Portuguese with Mikela H.

I am a professional harpist and also have experience in piano, voice, and guitar. I have been playing the harp for 16 years and am currently studying under Dr. Nicole Brady and Anamae Anderson as a senior at Brigham Young University. I have performed in various settings, including orchestras, recordings, solo performances, and small ensembles, and I know just how to help you reach your goals as a musician! Music is my passion, and I love to share it with others. My personal mantra is, as Beethoven said, "Do not only practice your art, but force your way into its secrets; art deserves that, for it and knowledge can raise man to the divine." I also offer my services as a Portuguese tutor. I lived in Portugal for 18 months teaching others and giving service, and have since taken multiple classes on Portuguese grammar, literature, and culture. I am fluent in Portuguese and accept students whose first language is Portuguese for any of the subjects I teach. I find great joy in the diversity of life, and feel strongly that the learning experience should be catered to each individual! Each of us thinks, feels, and learns in a way that is beautifully unique, and as your teacher my fulfillment comes from helping you learn and grow in a way that is personally suited to your passions, needs, and goals.
