Whether you are just starting the music journey, or looking to continue learning from home, I am here to make piano lessons educational, engaging, and enjoyable. I take a collaborative, student-centered approach to lessons. I excel in customizing lessons to students’ goals and interests. In the lessons, I will teach not only performance techniques, but also music theory, sight-reading, ear-training, and composition if necessary. A broad array of musical experiences helps you to improve your musical skills significantly. I teach from 4 years old to college students and more! I am proficient in teaching those who take exams. My students have received excellent marks in Certificate of Merit, ABRSM, RCM and AP music theory exams. Typical lesson includes technique, etude, two or three repertoire songs, and music theory. Depending on students' interests, I'll add composition, improvisation, sight-reading and ear training. I am looking forward to the opportunity to teach new students and to help each student acquire their musical goals.

Perfect! We had our first session so far. She is on time, educated, professional and patient with my baby.
- I had the best student ever in the age group. Student's attention span was amazing for her age. She learned keyboard fundamentals including finger numbers, 2 black keys, and note C.MAY's response :
