Hi, I am so impressed with her teaching that i would like to write her a testimonial

I have been a silent follower of her threads in singaporemotherhood and sg parenting. After reading her replies and this blog, i have been contemplating if i should ferry my kids to her place(bedok) for a free trial lesson as we resides at woodlands. Over the weekend, i have decided to give it a try (anyway it's free and the most, we just have to ferry the kids there)

I would like to say i am total impressed with her and her teaching. I know my kids are those very difficult to handle expecially when they are together. But she simply has no difficulties coping with them. What impressed us the most is, after the lesson, my kids wanted us to buy a piano immediately and they showed so much interest in learning piano. Being parents, my hubby and I were so happy and decided to ferry our kids every week.

Reason being, before trying out pianojazz's trial lesson, my kids went to another teacher for trial lesson too. It turns out to be disastrous. Immediately after the lessons, my girl was crying and told us she doesn't want to learn piano anymore. (that is also one of the reason why i am contemplating to trying out at pianojazz's)

For both trial lesson, I requested to be sitted in. Pianojazz's teaching method is really different from the previous teacher. She is also very very patient and can click very well with my kids. I can see that she is very systematic and knows what she is doing.

Hence, my hubby and i discussed and concluded that there might be a lot of teachers out there but good teachers or those who can click with our children are not easy to find (ke3 yu4 bu4 ke3 qiu2)

Another thing that impresses me is that, i called her after the lesson and ask her about buying pianos. She is so patient, telling me the differences between asian and european piano etc. But since my husband insist on Yamaha piano only, i requested her to check for me.

She is very efficient and call me back a while later. She can get a better price for me (save about 1k)as she has friends working in yamaha. Not only that, she even check about the next sale. It is only 1 and a half months later which i can save another 1k. Really impressed with her.

Not only that, she suggest that i should wait for another 1 and a half month for the sale, she even offer to let my kids stay longer at her place(about 15 min per child) for them to practice since we do not have a piano yet. With so many students she has on hand, she is still willing to squeeze out some time for my children to practice. What else can i say :)

She even encourage my children to perform in her upcoming student's recital in Nov. She said, though they just started, but if by then they can play a couple of tunes, just let them have some exposure. It will be very beneficial to the children. I believe so too and my children are also very happy about it.

I am not related to her and don't earn anything out of this. But just that after a bad experience, and found a good teacher, i believe i should share with others. I do believe a lot of parents faced the same thing too like having a bad experience or some not once only.
