    About Lella L.

    4.5
    (25)
    I studied Musicology and Piano Performance at the Shandong Normal University School of Music, where I graduated with my BA in 2005. I taught music and established a band at a property management institute while a student there, and established my own practice after I graduated. I came to the United States in 2013, where I have continued to play piano and have joined a local band. I am happy to continue sharing my love of music with my students here. I began tutoring Mandarin in January 2015. As a native speaker, I can guide you to a very high level, and help you learn to speak with a proper Chinese accent. Please note: Online classes are available for Mandarin Chinese only. Piano lessons are only available in person.

    Loved every piano lesson. Have been learning with Lella every week for about 9 months now and seen significant improvement. I am able to play the classics that I love! Can't wait for more.
