Quyen Nguyen Studio

My daughter has been taking cello lessons from Quyen for several years.
Quyen has been incredibly helpful to her about all aspects of music from her excellent pedagogy and taste in choosing repertoire for students to career advice about being a musician, the real-​life business aspects of a musical career and knowledge about instruments, bows, and locations where you can find trusted sellers.
It is no surprise that my daughter is principal cello in her high school orchestra, and an outstanding student in her music theory classes.
Cultivating musicality in young students new to the technical part of performing music is a huge challenge, but Quyen does this very, very well.
The quality of her student recitals throughout the past several years is a testament to her talent as a superb music teacher.
Not only extremely professional, she is also very well-​connected in the network of Southern California string performers, staying current with new trends in classical music and using this knowledge to teach her students not only the technical aspects of performance, but helping them also develop taste and find their musical style so they can perform with the musicality which distinguishes true performers from merely technical players.
I would not hesitate to suggest her to friends looking for a teacher for their children (I have done so many times) at any level from beginners to advanced performers.
I cannot recommend her highly enough to parents looking for the best string instrument education for their children within San Diego County.

My daughter (now 13) has been taking violin lessons with Quyen for at least seven years. We both feel so fortunate that she has had the benefit of Quyen’s outstanding musical and pedagogical talents. Not everyone with a rare skill also has the patience and insight to teach it, but Quyen seems to care equally about both sides. My daughter has sent several of her string-​playing friends to her as well.

I’ve been a client of Ms Nguyen for several years studying violin and piano. An extraordinary teachers like Quyen are hard to find these days, which is why I feel privileged to have the opportunity to work with her.
Quyen possesses exemplary knowledge on both the physiological and cognitive approaches to studying music. She is quick to assess technical problems with music and offer unique solutions.
I –strongly– recommend Quyen Nguyen for anyone who is ready to achieve their unlimited potentials — whether they are young beginners, advanced performers or adult hobbyists!
