About

As a teacher with over 30 years of experience, my goal is to help each student develop their musical potential to the fullest. It begins by laying a good foundation with music fundamentals using effective methods and tools, developing good learning skills and perseverance that carry through life. Subsequently, building on that with good technique and artistry where piano becomes a medium for self-expression. Whether a beginner or advancing student, I start from where they are and bring them to the next level so they can blossom and flourish and share the joy of music-making with others!

Student Achievements:

Distinction with Honors in RCM Grades 6 - 10.

    We have known Dr. Sansbury for many years. When my older son was 7 years old, his piano teacher moved to another state. She recommended Dr. Sansbury to us. Now my older son is 14 years old. My younger son started his piano lesson with her when he was 5 years old and he is 9 now. She only raised the tuition one time during so many years. She can taught very advanced level piano. On the other hand, she is very patient with little kids too. My kids like her and they are very comfortable to ask questions if they have any. She also recommended different piano performance activities to them and let them choose what they like to get involved in. As a parent, I feel I may freely communicate with her about any issue.

    Dr. Sansbury is the best teacher for piano performance and music education, who especially combines scientific methods and systematic curriculum. She has many years of experience and very serious in her teaching; She is nice to and patient with students. My daughter made great progress not only in techniques but also in theory ever since the lessons with her.

    To me, Dr. Sansbury is more than just a piano teacher. From first grade through high school graduation, she continuously challenged me to strive for excellence and musicality. Some words that describe her: talented, professional, dedicated, perceptive, personable, encouraging.
    While majoring in piano performance in college, I found that she had provided a solid background for my music theory and history classes. She has also helped me in teaching my own piano students, through example and advice. We keep in contact, and I trust and respect her. I can’t imagine a better influence in my life.

    Frequently asked questions

    I like to set up a meeting with the prospective student and the parent to see if we would be a good match.  If it is a transfer student, I like to hear some playing to see where the student is at.  Usually, the first lesson would involve diagnostic testing with a transfer student. For a student without any prior musical experience, I would have to determine what kind of method is best suited for the student based on age and cognitive ability.

    Undergraduate and graduate degrees in piano performance and pedagogy.
    I started teaching as a teenager before graduating from high school in Singapore. My parents felt that music was an honorable profession. After coming to the US for undergraduate studies and finishing with graduate school, music finally came full circle for me. I am now passionate about teaching music and passing my skills to the next generation!
    I have worked with all kinds of students, from beginner to advanced, young children to adults, new and transfer students. My strength is helping someone who has already had some lessons but want to progress to the next level in their technique and artistry.
