Instruments: Piano
I have used different piano books since I started teaching and find the methodology of Faber Piano Adventures suitable for students of different age groups and levels. Students can learn how to play songs in different varieties such as jazz, classical, rock, theme songs from Disney movies and well-known festival songs which they can sing along. Also, most of the repertoire has a duet section for me to play together with the student which makes the learning more fun and enjoyable. Read More

Shortly after graduating from college, I began teaching private lessons part time in students' homes, and have taught continuously for 20 years. Within this period, I also taught both private piano to children and adults and group piano for pre-schoolers at Chicago's renowned Old Town School of Folk Music for 4 years. I am passionate about teaching, enjoy watching my students progress and am thrilled to see their enthusiasm for music grow. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Music
I began playing the piano when I was 5 and started with the Suzuki method on violin when I was 7. I went to a performing arts high school where I played in orchestras, chamber ensembles, and had theory classes half the day, and regular classes the other half. I also took lessons from Frank Huang, the current concertmaster of the New York Philharmonic. I received my BM from the University of Texas at Austin in 2017 where I studied with Sandy Yamamoto, and I received my MM from DePaul University in 2019 studying with Janet Sung. Read More

As an educator it is my goal for students to be able to communicate through the language of music. Whether the student is a beginner or advanced, the first thing they will be taught is to listen and respond. Ive always believed that the best way to learn music is as if you are learning a foreign language. When learning a language, one is given a small amount of vocabulary, they learn what it means, and practice using it in conversations. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I am flexible and I adapt my method to the student. I like to start students out with learning scales right away. If you can learn the scales, it makes learning new songs so much easier. Plus, they are great excercise for building agility. I also like to use a book called "A Dozen a Day" which includes more excercies for building agility and helping students master more difficult levels of music. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin
I am a teacher by vocation, because my work brings me satisfaction. I love my profession and treat it as a creative process. Yes, this is my creative process and each student is the material through which I create my masterpiece. I invest completely in my student with my knowledge, experience, love, attention and responsibility. I began my teaching career in 1994, working at the conservatory with students. Although it was not easy to start right away with adult students, I understood back then that this was my calling. Read More
Instruments: Piano Cello Music
I am an avid believer that a student's personal enthusiasm for learning and improving is the sole catalyst for their development. I do not believe in enforcing practice regiments on students as the motivation to practice should come from within. That being said, it is my job as the teacher to foster the student's passion for music by introducing them to exciting concepts and pieces that can grow their passion. Read More

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
I am really the only one of my siblings that stuck with music. One of my brother started piano when he was younger, but was not interested like I was. My other brother played violin and piano and he even wrote some music too.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
When I was seven I wanted to play the piano because my brother was taking lessons. My brother stopped after a while, but I continued for several years performing for school recitals and church. Along with music classes I developed a love and talent for music. During junior high, there were many teachers leaving. Because there were other extracurricular activities I was involved in, I stopped playing the piano in high school. After graduating high school was when I decided to become a professional musician. I didn't really remember being good at or wanting to do anything else in school other than playing piano.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
Piano is my primary instrument that I play and want to teach. In college I decided to try a group guitar class because I wanted to learn to play more instruments. My mom had an old guitar that I could use. Being with many other students and not getting enough individual help in the class, I didn't pick it up as easily as I did piano. I also take voice lessons along with piano. If I had to pick another instrument to play now, I would want to learn violin inspired by the violinist Lindsey Stirling.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
If I weren't a musician I do not know what I would want to do. That was what I was struggling with when senior year of high school and after I graduated. I was taking general education courses for a few years before taking piano and voice lesson and decided on a music career.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
This is a difficult question because I do not really prefer on style/genre over the other. I love to play the various style and genres of music because it diversifies the repertoire. I do enjoy playing some popular songs or movie/tv themes. I definitely have a newfound appreciation for classical when I started college. I did not really like classical music growing up because I thought it was all boring and sounded the same. I have not really played a lot of jazz music so that would be an interesting genre of music to start playing.
