Introduction: I provide piano, theory and ear training lessons at my home or on Skype. I have 11 years of experience teaching students from ages two to adulthood. I have a Bachelor of Music in Piano and Music Education from Berklee College of Music, a conservatory that specializes in contemporary music. In addition, I hold a DipABRSM in Classical Piano Performance, so I am qualified to teach both classical and contemporary styles. I have also been an elementary general music teacher as well as a high school choral teacher at public schools and can tailor my classes to all ages. I am certified to teach early childhood -- Grade 12 music in the state of Texas. Some examples of classes may be the following: * Jazz piano lessons for beginner, intermediate or advanced students * Classical theory for all levels -- Beginning musicians may wish to learn reading/notation, while advanced musicians may wish to study four-part chorale/counterpoint writing. * Jazz theory for all levels -- From lead sheet analysis to modal harmony writing * Ear training in both classical and jazz including relative pitch, harmonic dictation, melodic diction, sight-singing * Preparation for music performance, theory exams and auditions including ABRSM, RCM, IBDP, IBMYP, AP, and TMEA all state Compensation is $1/minute, minimum of 30 minutes Please contact me for a free consultation. Clara Chan, B.Mus (summa cum laude)

Clara is awesome! She tutored me over the summer before I began my freshman year at Berklee College of Music, and helped prepare me for the Entering Student Proficiency Assessment. She has excellent jazz theory knowledge and solfege skills, and as a Berklee alum, she was able to help me prepare for college-level work. With her tutoring, I was able to test into Ear Training 3 and Harmony 2X (an intensive course), when I previously had only had limited knowledge of jazz theory. All the work Clara assigned was very helpful - even after 2 semesters at Berklee, I still use some of the methods she taught me! Clara is great if you want a lot of personal focus, flexible class times, and a nurturing learning environment. She is very professional and very patient, which makes her a great teacher. Her extensive knowledge makes her suitable for any music tutoring you might need. I highly recommend Clara!

Clara has been teaching me music theory and sight singing for the past four years. She is a very patient, inspiring and organised teacher, making lessons interesting and adapting them to fit my needs. I would recommend her to adults and children as she is able to deal with all age groups and levels.
