How many times have you heard of a young student playing piano at a very high level? Certainly there are musical prodigies since they have existed all throughout history. But many young students who play at a high level reached there through pushing and skipping. At MUSE Piano & Academics, I teach all aspects of piano. This does not mean I hold students back. But the goal is not to get to a high level quickly or to just get a good mark on an exam. If there is something important to learn, like the sol-fa system, then students must learn it. If students are struggling with a skill, they will get more practice on it. I also cater to students' needs. If they learn better by ear, I teach more often by ear. However, I try to incorporate other important elements as well... gradually. As parents and educators, we want students to enjoy learning piano. Parents and guardians are more than welcome to give their input on lessons.

I believe in teaching sight reading, technique, ear training, composition, theory, and performance. I believe in motivation rather than mindless pushing, thus I use a reward system.
