Style｜Classical Music Course Positioning｜Build solid technique and musicality, from beginner to performance level, fostering stage confidence and aesthetic appreciation for music. ▌About Me I started learning piano at age 7, and music has accompanied me throughout my growth. During my piano journey, I not only pursued technical improvement but also deeply understood the frustrations and expectations students face when learning—because I’ve been through those stages myself. I am currently studying at the National Taiwan Normal University, Department of Music (Piano Major), under the tutelage of Professor Lin Wei-Chi. In the past, I participated in numerous domestic and international competitions, including champion of the 2025 Hong Kong Youth Artist Competition Piano Open Category, second place in the Asia Pacific Cup, and top three in several other international music competitions. I believe that performers not only need excellent technique but also need to be able to hear themselves. Therefore, in class, I guide students to find their own voice in music. My class pace is flexible. Whether you are a beginner, an adult restarting piano lessons, or aiming higher and preparing for exams or competitions, I will patiently and clearly guide you to progress. For me, piano is not just a skill; it's also a way to converse with oneself. ▌Musical Background Education Aletheia University, Department of Music National Taiwan Normal University, Graduate Institute of Music Mentorship Lin Wei-Chi Received masterclass instruction from professors such as Fan-Jiang Yi and Chung Hsiao-Ching ▌Demonstration Videos ▌Performance Experience (Selected) 2025 Hong Kong Youth Artist Competition – Piano Open Category Champion 2025 Asia Pacific Talent Art Festival Competition – Second Place 2025 Hong Kong International Youth Performing Arts Festival Grand Final Performance Level Group – Fourth Place 2024 INTERNATIONAL EUROPEAN MUSIC COMPETITION – Third Prize 2024 International Classical and Traditional Music Awards, Piano Category – Excellence Award 2024 Asia Pacific Cup Music Competition (College Group) – Second Place 2021 Taipei Culture Cup Music Competition (College Group) – Second Place 2022 Lejie International Piano Art Festival Open Masterclass Instruction and Performance ▌Class Style In class, I flexibly tailor course content, adjusting materials and practice pace according to each student's status, allowing you to grow at the most comfortable and effective pace.
