“Preparation for Competition and Exam”

Our daughter studied here for about two years and recently passed the MTAC CM Level 7 exam at age 13 with State Honor. She also received awards at the US Open Music Competition every year

The teacher provided a structured approach and helped her build a solid foundation. She has high expectations and pays close attention to details, which supported consistent progress over time.

“Emphasis on Proper Posture”

Sharon is a kind and encouraging teacher with my 7 year old. I appreciate how she puts a lot of emphasis on proper posture (both body and fingers) from the very start to prevent bad habits in the future that may be difficult to correct. She is able to teach at the child's individual pace and does not pressure them. At her recitals, all of her students sound amazing!

“Great at Motivating the Kids.”

My kids started piano only last fall at ages 13 and 10. We met several teachers, but we liked Sharon right away and decided to set up regular lessons with her at the first meeting. We are very fortunate that she was able to create availability for us!

Sharon put the kids on the right path for their individual experience level, and they are learning theory and enjoying playing the piano. They go to the piano on their own to practice their pieces (albeit sometimes they don't practice long enough or carefully enough), and they have made good progress. 

Sharon is really great at encouraging and motivating the kids to put in the effort so they will get more out of it, and it is definitely working. I can see them spending time at the piano working things out, helping each other with reminders. They are within the same grade level, and so hearing each other playing the same songs is kind of a plus right now. They also encourage each other at home more now, and listen to each other play. I see them developing more of an affection for the piano, as well as more self-discipline, which is wonderful.

Sharon is exemplary in her professionalism and teaching ability, with a very calming and caring nature. She is a great role model for the kids. We hope to keep Sharon as the kids' piano instructor for many, many years to come.

“Knowledgeable and Patient.”

Sharon is very knowledgeable about piano and patient to teach my 8yr old daughter about many aspects of piano playing, including basic skills, theory, as well as practicing methods. My daughter is very comfortable with learning from Sharon, and looks forward to her class every week. Both her interest and skills have improved after learning from Sharon.

“Talented Piano Teacher!”

Sharon is a talented piano teacher, who is currently pursuing her doctorate in Piano and recently moved to the South Bay. She focuses her teaching both on theory and practice. 

After more than five years with the previous teacher, we were seeking to find a teacher that could take our daughters' skills to the next level. We're glad that we found her. She sets a high standard and inspires my daughters to improve their skills as well as practice hard.

“7 Years of Learning”

My son has been learning from Dr. Sharon since he was 10 years old. Over the past 7 years I’m so grateful we met Dr. Sharon that made my son’s piano journey much easier. Sharon is such a professional and meticulous teacher. She knows how to tailor the lessons according to the different students and guide them to the piano world.

When students encounter challenges and difficulties in learning to play the piano, she provides them with professional support and confidence while also understanding the struggles they face in their growth. She patiently supports and accompanies them on their musical journey.

Sharon also very emphasizes performing in public. I really appreciate her creating recital opportunities and master classes every year to encourage student to build their confidence. My son has benefit a lot through these experiences.
My son has grown tremendously from the first day learning with Sharon, he has won many piano contests prizes and achieved CM level 6-10 state honor. I highly recommend Dr. Sharon to any piano learners looking for top-tier piano teacher. Whether you are a beginner or advanced student. You will find a professional enjoyable and enriching experience.

“Started at Age of Five”

My daughter embarked on her musical journey with Dr. Sharon Wu at the tender age of five, and for nearly four years, it has been an absolute pleasure. Dr. Wu's patience is boundless; she consistently provides meticulous guidance and clear instructions that make learning both enjoyable and effective. My daughter has developed a deep fondness for Dr. Wu, and it is with a heavy heart that we bid farewell due to her recent relocation from the South Bay. We will deeply miss the opportunity to continue learning from such a dedicated teacher.

“非常感谢你”

非常感谢你给Aaron的反馈和支持，这对他是极大的引领和帮助。

Aaron的这次反复我们也一直在观察和参与，他每天的练习坚持得不错，录像当天Beethoven sonata 录了一个半小时都不满意，他感到非常挫败和失意，饭都吃不下去。——很感谢你既给了他时间也不允许他放弃，而所幸经过两天的调整他也能更放松地完成有进步的录制。而你这封信，更是让我非常感动：你说的没错，这不仅仅是钢琴技巧的问题，如何在有压力的情况下达到优秀的表现，是更有价值的练习和收获！

非常感谢你的这封邮件，你所教给他的不仅仅是钢琴，更是成长的力量！能遇到你这位老师，真是Aaron的幸运！

祝圣诞快乐！

“Really Glad We Met Her.”

My son started taking lessons with Ms. Sharon about four months ago. I was searching for a piano teacher with classical background because I know that classical background is very important in basics of piano. I was looking for a serious teacher who was able to keep my son focused and learn well because I want piano to be a big part of my son. Sharon not only can keep my son, who is only 7, focused for 60 minutes, but he is truly enjoying his time with her. He loves taking lessons with her, enjoys practicing at home, and eager to go back to the lesson every week. I thought, at first, 60 minute lesson may be too long for 7 year old boy. However, Sharon keeps him interested, and he is learning basics of piano very well. I searched for a good piano teacher for almost a year, and I am very glad that we met Ms. Sharon.

“A Kind and Encouraging Manner.”

My 8 year old is so happy to be taking lessons from Sharon Wu! Ms. Wu is a true professional: in addition to her top qualifications, she has high expectations for her students and a genuine interest in their learning. She also has a kind and encouraging manner. Highly recommended!!

“Patient and Rigourous!”

Sharon is very patient and at the same time rigorous about getting every single detail right. She has been very helpful in revising different concepts when I first learnt playing piano many years ago, as well as teaching various piano techniques that I didn't realize was important for the long term, especially guiding me how to fix my hand posture. Thanks Sharon!"
