Instruments: Piano Voice
Voice students can expect training rooted in the classical style, focusing on healthy and powerful voice production. For all genres of singing, the classical style forms a healthy and sustainable base to explore from. My pedagogy is focused on an open and sustained torso, a free jaw, tongue, and neck, and light and focused breath pressure. Additionally, students will be taught optimal position for vowel formation and resonance and proper alignment of the body. Read More

I choose the books according to my assessment of the student during the introductory lesson. The Faber Method is one of the more popular ones. I also use the Alfred All-in-One books series. As supplemental material, I use Keynote Speller by Shaum and Line a Day by Keith Snell. For solo repertoire, I select methods based on the skills and favorite pieces of each student. Recently, there have been published and won the love of millions of teachers and students around the world, 2-books "Tales of Musical Journey" by Irina Gorin, for beginners. Read More

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
When we sing, there are many muscles are working together. However, the problem is that the muscles are not shown by our eyes because those are in our bodies. Furthermore, the muscles are totally different depending on people. So, knowing their own instrument (body and voice) is the hardest thing. Second, the voice is in our body. So, the voice can be changed according to their condition. To maintain steady voice, I think singers need to practice a lots. I think repeated practice is only way to remember their voice perfectly.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
When I had a private lesson at Texas, my student awarded second place for a vocal competition. When I started to teach him he has a bad habit for signing while he has a great voice. So, I tried to fix his bad habit. His bad habit was stuffy sound which causes artificial voice. For this reason, he tended to push his voice a lot. To fix this problem, I made an effort to let him know his natural voice. Of course, he felt it was really weird and stranger. After fixing this bad habit, he was able to improve his voice quickly. When he found his voice and sing with natural voice he won the competition.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Ironically, my goal was being a math teacher because I was really good at math and science. However, my goal was changed when I was high school student. My parents are strong christians. So, I naturally went to church with my parents. In the church, I liked to play a guitar and a drum. I was able to sing in church choir many times. Through the experience, I recognized that I like to sing a lots and my voice is different from others. Also, the choir conductor encouraged me to study voice many times. With his courage, I could decide to study voice.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Music field is really competitive. I have worked at Opera North last summer for two months. When I got young artist program at Opera North, I was really honored because it was really competitive to get it. There were over 600 applicants who applied that program. However, only 16 singers could join the program. Through the program, I could improve my musicality and had good opportunity to sing on the stage. Second, I often sing at church offering or special service. After singing, when people told me your singing made me touched and comfort I feel really happy and proud of me.
