Miss Rachel believes each music student has their own unique qualities, strengths, weaknesses, characters, short term and long term goals, as well as expectations. She conducts her lessons with a tailor-made approach in meeting each individual condition. This approach has been applicable to her students at the ages from 4 to 60, who range from beginners to RCM grade 10 (at ABRSM grade 8).

Every student likes encouragement and motivation at learning, not suppressed. Many music learners do not have a chance to learn the instrument joyfully. Some are unable to play music they like, and unwillingly to achieve a high goal. What is the approach of Miss Rachel? It’s ARCS.

– Academic achievement is a main concern and indispensable to many students. The level of music knowledge, performance techniques and enjoyment from lessons are interdependent to students’ accomplishment.

– Recitals organized by Miss Rachel yearly provide a formal performance opportunity in building up students’ confidence and sense of achievement. Music loses its mission without an audience.

– Competitions and festivals are good opportunities to enable students to understand their standard in comparison to other piano learners. Some of Miss Rachel’s students obtained impressive results over the years.

– Systematic approach of piano pedagogy was developed by Miss Rachel for beginners, intermediate and advanced level students. It covers score reading, ear training, sight reading, music appreciation, music analysis, musicianship and interpretation.

We hope that all music learners could enjoy and blossom along the music learning process genuinely. It is a lifelong gift.

“Music is a more potent instrument than any other for education because rhythm and harmony find their way into the inward places of the soul.” Plato.
