Instruments: Piano Music

I try to get to know students personally and musically. My goal in teaching is to help students to pursue their goals whether as professional musicians or music lovers which are equally important to me. I dont ever set any fixed expectations and rules in teaching as they are all adjustable to me working with individuals who are all at different levels and share different values. I always talk to my students to figure out what they want to play and what they'd like to achieve by learning, and we would go from there by making customized plans. Read More

My teaching experience is not much. I had few students during my university period for about one year. Although a limited amount of time was put on teaching, I had wonderful experience with my piano teacher, Dr. Edvard Gregory Butler, who had already been teaching piano for over fifty years and truly altered my development. I had many incorrect way to practice, as well as many incorrect understanding, and he helped my to conquer those difficulties. Read More

Over the past 2-3 years, I've had the pleasure of working with many students and helping them find a unique voice. Music should be enjoyed, and I try to cater to the students needs, whether they need to work on something or if they're curious about certain concepts. I do encourage students to ask as many questions as possible, as not only does it keep them constantly learning, but it also allows me to guide them in the best possible manner to achieve their own musical goals and pursuits.

Every student learns differently and progresses at a different rate. In order to keep my students motivated, I balance tasks that each student finds easy and enjoyable with tasks that are more challenging. My students know that if they say something is too hard, I will ask them to try it again another way, using their strategies to problem solve. Most of the time, they find that it isn't too hard after all, which boosts their confidence. Read More

I believe a major key to success in learning music is finding the methods and concepts that click for you. There are infinite ways to think of a phrase or harmonic relationships and I work to learn which connections make sense to you. One major takeaway from my own education has been how to listen to my playing objectively and free of self-judgement. I constantly encourage my students to develop a similar mindset, since I see self-encouragement as much more important than encouragement from a teacher or an audience. Read More
