Jessica has participated in several masterclasses over the years, taught by the likes of American pianist Dr. Steven Spooner, Taiwanese-French pianist Lysianne Chen and Professor Manfred Fork from Germany. She has also played in a masterclass taught by British pianist Murray Mclachlan as part of a music camp organised by the Overseas Masters Winter Piano Academy (OWMPA) at the Yehudi Menuhin School of Music in the UK and won prizes in competitions such as the Singapore Performers’ Festival and the Kota Kinabalu Music Festival.
As a performer, Jessica has performed in several concerts such as the ABRSM Grade 8 High Scorers’ Concert held at the Old Parliament House in Singapore and the Love of Music Charity Concert organised by some of her teachers in Singapore. Jessica has been teaching since 2018, with students ranging from beginners. She is familiar with the ABRSM syllabus and has guided her students through challenges such as scales and sight-reading. She breaks down technical difficulties for her students when they learn new pieces and introduce practice strategies to overcome the challenges.
Jessica believes in setting a good foundation for her students by stressing the importance of paying attention to details in the music and learning to play musically. She has managed to self-devise and recommend appropriate lesson materials to help beginners gain confidence in note-reading and develop skills to count rhythms and follow fingering. She tailors her lessons to the different needs and preferences of her students as well as supplements a diverse range of repertoire to enrich their musical journey and improve their technique.
