Teaching Philosophy as an educator, I believe that being a successful teacher is similar to being an outstanding artist. In other words, to be a teacher means to have creativeness and imagination. The act of creating a high-level of piano performance is a gradual process of learning and an excellent educator is marked by experience and dedication. Sharing ideas and knowledge can be considered a major gift if one considers the role of the educator in the 21st century. Furthermore, it is crucial to establish a high level of communication between teachers and students. An accomplished educator enjoys his work since he has a special talent to do this task. The outstanding teacher valorizes the leadership, experience, and dedication and the educator is responsible for his/her continuing education. With all these ideas in mind, I intend to incorporate this philosophy into my teaching career.
