Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet
My teaching experience began in my undergraduate days at Morehead State University. While teaching private lessons to students across Kentucky I also was a music theory tutor for my peers at Morehead. I have experience teaching students at all levels, from beginner to advanced levels. My theory and private lesson students always gained much improvement, and some of my advanced students even entered all state bands and competitions. No matter if a student is considering a career in music or just considers music a fun hobby and wants to improve, there’s always so much to learn! Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Viola
For violin and viola lessons, I start my beginning students off with the violin/viola instrument hold as well as the bow hold. Once one has gotten the feel for holding the instrument as well as the bow, I teach the student the open strings of the instrument, followed by a one octave scale, with basic note reading exercises. After that, I begin the student on the Suzuki method. For piano students, I start by teaching beginning students three notes in treble clef (right hand) and bass clef (left hand). Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet
What I love most about private lessons is that I have the flexibility to allow each student to move at his or her own pace. I can tailor my teaching methods and assignments to meet the individual needs of each student, to ensure that he or she is performing to his or her maximum potential. I encourage open communication between myself, the student, and the parent(s), so that we can all work together to make the musical experience as fun and exciting as possible! Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Violin Viola Recorder
I have been teaching privately for twelve years, and I have many different styles of teaching. I focused all of my lessons on what the goals are, and what are in the students best interests. Since I was nine years old I knew that I wanted to be involved in teaching music to others especially children. Every person should have a chance to learn music, and I strive to help students reach there goals every lesson. Read More

I am a passionate instructor who loves to watch students grow and develop. I am very involved and actively participate in each lesson, working with each student in order to learn together. I encourage students through positive reinforcement and attempt to instill a joy and love for music. By getting to know my students, I tailor lessons to their skill level and give each student control over how we learn and what we learn. Read More

I have successfully incorporated any and all of the major teaching systems.

I match learning style and musical style. I love to teach practical music theory, song writing and reading music. I can set up performance opportunities should student desire. Read More

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. When I was in high school, I used to want to be a therapist, but I also like music. So I chose a school that offers a music education major ranked top 1 in my province and they have a psychology program ranked top 3 in the whole country, then I can use the resource in the school to learn whatever I want. Afterward, I found that I'm more interested in creating things, so I chose a Composition Direction of the Music Education Department of my Bachelor's Degree finally.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
My grandma was the principal singer in the church when she was young. She has a big family and a lot of her family members are musicians. My Grandfather used to play clarinet in the band of his workplace. My parents didn't have a chance to be a musician, but both of them love music and has absolute pitch.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a Bachelor's Degree of Arts in Music Education Major and a Master of Music in Composition Major. I see highly of education and want to be responsible and reliable when teaching, so I chose to earn a Bachelor's Degree that contained a teaching license issued by the government of my country. Music composition is the thing I'm interested in and it is also a major that requires the most amount of knowledge of music, such as music theory and music history. I like to read a lot and write music, and the orchestra score reading requirements can use most of my piano skills, so this major is appropriate for me.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
Copland's Piano Variation. It is beautiful and interesting when you analyze it in a professional aspect: It sounds like a serial piece but it is actually not, and it looks like unplayable but it is well written as a piano piece, nothing is impossible. It is just hard to play well. I would recommend the orchestra version to the beginners, in the case of it is more understandable.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I saw someone play the flute on the stage and I liked the sound. So I decided to learn it.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I like to play traditional music, popular music, and folk music. Traditional music lasts because it can be heard for a thousand times without being bored. Folk music, for me, is the folk music in my country, they are unique and come from real life, I like the stories behind them. Popular music is something like fast food when I want to relax, I can be free to have some fun in a short time.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I would be a scientist, a vet or therapist. I had a good chemical and biology score in high school and now I can still remember the whole chemical element chart (in Chinese). I love animals and became a vegetarian because of this, so a vet was also one of my dream works. I read a lot of books about Abnormal Psychology and Criminal Psychology because I was indicted to deductive novels.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Insist on practicing and get used to practicing.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I would likely to use the music of Burgnlueller, Lemoine, Czerny, Hanon, Bach, and Beethoven for most of my students.
These persons' works contained the most important piano skills and music knowledge for students no matter they want to be professional or just play for fun.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Cooperated with a director and wrote film music, and played the piano part by myself.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I had a small toy piano when I was a 1-year-old child. I started to repeat the music I heard in TV ads since I got the toy and the music is all correct. So my parents bought me a piano and I started to learn it.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Two hours/day for non-professionals.

I am inquiring about piano lessons for my 8 year old son and possibly guitar lessons for my 7 year old son. I am looking for home instruction. Thanks!
Melissa
My husband is interested in taking piano lessons and I would like to inquire about rates. He owns a keyboard and would be open to either in home or studio lessons.
Vladimir
I would like to inquire about piano and possible voice lessons. I would prefer a lesson schedule that meets once per month, but for a longer duration than weekly lessons.
