About
Ms Isabel is a full-time private violin teacher with over 11 years of teaching experience, for kids and adult students age range from 3 to 60 years old.
She has previously conducted violin and music lessons at MOE secondary schools and preschools as an enrichment partner, and also an instructor for her orchestra. Outside of teaching, she’s also an accomplished violinist for concerts and music festivals.
Since the age of 5, she has been taught by the father of the current SSO President, Mr Kong Zhao Hui. She was also the first violin in Singapore National Youth Orchestra (SNYO) during teen years. As a firm believer of prioritising education over grades, Ms Isabel completed her Grade 8 Violin, her one and only exam, in one attempt, and continue to upgrade her knowledge and technique in violin playing by studying with the Head of Strings from Yong Siew Toh Conservatory.
Under her guidance, her students have successfully enrolled in conservatories both locally and internationally. She has also helped students in the Music Elective Program (MEP).
Besides teaching, Ms Isabel also create opportunities for her students to perform and showcase their music with others publicly. In 2017, she performed with her students at the Old Parliament House, and at Changi Airport Terminal 3 in 2019.
One of their performances at Pacific Healthcare Nursing Home was featured by local Chinese student papers Lianhe Zaobao, 联合早报.
Ms Isabel believes every student has their unique strengths and hidden potential waiting to be uncovered. She will do her best to identify and bring out the best in every student.
