Styles｜Pop Rock, Jazz, FunkCourse Focus｜The course starts with basic rhythm and rudiment training, establishing correct playing concepts and a stable foundation. Through practicing songs and various musical styles, students will develop practical skills and a natural sense of rhythm. ▌About Me I'm Ting-Chieh (TJ), a drum instructor who emphasizes fundamentals and musical understanding. Learning drums isn't just about playing rhythms; it's about knowing what you're practicing and why, making every practice meaningful. In teaching, I prioritize establishing correct concepts and basic techniques, because skills can improve gradually, but learning incorrectly from the start will be harder to correct later.

I'm Chen-Wei Pan, a saxophonist and educator whose work is centered on jazz with pop as an extension. I excel at freely switching between melody and rhythm on the saxophone and have participated in various live performances and collaborations with different ensembles.To me, the saxophone is not just about accumulating techniques and scales, but an instrument that can "speak." I love to explore how melodies breathe, how rhythms propel music forward, and I'm skilled at transforming seemingly complex jazz concepts into an understanding that students can immediately apply to their playing. Whether you're picking up the saxophone for the first time or have been playing for a while and feel stuck, I hope to help you play with a steadier and more directed sound, gradually finding your own tone and voice. ▌Musical Background Education Master of Music, National Dong Hwa University - Jazz Program Majored in saxophone, specializing in jazz and pop music performance.
