Instruments: Piano Violin Viola Music Keyboard
For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Hal Leonard's Essential Elements for violin students and piano adventures for piano students. Once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for their first recital performance. During the lessons, I'll also let them come up with their own music or I'll play a duet with students. That way they're not only learning the instruments as well as being creative. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet
Each student learns differently, therefore I will be constantly working to see what style of teaching works best for each individual. I have found that constant encouragement keeps students engaged and eager to learn and to let the music itself challenge the student. By finding out what a student is most interested in we can keep their love of music alive and use it to help them further learn to reach their goals. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trumpet French Horn
You or your child must agree to arrive at each lesson punctually, well-prepared, and with your instrument, assignment books, and music. To maintain sustainable progress, quality daily practice is necessary. Never be afraid to ask questions! You, your child, and I are on the same musical team and we are on a mission to help achieve your musical goals. If something is happening at home or school that is affecting you, please feel free to share this information. Read More

I am a fun and easy going instructor who loves working with students of all ages. I graduated from London College of Creative Media in 2018 with a degree in performance and production. I also have a certificate in guitar. Performing in Europe was one of my greatest experiences while living overseas. I also sang in the LCCM gospel choir and won the first place at the University Gospel Choir of the Year in 2015. Read More

It is vital that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I feel just as strongly that every student be using material that they want to learn to maintain interest and to maximize the enjoyment of learning. Folk, Pop, Rock, HipHop, Jazz, Latin, Classical ... the list goes on and on. On signature feature is keeping track of the lesson progress, repertory and artists to gain inspiration. I uncover what inspires each student. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Viola
For violin and viola lessons, I start my beginning students off with the violin/viola instrument hold as well as the bow hold. Once one has gotten the feel for holding the instrument as well as the bow, I teach the student the open strings of the instrument, followed by a one octave scale, with basic note reading exercises. After that, I begin the student on the Suzuki method. For piano students, I start by teaching beginning students three notes in treble clef (right hand) and bass clef (left hand). Read More
Instruments: Piano Synthesizer Music
For young beginner students, I will begin with the Farber or Alfred all-in-one books. Once the student has progressed through the book, we will move on international piano books. I have used many of the pedagogy books, and I know how to find best curriculum for getting students to where they need to be technically and musically. Most of my youngest students will play a few of the pieces from Alfred book. Read More
Instruments: Piano Flute Harmonica Music Keyboard Classical Guitar
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
It was a gradual decision. When I was in high school, I used to want to be a therapist, but I also like music. So I chose a school that offers a music education major ranked top 1 in my province and they have a psychology program ranked top 3 in the whole country, then I can use the resource in the school to learn whatever I want. Afterward, I found that I'm more interested in creating things, so I chose a Composition Direction of the Music Education Department of my Bachelor's Degree finally.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
My grandma was the principal singer in the church when she was young. She has a big family and a lot of her family members are musicians. My Grandfather used to play clarinet in the band of his workplace. My parents didn't have a chance to be a musician, but both of them love music and has absolute pitch.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a Bachelor's Degree of Arts in Music Education Major and a Master of Music in Composition Major. I see highly of education and want to be responsible and reliable when teaching, so I chose to earn a Bachelor's Degree that contained a teaching license issued by the government of my country. Music composition is the thing I'm interested in and it is also a major that requires the most amount of knowledge of music, such as music theory and music history. I like to read a lot and write music, and the orchestra score reading requirements can use most of my piano skills, so this major is appropriate for me.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
Copland's Piano Variation. It is beautiful and interesting when you analyze it in a professional aspect: It sounds like a serial piece but it is actually not, and it looks like unplayable but it is well written as a piano piece, nothing is impossible. It is just hard to play well. I would recommend the orchestra version to the beginners, in the case of it is more understandable.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I saw someone play the flute on the stage and I liked the sound. So I decided to learn it.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I like to play traditional music, popular music, and folk music. Traditional music lasts because it can be heard for a thousand times without being bored. Folk music, for me, is the folk music in my country, they are unique and come from real life, I like the stories behind them. Popular music is something like fast food when I want to relax, I can be free to have some fun in a short time.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I would be a scientist, a vet or therapist. I had a good chemical and biology score in high school and now I can still remember the whole chemical element chart (in Chinese). I love animals and became a vegetarian because of this, so a vet was also one of my dream works. I read a lot of books about Abnormal Psychology and Criminal Psychology because I was indicted to deductive novels.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Insist on practicing and get used to practicing.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I would likely to use the music of Burgnlueller, Lemoine, Czerny, Hanon, Bach, and Beethoven for most of my students.
These persons' works contained the most important piano skills and music knowledge for students no matter they want to be professional or just play for fun.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Cooperated with a director and wrote film music, and played the piano part by myself.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I had a small toy piano when I was a 1-year-old child. I started to repeat the music I heard in TV ads since I got the toy and the music is all correct. So my parents bought me a piano and I started to learn it.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Two hours/day for non-professionals.

Melissa
My husband is interested in taking piano lessons and I would like to inquire about rates. He owns a keyboard and would be open to either in home or studio lessons.
Vladimir
I would like to inquire about piano and possible voice lessons. I would prefer a lesson schedule that meets once per month, but for a longer duration than weekly lessons.
Jeanne
I am inquiring about piano lessons for my 8 year old son and possibly guitar lessons for my 7 year old son. I am looking for home instruction. Thanks!
