TESTIMONIALS

*Many of Ling Ling’s students have been accepted to NYU, Juilliard pre-college, Manhattan School of Music, Melbourne Conservatorium, Scholarship programs, Summer festivals and Competitions.

Ling Ling was such a patient, enthusiastic and knowledgeable piano teacher. I was a beginner and she was so thorough on our lesson plan together. She would always check up on how I felt too which made the lessons personable. She really pushed me to improve myself. At the end of each session, she was always incredibly encouraging but also gave me some tough love when I was losing track of my progress. I would recommend Ling Ling to any friend or acquaintance.

I am SO extremely grateful to my wonderful teacher, Ling Ling Chen, for putting up with me, even throughout a pandemic. This exam meant a lot to me, one reason being that a former piano teacher (not trying to badmouth) had assured me that there’s a snowball’s chance in hell of me passing, when I was about 15 years old. I know it’s been just over a decade, and I’ve matured a lot, and I absolutely know that I will continue to work on music even when my primary career is very far removed from it.
Bonus: I played a piece that aforementioned teacher gave up on teaching me 20 minutes into our lesson!

I already had some foundations on basic piano playing when I came to Ling Ling and she really listened to my needs from the very first lesson. She was able to adapt to my wants and goals, we identified what my weaknesses were and began to work on them immediately. Not only is she patient and kind but we’ve had a lot of laughs together as well. Her realism and straightforwardness was refreshing and what I love about her is how she creates a genuine relationship with her students. We still keep in contact to this day. I can’t recommend Ling Ling enough!

Lucy has ADHD and is on the autism spectrum. I was looking for a new teacher that was able to be patient and understanding somewhere in Brooklyn and found Ling Ling. Not only was she patient but incredibly warm and compassionate. Lucy has difficulties listening and focusing but Ling Ling was always really quick to discuss a lesson plan, solution and the next steps to helping her concentrate. We basically became family.
