Instruments: Piano
The structure of each lesson is always tailored to the student, but typically involves working hands-on with material, charting progress week to week, and refining the way that the student applies his or her focus while practicing passages. I often like to emphasize the use of expressive dynamics, rhythmic coordination between the two hands, and melodic phrasing. Given the open-ended nature of the musical experience, I hope to impart valuable insights into these technical aspects of performance and practice while also providing general guidance in accordance with the student's personal vision.

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet
For young beginners on wind instruments, I really focus on getting a good sound out of the instrument first. Then, I have them learn simple songs by ear to strengthen their relationship with the instrument. At the same time, I will teach them how to read music if necessary. I like to use the Rubank or the Sound Innovations band method books to start with. For my piano students, I go over posture and hand position first, in addition to the basics of the keyboard and fingerings for scales. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Music
Aside from being an active opera singer and performer I have had the privilege of being a teacher since I was 17 years old. I started teaching private voice students, choir classes, piano and Music theory. I enjoy helping my students explore all music genres including classical, folk, pop, jazz, rock and RB. I believe that music is capable of changing lives, teaches discipline, and gives light to the life of any person that experiences it. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I try to relax the student first with body relaxation and breathing methods. We then do warm up vocal exercises to build the voice and then work on songs. I play the accompaniments on piano for them and they can record all of the lesson. I also do vocal coaching and incorporate acting methods. Piano students need to learn how to play basic songs first but then we can start to incorporate songs or other music they like into their lessons. Read More

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
I came from a big family with love for music. As the youngest of 8 children by my parents, I grew up listening to my older sisters and brothers singing the world famous classical songs and folk songs after dinner every evening. Music was a large part of my family and I became a part of my family's musical events. But in reality, I was not encouraged to be a professional singer by my practical family members. As a good hobby, to enjoy singing but not as a tool of life. I had to work hard and persistent to pursue my dreams to be in music and at last, I won the battle to become a completely independent professional performer in opera and concerts as well as a music educator.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
As I already made a statement earlier, my strong desire and decision forced me to win the tough battle in my early age to become a professional musician. When I was in my missionary junior high school, I was strongly impressed by an American preacher's sermon with his singing "How great thou art!" with a guitar at the special Service in Ewha Girls H.S. in Seoul, Korea. I realized that I have a small talent from God and I wanted to use it to the fullest in spite of my family's pressure for my future as a medical doctor in my secure life. Hard work by my persistent nature with my strong desire, I have been accomplishing my goals and plans so far and I still have more room to fill now. My family members are so proud of me for my achievement with my right choice in music.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I have been performing the title role of Madama Butterfly by Puccini, as a typecast in the early age with the major regional opera companies in the U.S.A. and in Korea over a few decades. I have been nurtured by this demanding role, musically, vocally, dramatically and emotionally to become a true and honest artist. Learning more on the stage than in the voice studio! Currently, I am not limited to this typecast role at all. So many exciting and beautiful roles in Puccini, Verdi, Mozart, etc. Luckily, I have performed major roles in I Pagliacci, Un Ballo Maschera and a few contemporary operas.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
To keep practicing daily basis and persistently during my busy activities in performing cultural events and private lessons.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
For the beginners, I use the Italian Twenty Century Song Book as a Bel Canto vocal techniques.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
It depends on the individual matter and for me to practice for an hour on a daily basis with a regular physical exercise (Yoga, Pilates, Zumba, Water Aerobics and sound sleep)
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
In reality, I had to have degrees in music to represent myself as an accomplished musician and to be a voice teacher. I had a great love for music by nature and strong desire with an ambition to devote myself to music as a professional performer and a music educator to cultivate the hidden potentials in every single student.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Piano
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Piano
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Yes, One of the professional opera singers won the competitions and grants from Sullivan Music Foundation and won the vocal competitions in New York as well as performing in operas in New York area, Europe, and Ukraine. And many other students are active in teaching children and performing for their communities and churches.
