About Me
Hi there!My name is Melanie and I recently moved to Hong Kong in 2020. Although it has been a difficult time, I absolutely love this beautiful city and everything it has to offer.
I work full-time as a commercial lawyer, and have done so for the past 6 years. However, I have a passion for mathematics and music (especially for classical piano), and therefore teach both on the side of work.
In terms of music, I completed my Licentiate diploma in piano and Associate diploma in music theory at a young age. I have been playing piano ever since, and started teaching piano at the end of Secondary School and throughout University.
In terms of mathematics, I was accelerated two years during Secondary School, and graduated on the top of my class. I recently completed my undergraduate degree in Actuarial Studies at the University of Melbourne with First Class Honours, which required the completion of advanced mathematics courses including calculus, linear algebra, probability and statistics. I have been tutoring mathematics throughout University.
I love teaching students, and encouraging them to advance academically and musically. I make lessons fun and engaging. I am always on-time, well-prepared and enthusiastic to teach.
I hope to hear from you soon!

Tailor Made Piano Lessons for All Ages and All LevelsI hold a Master of Music degree in piano performance (with merit) at Goldsmiths, University of London and have taught piano and music theory to students in Hong Kong, Beijing, Zhejiang and London for over fifteen years.
I welcome students from beginner to advanced level and am equally happy to help my students pass music exams or just learn to play piano for their own enjoyment.
When teaching kids and beginners, I strictly follow the traditional conservatory method of training the postures, fingers and muscles properly from the very beginning of the learning process. And for kids, I highly recommend that parent(s) can help monitor their practice at home.
For adult students, the most important thing is to analyse your performance, to find the problems that prevent you from playing better, face them and fix them. I provide creative solutions according to your conditions. I helped a senior student (60+ years old) to pass ABRSM Grade 8 with merit, a 20-year-old student to play keyboard and sing in his band after 10 lessons, and a high school student to get music scholarship in UK.
I believe in the power of encouragement and motivation. And always remember, practice makes perfect.
I teach in Mid-Levels West, Hong Kong.
I teach through English, Mandarin and Cantonese.

Piano lessons for all levels and ages (Mandarin & English teaching)I am a professional classical pianist from Shanghai, China, having more than 10 years of experience in music teaching. I graduated from the Shanghai Conservatory of Music with a Bachelor degree in music (with honors), Australian Institute of Music with a Master Diploma in Arts Management and Master degree in Child and Family Education in The Education University of Hong Kong.
I won various 1st prize in Shanghai, China, Asia divisions and I had some small to large scale of personal concerts in China. I also performed as a singer during 2011-2020.
I have the highest language proficiency certificate in Mandarin Chinese, and I feel most comfortable with teaching in Mandarin. But I am professional in speaking English, Cantonese and Korean as well.
I am confident that I will provide my students the best learning experience.

Cheslava
Piano and Singing tutor with 5 years experience and professional educationFrom my childhood I have been studying music and art: sang in choir and solo, played piano, painted, studied music history and literature, solfeggio. Later in college I have also learned choir conducting, had ensemble and choir singing lessons,
cultural studies.
During last year in university I had pedagogy practice at university and at private art school (where I worked as a music tutor before the war - piano, voice). I truly enjoyed working with students. They all were different age (8 - 40+ years old) and level. But all were very interesting and work was pleasant.
My education was very various: my core subjects were conducting, choir, voice, piano. So it allowed me to work with children, teens and adults with quite wide range of interests and needs: some students needed/wanted to learn particular composition(s), sometimes pop songs arrangements, some were interested in “introduction” to the music, some wanted to renew skills they gained in their childhood and continue their journey to the music world. In addition I prepared presentations (which contained information about cultural and historical background and musical and character/art analysis).
So after graduation from choir conducting faculty (which allowed me to deepen my knowledge in many important compatible branches) I concentrated on studying classical singing and piano, expanded my cultural studies and analysis knowledge, practiced solfeggio and harmony.

GUITAR LESSON for ALL LEVELS ✨ taught by a seasoned CONSERVATOIRE PROFESSOR! 🎶The lessons can be conducted in English 🇬🇧, Spanish 🇪🇸 , or Italian 🇮🇹 , ensuring accessibility for all students.
Age and musical preferences are not limitations; with qualitative daily practice, rather than sheer quantity, progress can be swiftly observed. 💪🏼 🎶
My approach to classical guitar lessons is centered on tailoring them to each student's individual needs and potential. I prioritize fostering enthusiasm and motivation as primary tools for conveying technical and theoretical concepts, alongside a deep love for music. Lessons are open to students of all ages and skill levels. 🚀
The focus of the course revolves around the joy of playing music. Your favorite genres and pieces will take center stage, with a thorough exploration of their codes and secrets. Together, we'll delve into technical exercises and learn to play pièces of your choice or mine, enriching your repertoire and enhancing your playing style. 🤩
For example, we can reimagine pieces by applying advanced techniques such as the CAGED system, incorporating new chords, positions, and techniques like arpeggios and fingerstyle playing. This expands the instrument's capabilities and your playing skills, ensuring continuous progress and improvement. 👨🏻🏫
Upon request, the program also includes theoretical studies, which are presented in an accessible manner suitable for both beginners and experienced musicians. Exercises, pieces, and theoretical explanations are structured in a progressive order of difficulty.🔥
The theoretical program covers a range of topics, including guitar tuning, chord theory, scales and modes, finger picking techniques, strumming patterns, metronome practice, learning favorite songs, improvisation, harmony, melody, and rhythm theory.⚡️
Together, we'll embark on a musical journey tailored to your goals and aspirations, ensuring a fulfilling and enriching experience with the classical guitar.🔝☄️

Getting to Grips with Music Theory is simpler than you think!The theory of everything tends to be really scary and music theory can be too. I am very keen to make music theory easy for everyone. For some people there is only one way to tackle the unmentionable but I believe there are many different approaches and one of them will click with you. It is simply finding out what is best for each person. Once we find the key we can unlock the problems that have puzzled you for ages.
Music theory needs to be more than a requirement, it needs to be the way to really appreciate the music you are playing. Certain aspects can also lead to additional practical skills such as improvisation which can be very useful as well as very enjoyable.
Whether you want to understand a particular aspect of music theory or If you struggle with music theory in general, then this is the class for you - why not give it a try?
