I won awards and prizes from The middle east, Europe and U.S.A. . I also won the best sound track in 48 hours film production as well as I am one of the top 10 at The international Horror Film scoring. I teach the secrets of the music, the magic of the music. I have so many ways to achieve the level that I want from my students. And the best way is to let my students play what they like to play on their instrument with more profession way. Also because the student love what they play, they will play it better for sure because they love it!

I have a BA in Music Education, and I've been teaching for 13 years (voice, piano, guitar, violin) in classroom and one-on-one settings. I've been complimented on my ability to teach in a way that makes my students learn very quickly. I was classically trained and I excelled in the pop and alternative rock scene. I've toured with choirs throughout China, and the United States (including Carnegie Hall), and I also toured with rock bands in Spain, Mexico, Peru, and throughout the U.S.A.

My two greatest passions are music and teaching, so teaching music comes very naturally to me. I am classically trained musician, having played violin for 18 years, viola for 10 years, piano for 8 years, guitar for 3 years and singing for as long as I can remember. I currently sing with the Los Angeles Master Chorale and other notable choirs in the Los Angeles area, while maintaining a humble studio of music students. In addition to experience as a performer of both opera and musical theater, I write and record my own music in a variety of genres (mainly blues/folk/soul). When I was 12 years old I was diagnosed with a nodule (a polyp of tissue on the vocal cords that prevents them from closing completely, caused by vocal strain) and have trained it away simply by learning to sing correctly. Having passed through this experience I am very aware of vocal health, and emphasize it with all my students.

I am fluent in Mandarin Chinese and English and can speak some Taiwanese, and enjoy teaching students of all ages. With over 10 years of teaching experience, I am able to tailor the speed, curriculum and style of each lesson to the individual. By default, I will teach music in the Suzuki Violin series, but am more than happy to arrange or find violin parts for songs you are interested in!

I like to make my classes fun, and am constantly thinking of new ways to engage young musicians. I help my students fall in love with the music using the Suzuki method - emphasizing constant immersion in music, regular performances, music theory, posture and artistic expression. Learning music is like learning a language; you must immerse yourself in it by listening to it daily and practicing. With younger children, I am very nurturing and adept at incorporating learning games to make performance fun. Music theory can be boring, so I tie in music theory as it relates to the pieces we are...

I began playing piano at the age of 5 and never stopped taking lessons until halfway through college. I entered into various competitions and festivals throughout myr young life and did pretty well. I began taking violin lessons at age 9 and continue to play violin as well as sing in a rock band called, The Denouement. My mom was an excellent music teacher and very successful choir director for almost 40 years so I have absorbed all kinds of musical wisdom from her. I have been playing music consistently for over 20 years and teaching music for over 2 years. I am extremely patient, encouraging and kind, but am also very particular when it comes to my students playing the best that they can play.

I am a Loyola Marymount University graduate with a B.A. in Music (Violin, Ethnomusicology). I am a firm believer in the therapeutic nature and healing power of music, and only teach it because of how it will change your life! I studied Alexander Technique with Karl Snyder and incorporate physical alignment into every lesson. I am a lover of all music, have performed various types of world and popular music, and teach my students what they love, so as to always keep the create juice flowing! As student and teacher, we will keep the vitality for the instrument when the beginning stages of the instrument can be discouraging. The violin is an impressive instrument with a huge history and design that has not changed in 500 years! Be a part of that beautiful history!

I grew up in Los Angeles and went on to attend the University of Redlands .While at University, I played in the University Orchestra and a variety of other ensembles. In addition to violin, I also studied jazz guitar, so classical music is definitely not the only musical style I am familiar with.

I am lucky enough to study with Jeanne Skrocki, who is currently the Concertmaster of the Redlands Symphony Orchestra and the Assistant Concertmaster of the Pacific Symphony.

My musical experience with violin is not confined to classical! I also have experience with other styles, including Irish folk music and bluegrass. While classical is my bread and butter, I can take a more rounded approach in terms of exposure to musical styles if desired.
