Instruments: Piano
For beginning students, I choose Alfred's Basic Piano Library and Faber Piano Adventures, and other brands/materials that fits the need of the student. I often made teaching materials myself, as well as writing music for my students. The most important thing for beginners are keeping interest and correct postures. Starting from songs the student recognize usually helps. For advance students, I usually recommend repertoire covering all 4 classical periods, plus etudes and finger trainings. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I really like to accommodate student's strengths but also work on their weakness as well so that they become well-rounded musicians. I often try to put myself in the student's shoes and can understand really well how learning is from their point of view which often makes me a very in-tune and versatile teacher. I have been often told from many students that i am extremely patient, encouraging and passionate, which is what they appreciate the most. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar
I tailor each lesson to the unique self and stage of musical development of the student and actively create custom lesson plans and materials to best suit their progress and musical curiousities. Improvisation and rhythm games, music theory essentials, and instrumental basics are core components of my teaching practice. Read More
Instruments: Piano Flute Music
Learning about music involves so much more than technique or scales, but also relies so much on their emotions and mindset. I want to prioritize their own independence within these lessons in regards to choosing their own repertoire or experimenting with their own compositional style so that they can embrace how liberating and fun learning about music and being creative can be, rather than seeing it as a chore! I also want to make sure that their musical journey is built with the right mindset - a lot of the time there is unnecessary toxic, competitive energy within other musicians which defeats the whole purpose of inspirational collaboration that can come from playing music with others.

Instruments: Piano Keyboard
I am a passionate and dedicated person with 10+ years of experience as a part time piano teacher. Teaching piano to others is one of my hobbies. Music has been a part of my life from a very early age. I started learning to play piano when I was 6. From my musical experience, I have strong skills in teaching basic as well as advanced piano lesson to all age students. I went to UC Berkeley for college and minor in music in 2016. Read More
Instruments: Piano Cello Keyboard
For beginner students I like to start them with basic principles such as how to properly hold the bow and how to properly sit with the cello. I like to use methods such as Suzuki to work on musicality, and Essential elements to work on basics. For intermediate I like to work with the Popper etudes and the Bach Cello Suites, I also add some of the more advanced Suzuki books. Read More
Instruments: Piano Music Keyboard
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Classical is what I was taught and is the most pleasant to listen to casually from a pianist in my opinion. However I like all genres of music!
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I am a beginner at the guitar and recorder. My dad plays the guitar so that was initially the instrument I wanted to learn.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Maybe a track runner or a businesswoman. I was very interested in long distance track running and nearly majored in business in university. However I did not go through with either of those routes.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Yes it does! My cousin is a music prodigy who writes sheet music from auditory listening, he also writes his own music. I have 3 siblings who also play music. Two play piano and guitar, one plays the drums, and one also plays the violin and trumpet. There are usually jam sessions happening at my parent’s house!
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 for myself. I had surpassed my teachers and knew I wanted to continue learning and performing. I continued to study and perform for auditions and moved onto events from there, eventually becoming the pianist for my local church.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I was taught with Faber, Suzuki, and Alfred. I like Suzuki for the music but am not much of an auditory learner myself - however I do recommend all students listen to the songs they are learning so they understand how it's supposed to sound when they play. I usually stick to one of the three methods above since that is what I'm familiar with, however if a student has a particular method they are learning I am willing to work with them to continue that path if it seems good for them.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice session starts out with me doing some scales and fingering exercises to get my fingers warmed up. Then I practice the key for the piece I'm learning. After that I start with the section of music I'm dedicated to memorizing at that time. I usually try to play a whole section at a time, or whenever the music naturally takes a break, until I can get both hands down comfortably and start to memorize the piece. Then I move onto the next section until I've completed the song. This can take weeks or months depending on the length of the piece I am learning and the time I dedicate to learning it.
