About the teacher

Eugenie’s musical education began prior to her birth when her mother sang hymns and lullabies to her unborn child. Her musical upbringing is a testament to the richness and value of an early childhood music experience.

Throughout her childhood, Eugenie studied a variety of musical instruments including piano, flute and cello, participated in the Toronto Children’s Chorus, and graduated from the Claude Watson School for the Arts. Following her graduation from York University with her Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Education (Primary/Junior focus) degrees, Eugenie discovered her passion for teaching early childhood music and pursued it wholeheartedly. She completed her Advanced Certificate in Early Childhood Music Education through the Royal Conservatory of Music and Ryerson University. Eugenie is certified in Kodály Pedagogy and Orff Pedagogy, and Dalcroze Eurhythmics training.

Eugenie’s teaching experience to date includes delivery of Early Childhood Music programming at Toronto District School Board, Kingsway Conservatory of Music, various Montessori schools and daycares, and special education music instruction for autistic children.

She has been teaching private piano for over 10 years with over 50 students.
