Teaching Philosophy
I believe that each student is unique and there is no single style of teaching that fits all individuals. When teaching, I aim to guide students towards a solution rather than simply present an answer. I encourage students to listen to professional recordings, recitals, and performances so that they could learn from these music and think about how they could build their own music style. I have many experiences to teach kids and adults, and share the passion and love of music teaching to them.
Musical Education
I have attended the following schools earning the following degrees: - University of Victoria- Master of Music - University of Victoria - Bachelor of Music - Shanghai Normal University - Bachelor of Arts My principal teachers included Suzanne Snizek and Qi Wang.

Our Promise to You
Getting Started Together
We don't offer free trials, but we do something better - a relaxed 2-lesson getting-to-know-you period. You can pause anytime with just 24 hours notice. After your third lesson, we ask for a friendly 2-lesson heads up if you need to stop.
Life Happens - We Get It
Give us 24 hours notice for any cancellation or reschedule and you'll receive full credit. Planning a family vacation or summer break? Perfect - just let us know a day ahead and we'll pause your lessons.
When You're Under the Weather
If illness strikes with short notice (less than 24 hours), you'll still be charged since your teacher has reserved that time. However, most teachers are happy to offer makeup lessons when possible - they have the final say, especially if last-minute cancellations become a pattern.
Stopping Lessons
Need to take a break? We just ask for a 2-lesson notice:
Weekly lessons = 2 weeks notice
Every other week = 3 weeks notice
Twice weekly = 1 week notice
Summer breaks are different - no notice period needed when you return in the fall!
