Guitar: For children, I prefer the FJH Young Beginner Guitar method, but for adults I would prefer Hal Leonard if the student is looking to learn both chords and melody using folk music. I could also teach guitar based on gospel and Christian praise music if the student prefers. I have taught students with an interest in rock music, but only to give them the basic foundation skills of chords and notes to build on with another teacher who has more of a rock music speciality.

For beginning students, I typically start with the universal drum exercises every drummer should know, like the Ted Reed's book "syncopation" or the very classic "stick control". These exercises are mostly for warm ups, hand coordination, internalizing rhythm, and speed training. Depending on their musical background, I often like to introduce basic music theory concepts just so we are able to speak the same language. Once a foundation is set, I quickly move to what the student's interests are. Read More

It is vital to show every student how talented they are. I set students up for success by giving them goals that are objective, acheivable, and flexible. Students should know exactly what I expect for the next lesson, so they can be be prepared. My goals for students are never to frustrate them, but challenge them to be better than they thought they could be. I like to leave each lesson with specific goals, but these goals have lots of room for "extra credit," meaning that students can experiment on thier own time with the exercises, allowing them to develope thier own unique musical style.

For beginng students i like to start with Hal Lenords guitar 1 book and progress from there. I like to start kids with reading notation and little melodies cause it will help them in the long run. As they progress we will move to more advanced methods. I also use books when teaching such as guitar 1 to 3 it helps students learn how to correctly play rhythms as well as read music notation.

Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I'm pleased to share the successes of my students over the years:
1. While teaching at Dulwich College, I focused on fostering a passion for music in each student. Although it was a relatively short tenure, I established effective communication with parents to ensure they were kept informed of their child's progress.
2. During my time at Soochow University, I achieved remarkable results. I'm proud to say that I achieved the highest average score for all students in the university's history, with an average of 90 out of 100 points. Additionally, I produced the highest-scoring individual student in the university's history, who scored 95 out of 100 points. Furthermore, one of my students secured a top position at the Concerto Competition, winning 3rd place. Perhaps most importantly, I played a pivotal role in 96% of my students gaining professional employment, and they have maintained successful careers to this day.
3. As a Music Instructor and Orchestra Assistant at the festival, I customized violin/viola lessons for young musicians aged 10-18. I monitored their progress through regular assessments, which ultimately led to outstanding performances. I also organized masterclasses and provided a platform for students to showcase their talents, helping them elevate their skills for festival concerts.
4. In my private studio, I conducted weekly and bi-weekly private violin and viola lessons for students aged 10-19. I taught a wide range of repertoire and essential techniques, catering to both beginner and advanced students.
5. At Muzika, I enhanced students' musical proficiency by conducting General and Instrumental Music Classes. I also collaborated with Nord Anglia Chinese International School by teaching violin ensemble. Additionally, I provided online tutoring to international students from Germany, China, and Taiwan.
6. In Germany, I taught Music Theory, Violin, and Viola in group and private lessons, working with students aged 6-12. I also assisted in creating a customized curriculum to accommodate the diverse student population.
7. At Taiwan Adventist College, I coached the High School Quartet Seniors, leading them to a 1st place finish at the Taiwan National competition. I also assisted College Ear Training and Dictation students in their preparation for quizzes and exams. Additionally, I taught in after-school programs to provide extra learning opportunities for students.
8. During my tenure as a Private Violin and Viola Student Teacher in Taiwan, I guided students successfully through various challenges, including entrance exams and competitions. One notable achievement was mentoring a violin student to achieve 3rd prize in the Taiwan National Competition.
9. While working at Taipin Elementary School, I led the school orchestra to a 3rd place finish in the Taiwan National Competition. I emphasized innovation, critical thinking, and emotional intelligence in my teaching approach.
In summary, my students have achieved outstanding results, including top scores, competition wins, and successful careers in music. I am dedicated to nurturing their talents and helping them reach their full potential in the world of music.
