I have had the pleasure of working with Ms. Xiaoqing as her student for a semester. She is an amazing teacher and really helped me understand the basics of the guzheng. She was masterful in her technique, but still student-focused. I can confidently recommend her. Have fun future students!
Xiaoqing is an excellent performer and a gentle teacher of the guzheng. While it is quite a complex instrument, her knowledge and skill allows her to go through the necessary technique required to play it. She is also very kind and understanding, and is a wonderful person to work with!
