About Zabana

I believe every child is capable of greatness with the right combination of guidance and demonstration. My teaching style reflects my philosophy by meeting students where they are, and emphasizing problem solving and critical thinking skills. My goal is to help my students proficiently understand course concepts and be able to apply learned concepts to classroom settings effectively. Additionally, motivational support is crucial to optimal educational outomes, and your student is more than capable. This is why I utilize positive reinforcement strategies collaboratively with parents to help make learning and enjoyable, fun process. I have experience working with young kids as well as elementary, middle, high, and college levels of education, neurodivergent populations, gender diverse youth, and online learners. I am confident that I can support your student's learning in a plethora of subjects, including beginner music, as I was classically trained on trombone for 6 years.
