More about me:
Born in 1998, Virginia started learning violin at the age of 3, under the tutelage of under Ms Beedarn Chao and Ms Rosa Lam. In 2013, she attained DipABRSM in violin performance and Grade 8 piano one year later. In 2018, Virginia graduated from King’s College London with a Bachelor of Music (First Class Honours), under the sponsorship of the “King’s Hong Kong Scholarships” At KCL, she studied violin with tutors from the Royal Academy of Music - Mr. Nicolas Dupont and Ms Georgia Hannant. She also studied composition with Professor Silvina Milstein, Robert Keeley and Dr. Edward Nesbit. Her works have been performed by UK professional musicians and ensembles such as Clare McCaldin and Lontano Ensemble.

Since university, Virginia has been actively teaching primary to form 6 students at King’s St George’s Music Academy (London) and Sevenoaks School, one of the top 5 UK boarding schools. Aiming to branch out in the field of music, Virginia has took up various arts administration and marketing positions in leading ensembles such as the English Music Festival, London City Philharmonic and more since 2016.

I am a music educator. From Hong Kong. I can play piano, violin and cello. I play cello in an orchestra and also a piano accompanist. I am a jury in Music Competition in Hong Kong and gains numbers of " Best Teacher Award" . I speak Cantonese, Mandarin and English. I specialize in tutoring beginners. However, I love teaching seniors and advanced players. I have been tutoring for 20 years to the age from 3 to 80. It has been a great time to discuss music with all level of students. Students not only learn technical skills, they will also learn music history, theory, and performance skills. Most of my students took part in competitions and in orchestras.

I hold a Master of Music degree in piano performance (with merit) at Goldsmiths, University of London and have taught piano and music theory to students in Hong Kong, Beijing, Zhejiang and London for over fifteen years.

I welcome students from beginner to advanced level and am equally happy to help my students pass music exams or just learn to play piano for their own enjoyment.

When teaching kids and beginners, I strictly follow the traditional conservatory method of training the postures, fingers and muscles properly from the very beginning of the learning process. And for kids, I highly recommend that parent(s) can help monitor their practice at home.

For adult students, the most important thing is to analyse your performance, to find the problems that prevent you from playing better, face them and fix them. I provide creative solutions according to your conditions. I helped a senior student (60+ years old) to pass ABRSM Grade 8 with merit, a 20-year-old student to play keyboard and sing in his band after 10 lessons, and a high school student to get music scholarship in UK.

I believe in the power of encouragement and motivation. And always remember, practice makes perfect.

I teach in Mid-Levels West, Hong Kong.

I teach through English, Mandarin and Cantonese.

I've been teaching piano for over 10 years and my students are from 3 to 70 years old.
They finished examinations and competitions with good scores & result.
If you are passionate about playing piano but dont know where to start. Here I AM.

Christine is a Korean citizen who grew up internationally. She studied Piano Performance at University of Northwestern, U.S.A, as an undergraduate and earned her Master of Music Education from Boston University. She has been teaching private lessons and been a full-time music teacher for eight years in South Korea, Singapore, and Hong Kong.

Her expertise is in beginner and intermediate piano pedagogy. She has successfully implemented both U.S and UK music education systems and is familiar with various music examination schools such as ABRSM and Suzuki.

She is fluent in both English and Korean.

The lesson details can be arranged flexibly upon discussions and agreement.

Looking forward to hear from you!

*I teach in Cantonese and Putonghua too!

I am 19 years old and I have a diploma in ATCL (distinction) from Trinity College. I had child teaching experience before. I know how hard it is to practise piano but the satisfaction and fun are priceless.

You will learn to embrace music and find yourself a friend of your piano. Music gives people motivation in life and happiness. Just practise and persist on it and you will be successful!!

About the teacher:
First, Professional. Holding a Master in Music post-graduate degree, the teacher has been teaching piano lessons professionally for 17 years. She has a solid theoretical foundation in music teaching, composition, and piano performance.
Second, a kind attitude with patience, as well as a proper method for different levels of students. She has taught students who easily pass ABRSM grade 8. She also possesses excellent patience with young kids under the age of six. During the last ten years, her goal has been to solve an important issue: how to make students interested in piano playing. Most kids who learn the piano would give up before or during their teenage time. However, 99% of them regret it when they grow up. In Christina's lesson, she will acknowledge to the students and parents clearly what difficulties they will face during the process of music learning.
It's more important that students learn to develop a good habit, a worthwhile hobby, and the perseverance that will benefit their whole life.

About the class:
Different students may require different class lengths.
For a child under the age of six, the teacher recommends less time for each class but a higher frequency. Kids who took the piano class twice a week and half an hour each class usually progress faster than those who took it once a week. For kids who practice longer time, it is also advised to take the course longer time. A child who practices two hours a day could play Beethoven's Fur Elise within one year, but for a child who practices less than half an hour per day, this goal may take more than four years to reach.
For adults who have greater self-control, it is advised to take the class for a longer time per class but with less frequency.

Students will play on digital , upright and grand pianos to feel the differences as you progress from beginner to advance level. Tailor made piano learning games for beginners.

Over 20 years teaching experience with Bachelor of Music major in Piano Performance, been piano group class tutor for international schools since 2013. Help students get into university music degree and achieve distinction in public performances and competitions.

My lessons are mostly in English, but of course I can teach in Cantonese and Mandarin Chinese too. As a private singing teacher, all my students have won local and international competitions, and obtained excellent results in their exams. Some of them even decided to choose music and opera as their future careers. Although I am based in the UK at the moment, I still would love to help students who like to learn opera and classical singing in Hong Kong. Do not worry, I am experienced in giving online classes and you will not feel distant from me. You will enjoy my classes.

- makes them aware of their values and proud of themselves.
I want to be my students' friend and teach them with a humble and empathetic heart. My students like sharing their stories and ideas with me outside the lessons, sometimes about books, sometimes about philosophy, sometimes about the world, sometimes about the industry, sometimes about anything in life. I always make time for my students.

Besides singing, I have been a pianist and piano teacher for 13 years. I was usually the accompanist for my students in their competitions and exams. I am based in the UK at the moment, but I will arrange good accompanists for my students. If I can fly back to Hong Kong when my students take their exams and perform in their competitions, I will accompany them by myself.
