Music is Maurice’s passion and it is a joy when he is able to nurture the appreciation and sensitivity of music in others. He began his journey in music as an adult beginner and obtained ABRSM Grade 8 with distinction in just one and a half years of committed learning and practice.

Having had this experience, Maurice has specialised himself into intelligently and effectively teaching youths and adult beginners to be able to progress at an accelerated pace. In his teaching, he takes emphasis in simplifying musical concepts and breaking down the complexities of piano technique into bite size bits, which serve as enablers to facilitate the creation of a positive learning cycle through the students development of competencies and confidence. With the employment of an effective practice routine that Maurice has developed over the years, many of his beginner students have been able to start playing the pieces they like after just a few lessons.

Teaching music through pieces that his students are enthusiastic about is quintessential to Maurice’s approach as he has found this to be an effective way to maintain their interest that has often been spoiled by rigid and strict methodologies. Through this, the lessons remain student-centric and always has a higher chance of being a good and lasting match.

Pearlyn has been teaching piano and music since 2013. Her students ranges from 4-year-old kids to adults over 30 years old. Her teaching experience includes teaching music in primary schools and also individual piano lessons for grading and leisure at a music school as well as private students.

Since the age of 4, Pearlyn has been exposed to music and that helped her to express her emotions in different ways (excited, upset etc.). As such, she always find that learning piano or music in general helps children to express themselves.

Pearlyn likes to share her knowledge and experience of what she enjoys to children so that they can learn to appreciate music as much as she does. During her lessons, Pearlyn likes to use visual tools (magnets, keyboards, magnetic notes) for younger children as it helps them to understand and visualise better the notes, and it is also more interactive.

Samuel has been teaching piano throughout University. His teaching experience is mainly with kids, either in group settings or 1 to 1. Of course he is also competent with all other students. He has a thorough musical background, being in choir in his secondary school days (section leader), and a keyboardist later on in JC. Samuel has also performed several times in weddings, band performances, and even online.

He has a very strong talent in improvisations that is part of his skill set he can utilise. Through his past experiences, Samuel believes that lessons should have an optimal balance of fun and practical learning. Too much fun is just impractical and too much practical learning may bore the student and end up being ineffective. He also has other teaching experience in classroom settings in other topics and on improvisation.
