Meet the Teacher



      

                          HELLO !! Welcome and thanks for stopping by my website!

Classes have begun and I  so excited to see all my old students back and welcome all my new students. What a great first week we have had and I am so impressed with all the kids practising hard for their " climb the wall" incentive and playing so well in their second lesson!! WOW! This should be an exciting year!.

Last year my students did extremely well in each of their levels and performed impressively at the annual recital. I also had great results from the MYC Composition Festival, Kiwanis Music Festival, RCM Theory and Piano exams as well. I am so proud of my students and their hard work and their achievements and kudos to their parents for their continued support throughout. I am looking forward to working hard with all my students this year too!

                                ABOUT THE TEACHER

                    Fiona Mendes B.S.C, L.T.C.L, R.M.T. ,MYCC

Fiona obtained her Licentiate in Piano ( Performers) through the Trinity College of Music London in 1993 and has been teaching music ever since. She is currently a Registered Music Teacher affiliated with the KW-branch of the Ontario Registered Music Teachers Association( ORMTA).

She has taught privately with great results and in a school and has been very active in her church, training young kids to play keyboard at Mass. In Kitchener she worked for two years at the Grand River School of Music , teaching the Technics music curriculum and has been teaching the MYC program since 2005.

For the last 7 years, Fiona has enjoyed working with parents and children in the MYC program. She is amazed at how quickly young children grasp musical concepts presented very creatively through the MYC program and are able to play so well.She also enjoys seeing the bonding between parents and children in her class and loves to see the adults encouraging the little ones in every class. She feels fortunate to have such a lovely set of parents and kids every year!. Having won a few piano awards during her student years, she works hard with her students towards festivals and exams. She is very impressed with how MYC students do extremely well in  the Kiwanis Music Festival and exams every year. Composition has always been one of her strong points and she has had a finalist or a winner each year in the annual MYC International Composition Festival. She also teaches privately and again is amazed at how fast her MYC graduates seem to go through the various piano levels after Grade One. Their strong training and the foundation laid in the MYC program helps them accelerate through the various Conservatory levels later on.

Fiona really enjoys her job and hopes to pass on her love of music and her sense of dedication to her students !!
