Instruments: Piano Voice
My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching private lessons part-time many years ago while learning piano at University and working in children's creative center. I began to teach students in my home studio. Working in Musical theater, I gained more experience teaching piano and voice, accompaniment to ballet classes and theatrical plays. My students participate in awards and honor recitals throughout the year. I have taught piano and voice lessons for over 25 years. Read More

Teaching is a step by step process and it takes time, effort and patience. I like to break things down into easily attainable steps and then build from there. This builds confidence and creates a sense of accomplishment. I was taught by Russian, Hungarian, and American teachers. I received a very traditional type of classical training which I do follow and teach. But I also play duets with most of my students. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
In the voice studio I am a kind and nurturing teacher - no matter the age or level of the singer. Above all, I strive to instruct healthy, beautiful singing. I absolutely believe in choosing music for a student that will help improve specific areas of vocal technique, but also music about which the student feels passionate. Singing should feel like a release and it should be rewarding. I remember looking forward to voice lessons and getting so excited to watch my voice grow and get better. Read More

It is important that each student progress at his or her own pace. Encouragement is given by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps engage a students desire to progress and make students eager to learn more. By exploring what inspires the student, I can tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. An example is using the Faber and Faber book PlayTime Piano Rock'n'Roll and learningRock Around the Clock or Rockin'Robin and PlayTime Piano Classics such as Lullaby by Brahms or Country Dance by Beethoven.

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
When we sing, there are many muscles are working together. However, the problem is that the muscles are not shown by our eyes because those are in our bodies. Furthermore, the muscles are totally different depending on people. So, knowing their own instrument (body and voice) is the hardest thing. Second, the voice is in our body. So, the voice can be changed according to their condition. To maintain steady voice, I think singers need to practice a lots. I think repeated practice is only way to remember their voice perfectly.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
When I had a private lesson at Texas, my student awarded second place for a vocal competition. When I started to teach him he has a bad habit for signing while he has a great voice. So, I tried to fix his bad habit. His bad habit was stuffy sound which causes artificial voice. For this reason, he tended to push his voice a lot. To fix this problem, I made an effort to let him know his natural voice. Of course, he felt it was really weird and stranger. After fixing this bad habit, he was able to improve his voice quickly. When he found his voice and sing with natural voice he won the competition.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Ironically, my goal was being a math teacher because I was really good at math and science. However, my goal was changed when I was high school student. My parents are strong christians. So, I naturally went to church with my parents. In the church, I liked to play a guitar and a drum. I was able to sing in church choir many times. Through the experience, I recognized that I like to sing a lots and my voice is different from others. Also, the choir conductor encouraged me to study voice many times. With his courage, I could decide to study voice.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Music field is really competitive. I have worked at Opera North last summer for two months. When I got young artist program at Opera North, I was really honored because it was really competitive to get it. There were over 600 applicants who applied that program. However, only 16 singers could join the program. Through the program, I could improve my musicality and had good opportunity to sing on the stage. Second, I often sing at church offering or special service. After singing, when people told me your singing made me touched and comfort I feel really happy and proud of me.
