How she teaches
“Every student learns differently, and grows at their own pace.”
Student-centred
Every lesson is shaped to the student's pace, not a syllabus's.
Early-childhood-trained
A B.Ed in Early Childhood & Music means lessons are built around how 4–7-year-olds actually learn — not adult piano scaled down.
Home studio in Tengah
A calm, home-based studio that puts students of all ages at ease.

The teaching
Six ways Patricia meets a student where they are.
Private piano lessons for children from age 4
I start with the ear and the hands. Notation comes second, not first.
Private piano lessons for adults
You're not starting late. You're starting now, with a teacher who treats that seriously.
ABRSM piano exam preparation (Grades 1–8)
The grade is a checkpoint, not the point. I build the musician first.
ABRSM violin exam preparation (Grades 1–8)
Tone before tricks. If it doesn't sound musical, the grade doesn't matter.
ABRSM music theory preparation
Theory is how I explain what your ears already know. We work in that order.
DSA music audition preparation
DSA panels can tell when a student has been drilled. I prepare them to play, not perform.
