About Me
My Name is Tamara Schmidt. I live with my husband, my beautiful daughter and our two dogs in Edmonton, Alberta. I currently homeschool my daughter and I absolutely love it. I am a classically trained pianist with over 16 years of teaching experience. I have a diploma in Occupational Therapy Assisting through Grant MacEwan University and prior to having my daughter I worked in pediatrics at the Glenrose Rehabilitation Hospital on a psychiatric unit and in their school rehabilitation program coordinating art programs and aiding the children with their fine and gross motor skills. After having my daughter I began working at Montessori Preschool where I created and taught their music program. I also have my Child Development Supervisor certification through the province of Alberta (formerly known as Level 3 Early Childhood Development worker) and I have a passion for play, child led learning and process art.
Along with my love of music I love creating!! From crafts to soaps to clothing...if I can make it myself I will!!
My daughter and I love spending our time painting, drawing, or making crafts out of our recyclables or things we find outside. We also love spending time outdoors enjoying what mother nature has to offer.
My perfect day would include time with my family (preferably doing something active outdoors) an opportunity to play the piano and or sing, and a chance to create something with my hands.
Credentials:
Occupational Therapy Assisting Diploma from Grant MacEwan University
Child Development Supervisor (formally known as Level 3 Early Childhood Educator)
Elementary Piano Pedagogy from The Royal Conservatory of Music
Elementary, Intermediate and Advanced Piano Specialist Certification from The Royal Conservatory of Music
Advanced Theory from The Royal Conservatory
