Testimonials
She explains things in a way I can understand and makes sure I know it well. She's the best teacher I've had.
Li-San finds ways of teaching that suit my needs. She's creative and motivates practice by introducing really fun and engaging practising routines that are quick and easy to learn! Other teachers I've been to were rigid on repertoire I learnt and always delivered a traditional lesson with the same routine. That got quite boring! Li-San is flexible and very passionate. I have learnt a great deal from her.
Li-San's lessons are more fun and relaxed than other teachers were.
I look forward to lessons and practise more than before. The pieces Li-San teaches me are more enjoyable.
