    我女儿已经跟着Lena老师学了2年,老师有良好的性格,从来不会发脾气。 一个好的钢琴老师应该是一个颇具个人魅力的人、良好的性格、特有的艺术气质,能够针对不同学生的不同情况通过不同方式吸引、感染、带动学生。 好的钢琴老师,是你家儿子或女儿每星期要上课钢琴的那一天盼着要见的那个人。好的钢琴老师,是你家孩子弹了新曲子的时候,迫不及待的想分享的那个人。 一个好的老师还应该不仅仅只教授技巧,更教授为人之道, 好的钢琴老师,是让你孩子的文化境界更加提升的那个人。 Lena就是这样的老师也!❤ 我积极推荐。

    I purchased a gift certificate to gift piano lessons for my father. He had his first lesson with Lena today and asked that I write the review for him since he does not use the internet very much. He said: I really enjoyed my lesson with Lena today. She is a really patient, kind, and caring piano teacher. Her teaching style was very clear and easy to understand even though I do not have any past experience in music or playing instruments. She helped me learn the basic keys. I look forward to taking more lessons with her. I have already signed up for 4 additional lessons. Thanks, Matthew
