Orff and Kodály are the requirements throughout my college study, which I integrated into my teaching and found it helpful for developing students' sense of music. I am familiar with the major piano teaching system, including Faber, Bastien, Alfred and Baker. I evaluated the student's instinct on the piano at the first lesson to decide which material is good for them. I will encourage them to find the music they want to play, more importantly, I will adjust the music to their level so they can enjoy it more. Read More

For beginning students, I start with Randal and Nancy Faber's Piano Adventure books, which includes lesson books, performance books, and theory books as well. Once the students have a grasp on the fundamentals, they will then move on to solo repertoire for their first recital performance. For adolescents to young adults, based on how they are learning with their piano teacher, I can help with the student decide what repertoire they should learn for Student Day, the National Guild of Piano Teachers, etc. Read More

Teaching is one of the most rewarding careers there can be!

Keeping a positive attitude during the session is a must and it keeps the student engaged and happy while also learning! Read More

My teaching style is dynamic, depending on my student's skill level. The progress of a student's musical skill is dependent on their willingness to practice and focus on improvement discussed during our lessons. Each student of course is on their own path and pace. Positive reinforcement and setting goals are both important to a student's development. Understanding what the student wants to get out of their music lessons is a vital aspect when it comes to their eagerness and enjoyment to practice and progress. Read More
