About Ying S.
I am a professional violist and violinist. I played violin for 13 years and playing the viola for 7 years. I graduated from East China Normal University, School of Art with a Bachelor of viola performance and have the Master Degree at the Boston Conservatory at Berklee of viola performance.
As an experienced viola and violin instructor, I have an extensive and diverse background in education in both China and the Unites States. I have taught Viola and Violin in a private setting for several years with students aged 7-20 and at experience levels from beginner to advanced. In Boston, I studied string pedagogy and taught a nine-year-old student weekly lessons for a half year with a focus on technique, stage presence, confidence, and musicality. At the conclusion of our lessons, his attitude had dramatically improved in a positive way and he successfully participated in a the recital at his primary school. While in China, I maintained a studio of six students. Under my guidance, all of them earned Chinese violin amateur grading certificates earned through performance and judging of scales, etudes, and solo repertoire. While teaching these students in China, I studied at East China Normal University, famous for their pedagogical approached to music education in China. In 2016, I won the first prize in the Concerto Competition at East China Normal University and performed a successful concert at the Shanghai Conservatory.
As I was growing up, I always loved sharing what I have learned with others and led me to build passion for teaching. By sharing what I learned with others, not only I can improve myself as a musician, but also inspires both myself and students to have deeper understandings in music; interactions with students bring diverse and unique ideas which have shaped my passion for teaching music. Also, I believe that being a teacher is not only for teaching a subject matter. Rather, it is about guiding students to form their own philosophy in their life. I have never imagined becoming a musician if it was not for the teachers and professors that led me in my life and helped me to become who I am now; therefore, I would like to share my own experience and give it back to the students to help them to pave their own life.
