About

I believe that a solid foundation is essential for success in music learning. My approach to teaching puts emphasis on building strong technique, understanding music theory, and developing sight reading skills. Lessons are structured to cultivate a sense of routine, encouraging students to establish effective practice habits both in lessons and at home.

Each lesson typically consists of three components: scales, etudes, and repertoire. These elements are complemented by engaging musical games and interactive theory exercises that reinforce concepts in a fun and accessible way. My goal is to foster a balanced and well-rounded musical education that inspires students to grow as musicians.

My son loved learning from Chialing! He was nervous to begin piano lessons, but immediately fell in love with music and looked forward to every lesson. Chialing was patient, kind, and enthusiastic. I would absolutely recommend Chialing!

My daughter has been studying with Chialing for the past 3 years. She switched from IU String Academy to taking private lessons with Chialing, and were very happy with the switch. My daughter has advanced so much in the past 3 years and she loves her cello and her cello teacher.

Out of all the instructors I’ve had (instructors with PhDs and over twenty years of experience teaching cello), Chialing is the best by far. I’ve been taking cello lessons with her for a little over a year and a half and I know that aside from her general likability, she is very diligent and detail-oriented—characteristics essential to fixing technique problems sometimes rooted in even the slightest improper finger placement. Furthermore, she quickly re-explains concepts in new ways until I understand them both conceptually and physically. She also goes out of her way to find drills tailored toward keeping current skills sharp and improving weak skills. She will work with you to ensure you keep improving and stay interested in the piece and drills you’re working on. She won’t disappoint.

Frequently asked questions

What is your typical process for working with a new student?

I start with a consultation on how much musical knowledge the student has. I then determine what kind of music book you need. Sometimes I come up with my own musical exercise tailered to your need. If you don't read music or need assistance, we can also include that in the lesson. If you are a parent, I strongly encourage you to participate in the lessons as well!

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

I went to Manhattan School of Music Precollege and Indiana Univeristy.

What types of students have you worked with?

As young as 3 years old to adults.
