Chess Scholars collaborates with local private schools to offer after-school enrichment opportunities to students (besides chess, they also offer acting, engineering, guitar, and more).
In-Home Piano Teacher
Dec, 2008 - Sep, 2009McMillan Music School
When I worked for McMillan Music School, the teachers of various instruments would get their students together to form "rock bands" and cover songs in rock concert style student recitals that would be held in local venues. I learned a great deal from this experience and am willing to help any students who want to go down this venture of keyboard learning.
