HOUSE KEEPING matters

New Teachers

We are pleased to welcome onboard Ms Alicia Hooimeyer and Ms Jacinta Na. 

Alicia is a vocalist and pianist. She holds a Bachelor of Music (Contemporary) degree from the Australian Institute of Music, Melbourne. 

Jacinta is currently in her 3rd year of a double degree program - the Bachelor of Secondary Education (Honours) and Music (Classical piano) at Monash University. She is also a former Forte student and grew up learning music the Forte way from a very young age. She is an accomplished pianist and is now honing her piano performance skills in both solo and collaborative works as well as music teaching skills at Monash University.

Both Alicia and Jacinta have completed an intensive 6 weeks of teacher training which focused on the Forte philosophy and pedagogy in our piano courses. Some of you may have already met them as both Alicia had started teaching on Fridays and Saturdays.

Here are a few words from Alicia and Jacinta as they begin their first full term in their teaching journey.
