Cristina Huang Music Studio

As a Steinway Certified Educator and seasoned music teacher with over a decade of experience, I have honed my natural talent for instructing students across various musical instruments. My proficiency in developing lesson plans and curricula, motivational abilities, and commitment to encouraging student growth and achievement have been recognized throughout my career.

My areas of expertise extend to performance assessment, relationship management, strategic planning, ABRSM and NYSMMA exam preparation, Violin Piano Viola lessons, and standards management. To excel in these areas, I utilize effective communication and teaching skills, as well as in-depth knowledge of piano, viola, violin, and other musical instruments.

Presently, I provide music lessons to learners of all ages and skill levels, tailoring my lesson plans to cater to individual student needs. Further, I work closely with senior leadership, learners, and staff to ensure maximum student learning and development.

Colleagues depict me as a dynamic, innovative, musical expert who guarantees quality music instruction to all students.

My Teaching Methods:
For beginners, especially children between 3-5 years, I start with Hal Leonard's Essential Elements, coupled with some music theory, to help them read music notes on staff. As students make progress, I introduce etudes for finger technique development, assign repertoire to build music expression, and recommend music pieces to listen to.

For teenagers and adults, I inquire about their music interests and set agreeable music goals while continually building and practicing technique.

My Teaching Style:
I am most delighted when I see my students develop an intense passion for music. Hence, I allow students to learn at their own pace, considering their schedules and encouraging consistent practice. I inspire students to set goals and work towards achieving them, even if it's few lines or bars per week, following proper positions for sound development.
