About Katie Y.
Experience
Substitute Teacher
Aug, 2016 - PresentRUSD and SBUSD
I currently teach all subjects K-12 as a substitute teacher in the Redlands and San Bernardino School Districts.
Piano Instructor/ Preschool Music Instructor
Oct, 2016 - Jun, 2019The Redlands Conservatory of Arts and Sciences
At the Redlands Conservatory, I run a piano studio where I teach half an hour piano lessons. Most of my students, here, are between the ages of 4 and 16. . My students are expected to read and perform accurate rhythms. We strive to achieve perfect technique and work hard in training the ear. We use the fundamentals of ear training (solfege: do re mi fa sol la ti do) to better hear and memorize the melodic line. My students will learn to read and sing solfege, without the use of piano. This strengthens them as musicians and gives them a better understanding of their music. The Conservatory also sends me to Azure Hills and Loma Linda Academy to teach music in the preschool classes. In these classes, the students learn solfege, rhythm, musical vocabulary, and music history during fun, interactive games. At Azure Hills, I run a children's choir where we perform songs twice a year.
