Our Preschool Faculty - In Their Own Words

ART FACULTY Lena Boot “My passion is working with preschool-age children, giving them opportunities to be creative in art. In the style of Reggio Emilia, I provide a creative art environment that gives children the opportunity to observe, inquire, explore and use fine motor and cognitive skills. Art provides them with an awareness of themselves and their surroundings.”

Viviana Leija-Sysak

Little Artists & Musicians: Family Fun

3-6 yrs

PRESCHOOL FACULTY

Sat, 2:30-3:15 PM

“My teaching philosophy is to let the students experiment and become connected with their first creative approach. I encourage them to explore the materials or change perspectives to have different results.

I also remind them that every artwork is unique, but the process of being involved is what makes students grow artistically and open their minds to creativity.”

MUSIC FACULTY Daniel Garcia “I have worked many years as an early childhood educator and I weave music into my daily curriculum. My background allows me to bring a unique teaching style to my classes, incorporating singing with guitar, musical games, movement and exploration of rhythm instruments.”

Lori Duino “I believe teachers challenge us to look at the ordinary until we discover the extraordinary. Vision is understanding what is before us without assumption and bringing to life that which we envision through our imaginations.”

Music Theory Program CSMA’s Music Theory program is an integral part of our complete music education. At all skill levels, students have the opportunity to enhance their private instrument lessons by studying music theory.

Why Study Music Theory?

Music theory is reading and writing the language of music. Our program teaches basic music comprehension skills to reinforce and expand on what is learned in private instrument lessons. Studying music theory helps students understand how the pieces they play are organized, making them better readers of music. Understanding music theory and the language of music makes better musicians.

Music School

Music Theory Levels • Theory Prep (Music Fundamentals & Intro to Music Theory for Children): These are beginning theory classes for young children.

• Theory 1-8: CSMA recommends levels 1-8 for all students. This is a great foundation of music theory fundamentals and gives students the tools they need to make connections between theory and performance.

• Harmony (Beg, Int, Adv): Advanced courses that cover harmonic function and analysis and show how concepts are put together to form musical phrases and compositions. These upper level courses are designed for students with a firm understanding of theoretical concepts.

• Music Theory for Adults I-IV: Classes are available for adult students at all levels, from beginning to advanced.

Interested?

• CSMA private lesson students receive a 50% discount on one Music Theory (or other Core Curriculum) class each semester (except summer).

• For more information, as well as direction on class placement, contact Yu-Chun Kuo, Music Class Manager at 650-917-6800, ext. 312, or email musicclasses@arts4all.org.

Please Note: Our interactive classes will be presented live through Zoom. A link to join the class will be sent via email prior to the first class meeting.

Private Art Lessons

Spring Semester 2021 | March 27 - May 28 (8 weeks) CSMA is pleased to offer private art lessons for students ages 5 through adult in a range of visual art media. Private lessons offer a highly individualized approach to both technique building and portfolio development. In Spring of 2021, lessons will be held online using videoconferencing tools.

In CSMA’s Private Art Lesson program, you’ll find: • Instruction for all levels and ages in traditional and digital art forms • Portfolio building for college applications, resumes or exhibition submissions • Faculty of accomplished professional artists and arts educators • Individualized attention and goal-setting in a positive, supportive environment • CSMA matches each private art lesson student with a faculty teaching artist best suited to help identify and support the student’s individual goals. Art lessons may focus on skill building with instruction on techniques in a particular media, such as charcoal drawing or watercolor painting, or may focus on a mix of visual art media. Lessons are also offered in portfolio building for personal, academic or professional use.
