More About Me
Report
I was born and raised in a musical family where everyone plays at least one instrument. I started formal musical training when I was 4 years old. My first piano lesson was at Yamaha music school where I developed my love in music because I had a very loving and patient teacher who I adored as a little girl.
Teaching Philosophy
Report
I see music in every child. To play an instrument is only a skill. What turns a child from pianist, musician and artist is a journey beyond just practice or perfecting your repertoires. I often tell students that playing a piece of music is just like building a house. It is a very complex procedure.
Parents Info
Report
As a parent myself, I believe my kids are talented, smart and have a very promising future. But does talented mean that a student can skip fundamental skills and focus on playing one piece of music for years? Playing the piano or any other instrument is a work of art. It takes time to learn and time to mature.
Faq
Report
Most sports involves team works. Kids tend to have more fun when they play with their friends. Most of the dance studios does not require students to go home and practice. So does the art classes. Piano lessons require practice at home; it is like homework from school. You would not be able to improve if you do not do your homework.
Tuition
Report
If you and your friend(s) would like to learn how to play the piano together; as beginners, playing in a group setting would be a great start. If not, I may be able to find a good match for you. Parents who want to learn how to play the piano and enjoy playing with their kids will be offered a discount for parent and child lessons.
