大家好,
我是墨尔本大学音乐表演教育硕士毕业生,师从Tamara Smoylar五年。除了钢琴教学外,我还专注于音乐理论和听力的指导,帮助学生在实践与理论上全面发展。
我的资质认证:
-全程英语授课
- Suzuki铃木音乐教师
- Yamaha雅马哈音乐教师
- 私人钢琴教师
我提供的音乐理论课程涵盖了AMEB和ABRSM教学大纲,适合各种水平的学生。同时,我也为准备VCE音乐理论考试的学生提供专业辅导。
在传统教学方法中,我强调运用精湛的技术,以最大化音乐表演的质量。在师从Tamara Smoylar期间,我深入钻研了俄罗斯钢琴学派的技巧。这种方法重视手指的独立性和力度的细腻控制,从而使演奏更富有表现力和精准度。我致力于将这些卓越的技术传授给我的学生,帮助他们在音乐表演中达到更高的艺术境界。
如果您在Burwood地区寻找一位专业且有资质的音乐理论教师,欢迎与我联系。名额有限,请尽早预约。期待与您一起深入探索音乐的奥秘!
