My teaching style is relaxed and informal. I like to have a connection with my students and I usually achieve that through good sense of humor, simplicity and precision in the delivery of information and accuracy in the examples used to enhance the explanations. What you can expect as my student is a fun lesson, useful information, a lot of playing and feeling motivated to study until we meet on a next time. Read More

The methods I use change depending on the student, but generally, I use the following: - Piano: start with Alfreds (suited for age/proficiency), then choose a specialty (improvising, classical, pop, etc) - Guitar: start with Hal Leonard (for note reading), then choose a specialty (jazz, pop, classical, flamenco, etc) - Voice: because of the nature of the human voice, I dont use a book, but rather teach principles and methods to use during practice and performance Regardless of the instrument, I hope to help you improve as much as I can.

I am a passionate and motivated instructor who specializes in working with young beginning musicians.

My teaching style begins with my assessment of each student's abilities, physical, mental, and emotional. By this method I am able to design a realistic program for each student. Patience and encouragement go hand in hand, acknowledging their accomplishments all along the way. Once some fundamentals are established, I add pieces that the student has an interest in learning. In preparing for recitals I often accompany students which adds not only enjoyment for them but encouragement for them to overcome hesitancy to perform publicly. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
While performing, people would come up to me and ask me if I teach piano. I decided to begin teaching piano for a few students. Those students referred me to other potential piano students. Within a couple years I was teaching piano full time. A few years later, I began playing guitar and took lessons from many instructors. After playing guitar for a few years, as well as piano for 20 years, I considered those two instruments were the best two instruments in the world... Read More

It has become very addictive to me to see my students succeed. It is not all about them learning how to play an instrument, but also to have them believe in themselves. Trusting they can go beyond and know they can learn more than they could possible imagine. My students gain a lot of confidence when this happens. This does not happen from one day to another, but with a lot of discipline, effort, dedication and love for the music and the instrument that will make the sound become music. Read More

Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I'm pleased to share the successes of my students over the years:
1. While teaching at Dulwich College, I focused on fostering a passion for music in each student. Although it was a relatively short tenure, I established effective communication with parents to ensure they were kept informed of their child's progress.
2. During my time at Soochow University, I achieved remarkable results. I'm proud to say that I achieved the highest average score for all students in the university's history, with an average of 90 out of 100 points. Additionally, I produced the highest-scoring individual student in the university's history, who scored 95 out of 100 points. Furthermore, one of my students secured a top position at the Concerto Competition, winning 3rd place. Perhaps most importantly, I played a pivotal role in 96% of my students gaining professional employment, and they have maintained successful careers to this day.
3. As a Music Instructor and Orchestra Assistant at the festival, I customized violin/viola lessons for young musicians aged 10-18. I monitored their progress through regular assessments, which ultimately led to outstanding performances. I also organized masterclasses and provided a platform for students to showcase their talents, helping them elevate their skills for festival concerts.
4. In my private studio, I conducted weekly and bi-weekly private violin and viola lessons for students aged 10-19. I taught a wide range of repertoire and essential techniques, catering to both beginner and advanced students.
5. At Muzika, I enhanced students' musical proficiency by conducting General and Instrumental Music Classes. I also collaborated with Nord Anglia Chinese International School by teaching violin ensemble. Additionally, I provided online tutoring to international students from Germany, China, and Taiwan.
6. In Germany, I taught Music Theory, Violin, and Viola in group and private lessons, working with students aged 6-12. I also assisted in creating a customized curriculum to accommodate the diverse student population.
7. At Taiwan Adventist College, I coached the High School Quartet Seniors, leading them to a 1st place finish at the Taiwan National competition. I also assisted College Ear Training and Dictation students in their preparation for quizzes and exams. Additionally, I taught in after-school programs to provide extra learning opportunities for students.
8. During my tenure as a Private Violin and Viola Student Teacher in Taiwan, I guided students successfully through various challenges, including entrance exams and competitions. One notable achievement was mentoring a violin student to achieve 3rd prize in the Taiwan National Competition.
9. While working at Taipin Elementary School, I led the school orchestra to a 3rd place finish in the Taiwan National Competition. I emphasized innovation, critical thinking, and emotional intelligence in my teaching approach.
In summary, my students have achieved outstanding results, including top scores, competition wins, and successful careers in music. I am dedicated to nurturing their talents and helping them reach their full potential in the world of music.
