Years of Experience: 3 Location Options: In Studio, In Home, In Webcam Travel Radius: 11 Genres: Blues, Jazz, Classical, Acoustic, RB, Gospel Age Groups: Children, Young Adult, Adult Instruments Taught: Vocal Lessons,Song Writing Lessons Overview: Hi Music Fam! My name is Imani, I am a singer, song writer, and an actress from Orlando, FL. I have been a student of music for about 20 years. My musical inspirations come from everything around us. I choose to listen to all types of music to gather a concept of creativity, while also soaking up all the love nature has to offer. My preference is to incorporate everything that we are on our journey into our music and creative contributions...this also assists with my love of fashion!! :D My teaching style is best described as creative, cooperative and challenging. I like this style because I choose to communicate with my students as though we are simply holding conversation. I want the students to continuously use critical thinking because it is imperative for them to work the required problem or exercise out on their own, while cooperatively communicating the lesson the educator. I enjoy challenging my students to teach me the lesson, because it enables them to see the material and concepts from many vantage points, and increases their level of optimism. In my lessons, you can expect to learn good communications skills, stage presence, creative problem solving... and the rest you'll just have to experience! I like to tell my students "the possibilities are endless, it's all up to you." If I had a favorite thing about teaching, it would be simply enjoying the company of another person and learning from them as they learn from me. A performance I truly enjoyed is one of my family's recurring" Family Holiday Concert on the Lake." My family and I host a free community concert every year in an effort to build and promote the creativity in our young student artists and musicians. My students love that I am funny and easy to talk to, they also find my advice to be very beneficial in their everyday lives. I primarily teach music, but I can also teach English, Science basic biology because it's so fun, basic* Video Production, and holistic health. My approach as a teacher is to expose my students to as much as possible. In this exposure process, they will learn that everything is connected to everything, from the foods we eat to the words we choose to speak. I am so happy I was able to share a piece of myself with you! Hope to meet you soon! Peace!
