Overview:
I am a Taiwanese American violinist and I grew up in Boston. I started playing piano when I was 5 and then the violin at age 8. I enjoys teaching students of all ages and encourages early beginners! As an avid life long learner, I attend as many Suzuki teacher trainer courses as possible, and I love the Starling Delay Symposium as a resource for my own playing and for teaching students. I love the violin because of its potential as a tool to develop and grow each individual’s mind and soul. Teachers that have shaped my heart and playing include, Kyung Sun Lee, Mikyung Kim, Laurie Smukler, Soh-hyun Altino, Joy Brown Wiener, Yoko Takebe and Michael Gilbert. I currently lives in Memphis with my husband Jordan and our 3 dogs.
EXPERIENCE
My first experience with teaching was as a 15 year old counselor at a week long violin summer camp in Maine that my private teacher was running. It was a really fun summer of outdoor violin practice, board games, fishing, swimming, watching movies and cooking together. Since then, I have been teaching private lessons and also enjoyed 2 summers teaching at Interlochen. My students are active in the local community and we participate in most of the local opportunities such as All west, youth symphonies, and competitions. I continue to work on my teaching skills through Suzuki training programs, the Starling Delay Symposium and my community of fellow teachers.
METHODS USED
I teach the with Suzuki method. The Suzuki Method focuses on the Mother Tongue Method and was created by Dr. Sinichi Suzuki. He, and I, believe that every child is able to play music beautifully. The method emphasizes listening and parental involvement. I look to find the balance between challenge and enjoyment for each student. I enjoy working closely with the main violin parent and getting to know my students through our time together with the violin. My goal for each student is excellence, how and when each student gets there looks very different.
LESSON STYLE
My teaching style works with many different personalities and ages. What I found is that it works best with parents and students who are committed and disciplined in their violin practice at home. It is important for all three of us to realize the commitment we are making when we start our lessons together. Our relationships will thrive with open communication and hard work from each of us. I enjoy getting to know each student's learning style and encouraging them to achieve excellence. I begin each semester with some specific goals in mind for each of my students and with each lesson, I work to make them into a refined and beautiful musician that can one day enjoy playing Mozart or playing in an ensemble.

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.
