Ms. Wang has been teaching private violin lessons since 2014. She strives to build strong foundation in the beginning studying of her students, so the students learn more efficiently for the long run. Her ultimate goal is to:
1. inspire students to have a growth mindset--their intelligence can grow by putting effort.
2. help students find their own voices through instrument playing.
3. motivate students to be their own teacher.--conduct self-discipline practice, looking for resources to support their studying...etc. One day when they leave the teacher, they can keep on learning.
自2014年，音樂教育者王暄開始教授私人小提琴學生，並指導樂團課、樂團排練、室內樂演奏。她致力於在學生初學階段建構穩固的根基，為長期的學習打基礎。2018年她成為鈴木教育法認證教師，相信每個孩子，只要有對的環境，都能夠演奏音樂。教學中，她的終極目標是：
1. 啟發學生擁有成長型心智--透過付出努力，能力是能夠成長的。
2. 幫助學生找到自己的聲音，不僅僅是演奏小提琴的聲音，更是能獨立思考、有自己的表達方式。
3. 鼓舞學生成為自己的老師。透過學習演奏小提琴，學生學習有紀律地練習、建立自學能力，有朝一日離開了老師以後，仍然能夠持續學習。

pHILOSOPHY
I agree with Dr. Suzuki's concept of Every Child Can.--With the right environment, every student can learn to play instruments. As a Suzuki teacher, I address the importance of listening to music. Just as how a baby learn to speak: before he can utter a word, he first got exposed to this language by listening. I encourage my student and the parents to adjust their lifestyle so that musical experiences will be part of the family activity. I also encourage an adult to participate in lesson and practice for the student's first two years of studying. Although it is challenging for modern family to invest time to accompany the student's studying, those who have been doing so see the process improve the relationship between the parents and the students. More so, the studying is more efficient and effective.
Good posture is my primary focus in teaching. I believe bad posture, even if it works at the moment to make a sound, it will lead to pain and obstacle for a more advanced piece, and it will thus kill the interests of the student.
教學理念
受到鈴木鎮一先生的啟發，我相信每個孩子，只要擁有適切的環境，都能夠學習演奏樂器！作為教育者，透過與家庭的合作，攜手打造適合孩子學習的環境。教學中，我注重聆聽音樂，且不僅是正在學習的音樂，而是各種不同風格的音樂。就像小嬰孩學習說話前，他先透過聆聽大量的語言，建構出對於母語的概念。因此我透過佈達聆聽的作業，讓學生更多元地接觸音樂。我也鼓勵家長將音樂活動變成家庭活動的一部份，小提琴學習不只是孩子的才藝課，更成為使家人情感更親密的催化劑。我鼓勵家長參與初學至少頭兩年的學習。雖然對於現代一家庭來說這很有挑戰性，但如此能加強初學階段的有效學習。
健康的姿勢是我的教學重點之一。我相信當學生有不良的姿勢，即便仍可發出聲音，長期下來會引發疼痛，甚至當學習的素材更進階了，會有使不上力的現象。這會直接扼殺學生學習的興趣，因此我致力於尋找每個學生最接近自然狀態的演奏姿勢。
I help my students gain opportunities to play music with others. According to my experiences, playing with peers has a myriad of advantages. To name a few, you learn to be a good listener, and to respond to what you hear, you adjust and vary what you play, which train one to be resilient and attentive--these are abilities that help one thrive in other aspects of life as well! Moreover, by tackling the difficult skills and passages together, the student knows they are not the lonely ones, but everyone faces difficulties in their studying! Therefore, I offer group classes and recitals so the students can join their peers from the studio or other teacher's studios. We encourage positive motivation from peers.
透過大班課、合奏機會、音樂會，我鼓勵學生彼此學習激勵。與同儕演奏音樂的優點不勝枚舉，例如可以練習更主動地聆聽、拓展演奏的彈性，在面對困難時，也可以知道自己並不孤單，所有人都會在學習中都會碰到困難，因此更有毅力克服難題。我鼓勵學生彼此欣賞彼此的演出，並透過合作機會幫助彼此。
