About

There are no better things than seeing my students making progress in their cello playing. I think every professional musicians will agree with me that it is absolutely crucial to focus on posture and sound production in the early stage of learning any instruments. Therefore, I always pay extra attention on how my students develop an efficient way of playing the cello, properly using their arm weight and feeling comfortable to produce resonant sound continually.

I personally struggled a lot on cello bow hold and sound production, meaning producing sonorous tone while feeling relaxed. That's why it is always rewarding to see my students improve their sound quality and develop a sense of security with the instrument, making it an extension of their body.

    Absolutely the best teacher, Jack (Mr. Huang) taught my 9 yr old daughter and my 7 yr old son.
    My daughter absolutely loved Jack, she is sensitive in that she likes to please her instructors and looks for acceptance in her teachers response, Jack always provided and gave her just what she needed to motivate her to play throughout the week until their next lesson.
    My 7yr old is on Spectrum and can be prideful and argumentative, Jack handled him well and was even able to get him to like him and receive instruction. This was for sure a huge win!
    What I appreciated about Jack is that he was able to understand the childrens questions about music, knowing how they were thinking and exactly why they were understanding the music piece, or notes, or how to play incorrectly. I realized that if an instructor doesnt understand why the student is thinking the way they do, then they can not properly correct them. Jack understood it all! He not only remembered when he himself was first taught and how he and his peers had similar questions or understanding, but also he was able to empathize with the childrens playing in a way that gave him intuitive ability to understand the childrens way of playing, and because of this ability to truly connect was he then able to correct their understanding.
    Jack teaches a love for the cello, he teaches a love for playing. For him, its not just about the next recital, its about enjoying the journey of playing along the way and the children saw this about him and it made all the difference in their weekly motivation to practice.

    Frequently asked questions

    I would typically assess the student's level of playing in order to give him/her constructive guidance that will help the most. Secondly, I would design an individual curriculum to integrate a variety of pieces, etudes, and technical exercises. When working with young children, I would also assign music that is more familiar to them to keep them interested with their practice and study.

    I am currently pursuing my Doctoral of Musical Arts degree at Manhattan School of Music, studying with Prof. Julia Lichten. Prior to my doctoral studies, I earned my Master of Music at the Juilliard School under the tutelage of Richard Aaron.

    I charge $80 for a one-hour lesson.

    Both children and adults.

    I would say it's important to fact-check the background of the teachers, including their education, performance history and maybe google their name and see if anything comes up.

    Identify their goal for learning the cello and thoroughly assess what they think they might need to work on.
