"I am incredibly grateful for the friendships I have formed with my former students and their families in the Tri-Valley area. Through working with them, I have learned to become a better teacher, musician, and person. I cherish many fond memories of my time with them, not just the beautiful sound they created on my piano. I truly miss all of them." - Yu-Ting Chen
“Dr. Chen is a phenomenal teacher — I started taking lessons with her at just 4 years old, and having studied with her for 14 years, I can confidently say that every single lesson has been a joy. The love of music that she instilled in me has greatly shaped my life as well as my creativity, and I continued studying piano throughout my college years. She truly understands what it takes for each student to master the piano in their own unique way, and brings out a love for the piano in every single one. Her students have won awards at music competitions both regionally and nationally, gone on to study piano at prestigious universities, and performed in festivals and concert halls across the US and abroad. Even more importantly, as a person, she is caring and thoughtful, and deeply cares for every one of her students. If you are looking for a piano teacher who is patient, inspiring, and intuitive, I would highly recommend Dr. Yu-Ting Chen!“ - F. T.
“Ms. Chen was the best piano teacher I ever had. Along with guiding my immersion in classical piano, reminding me to care for the small details while not forgetting the overall flows, she did this with accessible analogies and kind patience. My appreciation for music would not be nearly as strong without the experience I got from those lessons.” - E. Y.
“Ms. Chen taught me piano from the age of 6 (until my graduation out of high school) and under her teaching, I was able to flourish and learn so much both technically and artistically. Each one of the weekly piano lessons I had with Ms. Chen taught me something new and helped me improve little by little. She is not only extremely patient, detailed, and caring, but she is also exceptionally talented in guiding her students to excel in the CM program and piano competitions. Under her tutelage, I won numerous piano competitions and was even invited to perform at Carnegie Hall. Overall, I couldn't imagine a better piano teacher than Ms. Chen, and the time I spent with her are some of the most rewarding and happiest experiences of my
life." - J. J.

“ I would like to highly recommend Dr. Yu-Ting Chen to you as a piano teacher for your children. Yu-Ting is a gifted pianist and music educator. She is very well-respected in Tri-Valley area communities and had provided the piano lessons for two decades until her family moved out this area recently. We, as parents, are extremely fortunate to have a piano teacher of her caliber to teach the children in the area.
Yu-Ting is absolutely passionate about music. Her love for the art is evident in her enthusiastic and energetic teaching techniques. She is exceedingly patient with all students, encourages them and coaxes the very best effort from each and every one. Both my daughter and my son had taken piano lessons from Yu-Ting since age 6 until they went to college. They enjoyed this wonderful music journal very much, and benefited greatly from what they learned from Yu-Ting.
It is my great pleasure to recommend Yu-Ting to you as a piano teacher for your children. I am tremendously grateful to her for everything she has taught my children and the joy the recitals and music events she had hosted has brought to my family.” - Q.
