"I guess I have unconsciously incorporated the trait of quality deliverance from my corporate experience into my piano teaching. My aim is to utilize available resources effectively for both parents and students," she elaborates. The consistent distinction results of her students are available for viewing upon request.

HER TEACHING STYLE

Though Evelyn's teaching is purpose-driven, her style is flexible too. She understands that each child differs in character and ability. For instance, finding the right key from note-reading can be quite an arduous task for a 6 year old as compared to a 14 year old. Thus more time and guidance have to be given for learning. Evelyn looks at a situation from the child's perspective rather than her own. Empathiszing with each chld's disposition, she adapts her style to bring out the best in each child.

Evelyn's dynamism can be observed in the variety of areas covered each lesson. Aural aspects such as singing and clapping are included instead of confining to practical alone. She acknowledges that aural skills stimulate one's musical sense. Duet-playing is also practised to increaise the students' interest and participation. "The whole idea is to make musical learning purposeful and fun," she explains.

OTHER INTERESTS

Evelyn's other interests include travelling to exotic countries such as Egypt and South Africa. She is an avid book lover and enjoys a weekly dip in the pool.
