For over a year, Han Nah has been my piano instructor and has been invaluable in helping me advance my piano skills. Her intuitive teaching methods are highly effective as she meticulously identifies and discusses my mistakes so I can improve my playing. Han Nah's punctuality is commendable and during the sessions, she actively works on my weak points, like rhythm, so I can bolster my skills in those areas. During the class, I recite my homework piece before delving into a new piece and practicing scales and music theory, including note identification and recognition. To track my progress, I use a practice chart, and Han Nah usually assigns two pieces of homework, coupled with a bit of theory and listening to compositions by the likes of Bach or Beethoven. Her instruction is impeccable with a positive attitude throughout the sessions, making it easy for me to remember the complex terms she explains. I always look forward to attending the piano class, even if I didn't grasp any concept during the previous session.
