I take one lesson at a time while careful to scaffold the information. I want students to improve, but I also want them to know what it is that they must do in order to become a competent musician. I can be tough, but at the same time, I don't mind changing directions and moving from say, ear training to sight reading or some other approach. At the base, I believe that rhythm is the most important concern for a student. Read More

Haeyoon's lesson style is adhered to each students' needs, not following just one single formula for all. She recognizes the needs that each individual may have and works with each student and, if needed, their parents, to provide the best experience and enhancement in learning as possible. She incorporates all aspects of music (performance, melodic and harmonic importance, rhythm, etc.) to provide a complete musical education while making the lessons enjoyable and understandable.

I'm a fun loving musician who enjoys sharing my passion for music with my students. I graduated from the College of Wooster with a Bachelor of Music degree in Vocal Performance and then Florida State University with a Masters of Music in Choral Conducting. Music has opened many doors both professionally and personally. I have had the opportunity to tour up and down the east coast while performing with 16 voice professional choir and met my wife through a choir we both were singing in. Read More

Each student gets a chance to listen, write, read, and play music at every lesson. The emphases of lesson materials will depend on the student's goals, but each element of music is important in its own right. It is also crucial to listen to other genres and styles that may be out of the scope of the lesson. Music is a complex and wonderful creation, and there have been many contributions to it over many years. Read More

I have been a professional teacher and performer for ten years, touring nationally with funk, soul, and latin bands. The diversity of my experience as a performer has directly impacted my view on teaching. Excitement about practicing music comes directly from passion for music in general, and a key philosophy to my teaching method is to not only instill correct practices and technique, but to attempt to foster a life-long desire for musical exploration in my students.

As a teacher, I will also be a coach to encourage the student to learn rudimentary and theory basics. These will be foundational for development as the student matures. Tactically, lessons will consist of playing for understanding. I look forward to a student questions as it is key for the overall learning process. In some cases, I will have to do some homework for the student! I believe this combination of style and method provides a strong format to give the student a satisfying and confident background a music career as a soloist or to jump in on jam sessions and perform with others.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practice does not make perfect, practice makes permanent. If you practice lazily, you will perform lazily. Practicing kind of has to be like giving yourself a mini-lesson. You need to be ready to look into a mirror for your vowel shape and catch yourself doing things that create bad habits. Practice does not have to be long. Even if you just practice 10 minutes a week, if that 10 minutes is used effectively and not lazily, it makes a difference. Take notes at your lessons, take them home, and see for yourself how your teacher’s advice really does help.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
I would say most children are ready between 1st and 3rd grade. This is prime dendrite growing time in children’s brains. You will know if they are constantly singing, if the show an affinity for performance, if they have the constant desire to “dink” around with piano keys, but most importantly... if they ask! Most children will let you know when they want to try new things, especially little ones. Music is so important for kids when it comes to other school subjects like math, reading, and writing. Take advantage of it!
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
The teachers that inspire me are still very prevalent in my life. I am actually very fortunate to have grown up with them. My mother has a successful piano studio of 60 students and a large wait list. The love that she has for music and teaching has been instilled in me, and she has taught me so much of what I have learned. My grandmother is a voice and piano teacher. She no longer maintain's a large studio in her retirement, but in her hay day she had a successful studio and a musical group that toured the west coast for many years. My whole family is extremely musical.
Outside of my family, my biggest motivation comes from a teacher who I shall leave unnamed. She showed me an example of what not to be as a teacher. I have never been so close to hating music as I was with her, and I am fortunate that I was able to come out of this experience with a goal, rather than a chip on my shoulder. I want to be an encouraging teacher. I will n ever settle for less than I think a student can do, but I will also never be the one to beat them down. Lessons need to be constructive and positive.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
My dream performance include Chopin’s Nocturne in Bb because of the intricate harmonies, rhythm elements, and style the piece shows. This piano solo is full of raw emotion, and I have worked very hard on it, without a place to perform it.
The other dream piece of mine is Die Erlkonig by Schumann. This rolling piece contains vocal techniques that I have mastered and am very proud of. The range shows three distinct characters that would extremely fun to act out, the accompaniment is exciting and fun the entire time, and I love to shownoff my German language skills.
