Nothing makes me feel better than seeing my students enjoy their time with the instrument! Therefore, I feel that it's necessary to fit my teaching style to the student's desire. I start the first lesson by asking them about the music that they listen to to get a sense of their music style. Furthermore, I am interested in the student's goals for their lessons. After asking these important question, I can contruct a personalized lesson plan based on the student's wants and needs. Read More

Throughout my high school and college years, I played in a few church bands and was presented with many opportunities for solo performances. Oftentimes, the music I played during services and at events was arranged by myself. Although I am classically trained, my musical strengths include playing by ear and creating my own arrangements of my favorite songs. I also love to study music theory and history, especially the history of jazz. Read More

Each lesson, we will start with stretches and warmups, and I will ask the student if there is anything they want to work on that day. After their lesson, we come up with a game plan together for their practice sessions in the coming week, including identifying which issues need to be worked on at home and how to do so. I view vocal study as collaboration, and above all, I believe it should be fulfilling and fun. Read More

For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Burnam's A Dozeon A Day and Faber's Piano Adventures.

For students who take ABRSM exam, I will not only focus on playing of three repertoire, but also the skills of sight-playing and ear-training. For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. Read More
