About Shanshan
Hello! I am a piano doctoral candidate in piano performance major at the University of Utah.
You can find more information about my lessons on my website: (concealed information)
With over a decade of teaching experience, I've come to understand that each student is unique. I tailor my teaching approach to meet individual needs, helping students reach their full potential at their own pace.
For young students, I believe an encouraging and positive environment is essential as they begin developing their interest in music. I strive to make piano lessons enjoyable and inspiring, using motivational tools like stickers and clear, achievable goals to create a sense of accomplishment. I aim to protect their natural curiosity and love of music while helping them build discipline and confidence along the way.
For teen students, I focus on nurturing not only their technical and expressive abilities but also their capacity for independent thinking. At this stage, students are ready to explore the “why” and “how” behind music, why a composer chose certain harmonies, how phrasing affects interpretation, and what personal meaning they can bring to a piece. I encourage them to ask questions, form their own musical opinions, and make interpretive decisions with intention.
For adult students, I focus on building a solid foundation while allowing room for exploration. I emphasize musical expression, healthy technique, and stress-free learning, helping adults find joy and fulfillment through music at any stage of life.
As a conservatory-deep-trained musician, my specialty lies in the classical repertoire while drawing from other styles such as jazz and popular music, integrating them into lessons when appropriate to support a well-rounded musical education. I believe that exposing students to a variety of styles makes their musical journey more exciting and motivating.
I strive to help students develop well-rounded musicianship. I will incorporate music theory, sight reading, ear training, and technique into class while working on a repertoire. As students progress, I continually build on their individual technical routines and reinforce theory concepts whenever needed. I also provide clear and specific guidance on effective home practice strategies to foster independent learning.

Over the years, I have studied with several different piano teachers, but Jenny is by far the best I’ve ever had. She is an incredibly experienced instructor who can quickly identify my technical issues and offer multiple solutions on the spot. She also provides practice strategies that make my home practice much more effective. I highly recommend her if you’re looking for a truly professional and dedicated piano teacher who can help you refine your technique and develop your overall musical expression.
