After-school tutoring, the method of Montessori (AMI 6-12)

Entry-level lessons teach about rhythm, melody, harmony, duo play, replay, music listening and ear training, music notation, and sight-reading. Learning depends on your life experience and abilities. You can learn some days, some others may develop skills some years. I sing a little on a weekly bases. I have songbooks of some hundred songs. I'm the only mountain dulcimer player in Estonia. I sometimes play the tenor or bass recorder, digital saxophone, melodica, digital piano and other electronic keys at home. I record music at home. Learners can continue their studies in a music school or studio. Musical literacy is the reading, writing, and playing of music, as well as an understanding of cultural practice and historical and social contexts. Kopli is famous for bohemians and fine art. Young musicians can rent a music studio at the youth centre.

English is spoken at a useful level by some 1.75 billion people worldwide. Most of them can speak several more languages. The jobs of the future, however, will require workers with advanced literacy and numeracy skills. Only 1% of the global population has the abilities and competence to teach the English language. Digital literacy and intercultural communication are one of these skills you will learn in my lessons. General sessions have 8 levels of learning (vocabulary and grammar), business language has 4. Academic learning (C1) is divided into three parts. 1) Spoken language such as diction, acting on stories or poems, public speaking, debates and discussions, etc. 2) Reading exercises such as the main idea, supporting details, the author's purpose, organisation and text structures, the audience, evaluating arguments, drawing conclusions, tone and mood, meaning of words and phrases, figurative language, graphic structures of information and elements of fiction, etc. 3) Grammar and sentence structure such as the parts of speech, constructing sentences, capitalization, common language errors, the essay, writing a thesis statement, structuring the essay, providing supportive evidence, writing well, etc.
