Sharing my Passion
陳老師的教學目標是啟發每個學生對音樂的熱誠，同時教授必要的技巧和理論。她認為音樂學習可以增強自信心，鼓勵良好的學習態度，並使他們能夠挑戰自己的局限；所有的孩子都有自己的音樂天賦，只要有適當的方法加上有趣生動和愉快的學習環境，以及良好的導師，他們總能從音樂學習的過程中受益。
Joyce's main objective is to inspire a love of music in each student, while teaching necessary technique and theory. She believes music learning can boost self-confidence, encourage good learning attitudes and prepare them to challenge their limitations. All children have their own musical gifts, and with a proper approach, a fun and enjoyable environment, and a good mentor they can always benefit from the process of music learning.
