Personally:
Mrs. Busovsky lives in Newark with her husband, son and dogs. When she is not with her students, she enjoys kayaking, reading, scrapbooking, gardening, Philadelphia sports, coffee, running her son to his activities and spending time with her family. As a kid, Mrs. Busovsky's dream was to tour the world as a professional singer/backup singer! She found her passion for becoming an educator in high school and a new dream of being a music teacher was born!

Teaching Philosophy: Mrs. Busovsky believes that all children are musical! Her role as a teacher is to help children tap into their musical abilities by providing them with a safe environment where they can learn and grow and be free to be themselves. There are no 'mistakes' in music and children need to know it is ok to not be perfect as it is all part of the creative learning process. Mrs. Busovsky enjoys providing her students with numerous possibilities; from making music just for fun or auditioning for various Honor Choirs, All-State Choirs, School Solos or Musical Roles.  Mrs. Busovsky feels that a strong music education is important in the well-rounded growth and development of children and the skills they learn in the classroom and/or private lesson (creativity, discipline, cooperation, flexibility and courage, just to name a few) are ones that will be beneficial  in adulthood. 

Private Studio: 
Mrs. Busovsky has been teaching private piano and voice lessons for 25 years at Caravel and her home studio
Lessons are available Mondays & Tuesdays after school at Caravel and Wednesdays in her home studio.  Mrs. Busovsky also offers General Music Lessons for younger students where they learn the basic fundamentals of music by playing a variety of instruments such as bells, resonator bars, piano, drums, and piano. Beginning ukulele lessons are also available. Contact Mrs. Busovsky for availability. Please note that in order to take private lessons, you will need to pay weekly lesson fees and will additionally need to purchase books and have the instrument of choice available at home for your child to practice. Students are required to practice the skills learned during lessons at home. For young children, we recommend parents to sit and encourage their children during their at home practice. Children develop into stronger musicians when parents take an active interest in their musical skills. If you find it to be a weekly argument to have your child practice at home or do not have the time to dedicate to at home practice, private lessons may not be the right fit at this particular time. Private teachers want music learning to be a fun and positive experience,  not just a chore!
