Testimonials

“Mrs. Wen is a great piano teacher. My sons have been with her for few years. She taught them not only the skills but also enjoyment in playing the piano. We highly recommend Wen.”   -Yoon C.

“My daughter has been working with Ms. Wen for the past six years, and we are so fortunate to have found such a talented, patient and creative piano teacher.  You can truly feel her passion for both music and teaching, as the intersectionality of these is where she truly shines! From the recitals that she organizes to the small ways that she encourages and motivates her students (aka teaching Taylor Swift songs to further engage my daughter’s interest), Ms. Wen is truly one of the best.  Her recitals have students with a range of ages, which further speaks to her ability to meet and teach students where they are at based on their developmental level.  She is a model to her students, as she too continues to challenge herself as a pianist which is exemplified by her recent publication of her first piano song composition book.  I highly recommend Ms. Wen, hands down!”   -Anna D.

“My daughter has been learning piano from Ms. Wen for about a year now. She is very patient and she adjusts to student’s personal style and needs in her teaching. We are very happy about having her!”   -Suini L.

“I have studied with Wen for over two years.  She is an exceptional teacher, performer and composer.  As an older student, I was somewhat hesitant about returning to lessons, but she was immediately welcoming and supportive.  Her teaching style is very well-rounded.  In addition to playing, lessons can include discussions of technique and theory, as well as recordings and concerts – I find the lessons to be totally engaging.  I love the music she selects, and she is always receptive to adding pieces of my choosing.  She also provides opportunities for performing.  Her dedication, support and encouragement are truly an inspiration.  I feel so very fortunate that I was referred to her!”   -Nancy C.

“Vera has taken lessons with Wen for the past 4 years, and they have cultivated a very special bond. Wen is calm, caring, and genuinely interested in her students. She communicates her teaching and expectations effectively while also listening to and having conversations with her students. Vera can talk honestly with Wen about her struggles and joys as a pianist in training, and Wen always has suggestions for motivating Vera, helping her to set achievable goals and choose music she is excited about from a variety of genres. Vera never felt pressured but knew her teacher had high expectations for her, which is crucial for cultivating motivation. Wen has a rare combination of exceptional musicianship, understanding of children’s development, ability to meet the diverse needs of her many students, and the organizational skills and thoughtfulness to provide numerous performance opportunities for her students based on their interest and skill level. We’re grateful to have Wen as a teacher and friend in our lives. ”   -Michelle M.
