About the lesson
I am an earnest and passionate pianist, whole-hearted in my playing and approach to the instrument. I have taught students of all ages, from beginners to diploma levels. Whilst providing students with plenty of ideas and knowledge, I always try to encourage my students to be independent and think for themselves, enhancing their ability to communicate through music. Aside from building and improving fundamental techniques, my personal forte and interest in music is the musical ideas and sound production.

About Yi Tong
I am a Malaysian-born chinese, classical pianist, graduated my bachelor's with a first-class honours at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama under tutelage of Graham Caskie. Recently, I was offered a scholarship to pursue my postgraduate studies at the Royal Northern College of Music, studying with Colin Stone.
During my studies, I have enjoyed performing both solo and in chamber groups in various venues such as Dora Stoutzker Hall in Cardiff, Newport Cathedral, Dewan Sri Penang in Malaysia etc. In November 2020, I was the prize winner of the Eric Hodges Memorial Prize in Cardiff, and have been selected to perform in the BPSE Intercollegiate Beethoven Competition.
Having participated in masterclasses with high profile pianists such as Peter Donohoe, Cédric Tiberghien, John Lill, and Llyr Williams, I was able to see music in different perspectives, which has influenced me in both performing and teaching.
I have taught students of all levels in both Malaysia and in the UK, and am able to offer lessons in both English and Mandarin (Chinese) if needed. My students have all succeeded in ABRSM exams in several different grades under my guidance.
