StephanieRiann Tutor Profile

Hello ! My name is StephanieRiann, I`m originally from Nova Scotia, Canada but now make my home in Kanagawa, Japan with my Japanese husband. 

   I had been teaching English lessons for 3 years (2017-2020) at a leading English school in Japan where I had recieved exstensive training in teaching English.  Currently, I am also doing volunteer work teaching English at my local community centre twice a month here in Japan.  In Canada I volunteered to help Japanese people in the city of Toronto learn English through daily conversation or help them study for TOEIC exam.

   I have  two undergraduate degrees from Acadia University in Nova Scotia and a Masters of Music degree from the University of Ottawa in Canada. I have multiple EP and LP albums avaliable on all digital music retailors sites worldwide (under my former performing name Stephanie Coldwell-Anderson, East n`West Canadian band as lead singer) and my final album Ultralife was released in August 2019.  I`m currently taking a long term break from performing life and songwriting/ arrangment collaborations. I am currently working on a music project that I hope I will be able to share with my Cafetalk community in the coming year. I have been the reciepient of a FACTOR/Government of Canada recording grant for my original childrens songs on my album entitled ADVENTURER.  I am also a member of SOCAN (the Society of Composers, Authors and Music Publishers) of Canada.  
                           

   I have been teaching music (voice, piano, theory and songwriting) for over 15 years (in Canada) were I had thriving in-home studios in the proviences of Nova Scotia and Ontario as well as at the private music school Merriam Music in Toronto, Ontario. In Canada, I was also a Registered Music Teacher with ORMTA (Ontario Registared Music Teachers Association). I had continued teaching music (English through singing) in Japan by volunteering at my local community centre until Feb 2020. I am now continuing my passion for teaching singing though Cafetalk. 

   Teaching is one of my passions and I wish to bring joy to people of all ages through learning music and/or English.  When I`m not teaching my hobbies are trying to improve and continue learning Japanese, doing Japanese culture/music experiences, cooking, hiking, traveling and camping with my husband. ( see more pictures below)


 
    I aim to make my lessons fun and energetic, with a relaxed atmosphere.   I also believe if your laughing you`re learning so let`s have a good time. Lessons are avaliable right away or by trail lesson this is the students choice.  Currently, my English and music lessons are geared towards all age groups.  English lessons are customized by level, Introductory, Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced as well as free talk classes .

Let`s work together as a team and have fun learning!
I look forward to meeting you soon!
