• Dr. Hye-Won Cho's Piano Studio Application

  • I'm so glad you're taking this step to not only further your pianistic skills, but your personal growth. Because my teaching philosophy and style are different from those of a typical piano studio, my teaching will help and be suitable for those students and families who share this philosophy.

    As a result, I am providing this teaching to a very limited number of students so that I can fully devote my time to each student. Therefore, submitting this application form does not guarantee placement, and there will be an evaluation process for final selection.

    Before you begin, make sure you have two audition pieces (two contrasting pieces) prepared to upload (videos files only - mp4, wmv, mpg, flv, avi, mkv). If you are unable to upload any pieces, please contact me at hyewon.cho@gmail.com to discuss other options.

  • Reminder about the student selection process

    What to expect after submitting this application:

    1. I will have a conversation with the applicants via phone regarding their thoughts on musical education and what they seek in a teacher.
    2. We will set up an in-person interview, audition, and 30-minute trial lesson (free of charge). This is to see if I would be the right teacher for the student and NOT to evaluate the student’s skills. It is also a chance for applicants to see if we would be a right fit.
    3. I will be sending feedback/comments via email to all students who audition along with my thoughts as to whether or not I am the right teacher for the student. Based on the audition, I would also be happy to recommend a list of others teachers.
    4. After reviewing my comments, the student (and parents, if applicable) can decide whether or not to join my studio.
