About
Ms Corrine has 15 years of experience teaching piano to students of various ages. She is also a former (NIE-trained) secondary school teacher.
At age 18, Corrine completed her LTCL Diploma in Piano with Distinction. Her knowledge and passion greatly expanded while studying ‘A’ Level Music under the Music Elective Programme at Raffles Junior College.
There, she was inspired by her teacher to take up the MOE scholarship to further her studies overseas. She enrolled in Birmingham University, UK and majored in Music with a minor in English Literature.
Upon her return to Singapore, she completed her teacher training at NIE and taught Music and English at a secondary school. She served in MOE for 7 years before moving on to become a full-time piano teacher.
Ms Corrine’s lessons are customized to suit her students’ abilities, personalities, needs and goals. For students taking the ABRSM exams, she provides comprehensive coverage of practical, theory, sight-reading and aural skills. She creates her own learning materials for theory and aural.
Ms Corrine enjoys connecting with youngsters and maintaining close communication with their parents. She sees potential in every student; she has coached transfer students who had previously failed in their music exams and helped them to gain significant improvement.
To encourage lifelong enjoyment of music, and for students who want to learn for leisure, she includes music from pop, movie and computer game genres as well as duets in her lessons. For those who are keen to perform, she also prepares them for live concerts organized by the Happy Pianist, as well as other music festivals.
