability Test in the 2nd class; is not only to determine the reading and writing age but also, the category of reader; as there are 6 main categories in reading: DEPENDENT (reader relies on an experienced reader for total help; like stories being read to them) EMERGENT (reader still relies on experienced reader, starts to hold book upright and turn pages of books 'pretending' to read and starts to 'scribble') INDEPENDENT (reader has sight word recognition, knows alphabet sounds, starts to read books with repeated words, forms coherent sentences) FLUENT (reader reads with confidence, but still needs help with unfamiliar words, uses syllables, cluster consonant digraphs, starts to use dictionary and write own stories) EXPERIENCED (reader can read fluently without help, knows how to work out unfamiliar words using many strategies including phonic knowledge and linguistic tools, uses dictionary & thesaurus, enjoys writing own stories, articles, is a good speaker and is speed reading). Our interest in reading starts for some as young as 3 years old, as DEPENDENT readers; especially if parents are always reading. At this stage we would give our 3-year-old aspirant, lots of puzzles, painting, drawing & colouring, letter art, shopping lists, etc; because the world is surrounded by colour and shapes (the left brain sees the word as a shape and the right brain sees a picture to explain the word/sentence). Let us not forget that reading and writing/composition go hand in hand; so, if you have a child that struggles with composition, they are 9 times out of 10 struggling with reading. From the age of 16 years old onwards, we should be SEASONED readers; once there isn't a cognitive deficit.

Using a dynamic methodology, I prepare my students in all areas of music, not only when playing the piano, but I teach them to be autonomous so that they can continue studying, in the future, without my help.

Professional electric bass: groove, technique and real musicality.
The classes are geared towards a solid, practical, and creative musical learning experience, where electric bass technique is developed alongside musical sensitivity and a deep understanding of the language of groove. My background as a professional musician includes work in diverse contexts of performance, composition, recording, and ensemble, in genres such as funk, jazz, rock, experimental music, and contemporary fusions, allowing me to offer a realistic perspective on the musical craft from multiple settings. The methodology is adapted to each student's level and objectives. It covers essential fundamentals such as posture, technique, timing, and sound, progressing to more advanced concepts like applied harmony, bass line construction, improvisation, and developing feel. Each class integrates technical exercises, ear training, and immediate musical application to real repertoire, with a practical and progressive approach. The content is organized in a structured yet flexible way, respecting the student's pace without losing pedagogical focus. The goal is for the student to understand music from within: how it is constructed, how it breathes, and how it communicates through the instrument. The approach is engaging, clear, and demanding, fostering discipline, active listening, and creativity. The goal is for students to gain confidence, musical independence, and the ability to express themselves. Rather than simply transmitting information, the process focuses on developing musical and artistic judgment. Each class guides the student in their technical and expressive evolution, helping them build a conscious and personal relationship with the electric bass.
