Violin Lessons in Costa Mesa, CA

Instruments: Piano Violin

I always make sure my students and their parents have realistic expectations when they start taking music lessons. For instance, violin is a difficult instrument to play and it can take months of practice to play a simple tune. However, it can be fun and enjoyable as long as it is understood that these simple accomplishments in playing the violin are in fact rather big ones. I request the parents of young (5-7 years old) students to be present during the lesson as often as possible. Read More

At the core, I believe everyone has a voice, and my job as a music teacher is to help someone realize his or her own voice. The violin is a hard instrument to master, and many people get discouraged when progress doesn't come faster.

I try to find out each student's "heart-music," and use the same basic method with whatever style he or she really wants to play. Read More

I started teaching part time while still in high school back in my native Malaysia and that is where my experience began.

I am an instructor who emphasizes student success, happiness, fulfillment and result. I understand that some students have different wants, needs and priorities when it comes to music education and I am ready to cater to all student types! Read More

My goal for lessons is not just progress. I would like to let students know how to enjoy music and the way music works. I have teaching experience in Korea and the U.S with kids age between 6 to 15. Young musicians have hard time to focus in a long period of time and practicing their own. To solve the issue I record videos for their assignments such as scales or any musical pieces they need to learn, so they can play along with them. Read More

I'm a very warm and optimistic person, so of course I would love to have all of my students shoot for the stars with their goals when it comes to the violin! Of course, that's not always the case and that is always fine too. Sometimes not everyone is riding the same wave. During our first lesson, we will discuss your goals. If you are advanced, that usually means you aren't playing the violin casually. Read More
