Ms. Chen is not just a piano teacher but a mentor who shares not only musical knowledge but also a deep passion for the piano and music as a whole. I am so grateful for her being so patient and adapting to my sons needs. Always encouraging and fostering a sense of accomplishment with each lesson.

Highly recommend!

Ive taken both guitar and piano lessons in the past, working with multiple instructors. Without a doubt, Yezi is the best teacher Ive ever had.

When I encounter challenges, Yezi can quickly offer various solutions to help me overcome the current issue Im facing. Shes dedicated to improving my technique and ensuring that I learn the piano without skipping any steps.

In just over a year of lessons with Yezi, I am amazed by my progress. Her guidance and motivation have been key factors in my continued improvement.

I highly recommend Yezi to anyone, whether youre starting your piano journey, looking to refine your technique, or anywhere in between.

I enjoy my lessons with yezi so much!!! She is a such nice and patient teacher with very logical teaching skills! First, she has a good taste in the sounds of pieces from different periods and styles. I learned that how to adjust my hand, wrist and arm to create the sound I want. Second, she always comes up with effective practicing methods to resolve my problems. That made me not feel confused during practice. And did help me improve a lot![Useless practicing is nightmare for students:(

Most of all, she’s the kind of teacher who can really inspired you and cultured your own thinking ability rather than just telling you to do sth. I’m so lucky that I could meet her as my teacher.

Frequently asked questions

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

First and foremost, it's crucial to acquaint yourself with the students. Understand their personalities and their background in piano learning. The teaching approaches may need to adapt based on their specific requirements and musical experience. For beginners, the focus is on introducing music notations, rhythms, articulations, and basic techniques. They will learn introductory pieces with simple melodies and accompaniment. At the intermediate level, students will engage in an in-depth study of intermediate piano repertoire. They'll develop a foundational understanding of musical forms, music theory, music history, and various musical genres, including classical, jazz, and popular music. Additionally, emphasis will be placed on techniques, sound production, and musical expressions, such as phrasing, voicing, and dynamic contrasts. Advanced students will acquire an in-depth understanding of musical styles, interpretations, textures, and historical contexts within the advanced piano repertoire. We'll address technical challenges, explore various physical approaches, and progressively cultivate the artistic confidence and individuality necessary for outstanding performances.

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

Commenced piano studies at the age of 5. Classical training at the conservatory from age 14. Bachelor's degree in piano performance from Sichuan Conservatory of Music. Master's degree in piano performance from the University of Kansas. Doctoral degree in piano performance from the University of Missouri-Kansas City.
