Welcome to the web-home of Upbeat Music Studios. The purposes of this site are: 1. To enhance the communication between the teacher and the student's families; 2. To introduce supplementary material for students to study without taking extra time off the already-tight lessons; 3. To open a window for friends who are interested in my teaching and studios. This site is still under construction. Please come back often and find out what’s new here. If you have any ideas or suggestions about how to improve this site, I will be very appreciative to hear from you. Click here to send me an e-mail. |
