Patricia's studio in Tengah is a quick drive away, offering piano, violin, and musicianship lessons shaped around each child's individual needs and curiosities.
Meet the Teacher
About Patricia
Patricia has over ten years of experience teaching music to children. Her Tengah studio is a short drive from Chinese Garden, and she regularly works with families from the wider Jurong district.
Her teaching stands apart because of her background in both music and child development. A Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education with Music Education means she understands how children think, feel, and learn at each stage of development. This informs everything from how she introduces new concepts to how she manages the energy and flow of each lesson.
She offers piano and violin lessons and is happy to guide children who want to sample both before choosing. ABRSM preparation is available for both instruments, but she is equally devoted to helping students who learn without the pressure of formal exams. Her manner is gentle, attentive, and always centred on the child.
Why Families Trust Patricia
Why Families from Chinese Garden Choose Patricia
Rounded Musical Education
Patricia teaches both piano and violin and embeds music theory, ear training, and rhythm work into every session. Children do not just learn to play an instrument; they develop an understanding of music as a whole. This breadth is particularly helpful for young learners who are still figuring out what they enjoy most.
Child Development Expertise
Patricia's Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education and Music Education gives her a clear understanding of how children learn at different ages. She does not apply a one-size-fits-all method; instead, she reads each child's readiness and builds lessons that match where they are developmentally, keeping expectations realistic and motivation high.
Your Choice of Learning Path
Whether your child works towards ABRSM graded exams or learns through a more informal, repertoire-driven approach, Patricia supports both routes fully. She helps parents weigh the options and chooses the direction that matches their child's temperament and goals, adjusting the plan as the child grows.
Dedicated One-on-One Attention
Patricia's Tengah studio is a private home setting, which means no shared spaces, no competing noise, and no waiting around. Your child receives her complete focus for the full lesson. Families from the Chinese Garden area appreciate this contrast to larger music centres where individual attention can be limited.

Lesson Structure
What Lessons Look Like
Every lesson is one-to-one and lasts between 45 and 60 minutes. Patricia tailors the length to each child's age and experience, beginning with shorter sessions for younger starters and extending gradually as they build focus and endurance.
Sessions combine instrument practice on piano or violin with music theory, ear training, and rhythm exercises. Patricia transitions between activities purposefully, ensuring children remain engaged while progressing toward concrete goals. Sight-reading, aural skills, and technical development are woven in naturally rather than treated as separate tasks.
Whether your child comes to Patricia's Tengah studio or she visits your home in the Chinese Garden area, lessons are structured identically: personal, focused, and designed around your child's way of learning.
