Style｜Classical, PopCourse Focus｜From basic vocalization to musical expression, establish stable performance ability and musical confidence, allowing the flute to become a voice that accompanies growth and self-expression. ▌About Me Hello! I'm Teacher Ziyun~ I started playing the flute at age 7. From school orchestra performances and music competitions as a student to receiving full professional music training, I have always believed that music is not just about technique, but a way to accompany one's growth and self-discovery. Through my learning and performance journey, I have accumulated extensive stage and teaching experience, which has helped me understand that every student has a different learning pace. Whether it's a child just starting with the flute, an adult looking to cultivate a hobby, or a student preparing for music classes and competitions, I hope to guide them with a warm and clear approach, allowing students to enjoy music while also building stable abilities and confidence. ▌Musical Background Education National Dong Hwa University, Department of Music University of Taipei, Graduate Institute of Music In addition to professional performance training, I also completed the elementary school teacher education program and passed the teacher qualification examination. Combining my performance and educational background, I emphasize students' understanding, habit formation, and long-term growth. ▌Performance and Teaching Experience (Highlights) 2025 AFF Asia Flute Federation Annual Conference Closing Performance 2024 Dong Hwa New Sound - Concerto Winners' Concert (performing with orchestra) 2024 Dong Hwa University Wind Orchestra Spring Performance - Invited to Penghu for exchange 2023 Dong Hwa Spring Arts Festival "Teacher Jiang - Musicians have no food?

My rhythm is poor, can I still learn to play the drums? Absolutely! Because learning drums isn't about proving your good rhythm from the start; it's about learning how to consistently produce sounds.   One of the easiest things for beginners to overlook is the drumstick's fulcrum. When beginners first pick up drumsticks, they usually grip them very tightly. They're afraid of dropping them, hitting off-center, or losing control. But drumsticks aren't controlled by a death grip. When they hit the drumhead or practice pad, they naturally rebound. What you need to learn isn't to pull the drumstick back with your hand every time, but to find a position where the drumstick can rebound naturally and then be controlled by your fingers. This position is the fulcrum.   If the fulcrum is incorrect, several common problems will arise: First, inconsistent volume (loud then soft). Second, hands tire quickly. Third, rhythm becomes chaotic at higher speeds. Fourth, prolonged playing leads to tightness in the wrists and forearms.   So, when beginners learn drums, they shouldn't just ask, "How do I play this rhythm?" They should also first ask, "Am I currently making the drumstick rebound correctly?"   A simple way to check is to play single strokes on a practice pad. After hitting, observe if the drumstick rebounds on its own. If you have to force it back up every time, it usually means your grip is too tight or you haven't found the fulcrum. If the drumstick rebounds completely out of control, it means your finger wrapping and directional control are insufficient. This is why it's so important for a teacher to observe your movements in person. Because the fulcrum cannot be fully learned just by looking at a diagram. Everyone's hand shape, drumstick weight, and level of relaxation are different. The teacher needs to see your actual movements to help you adjust to a more natural position.   Rhythm is not a prerequisite for learning drums. Rhythm is gradually built through correct technique, consistent practice, and listening. If you want to learn drums but feel you lack rhythm, you can start with grip, rebound, and basic beats; there's no need to master complex rhythms from the outset.

Many people who want to learn pop piano often ask: Do I have to understand sheet music before I can start playing songs? The answer is, not necessarily. If your goal is to play pop songs, accompaniment, or sing and play, chords will be introduced earlier in your learning than sheet music. However, beginners often find chords like C, F, G, and Am to look like a bunch of English codes. Actually, chords aren't about memorizing every hand shape; there's a very simple logic behind them called 1-3-5. Taking C major as an example, the scale is C D E F G A B. Counting from C, the 1st note is C, the 3rd note is E, and the 5th note is G. So, the C chord is C E G. This is the most basic concept of a triad.   You might ask: Does knowing this really help? Yes, and very directly. Because once you know that chords are built from 1, 3, and 5, you won't just be memorizing "the C chord looks like this" or "the F chord looks like that." You'll start to understand why these notes can appear together, why some chords sound stable, why some sound darker, and why some chords feel like they want to move to the next place. For beginners, the most practical way to practice is not to memorize many chords at once, but to first get comfortable playing common chords like C, F, G, and Am. When you play each chord, first state its constituent notes: C is C E G F is F A C G is G B D Am is A C E It will feel slow at first, but this slowness is worth it. Because you're not just training your fingers; you're building the ability to understand songs. When you later see a chord chart for a pop song, you won't feel like you have to look up every symbol from scratch. You'll quickly understand that your left hand can play the root note and your right hand can play the chord. You'll also gradually understand why teachers teach inversions, broken chords, and accompaniment patterns. What beginners truly need to avoid is treating chords as a bunch of shapes to memorize from the start. While this might allow you to play a few songs in the short term, you'll easily get stuck when you change keys, songs, or accompaniment styles. If you want to learn pop piano, 1-3-5 is a great starting point. It's not difficult, but it will take you from "just pressing keys" to "knowing what you're playing."
