Rebekah is a Kiwi-Korean pianist who can teach piano both in
English and Korean. She started learning piano at the age of
three and her whole family immigrated to NZ in 2000.
In past years, she held lots of concerts and won several competitions in
South Korea, Auckland, and the US (Texas). She has also performed
numerous concertos with an orchestra in South Korea and the US.
Rebekah has a Bachelor of Music (with Honours) degree, with a major in Performance at the University of Auckland.
In 2012, Rebekah flew to Melbourne to complete her course in Master of Music Therapy at the University of Melbourne. She is now a qualified Music Therapist (RMT) who can teach people with special needs. In Melbourne, she was a contracted piano teacher at a Music School in Eastern Suburb and taught in 3 affiliated primary schools during the daytime, as well as teaching at a Music School after school hours. Each year, she organised a number of music events at primary schools and charity concerts.
After she got back to Auckland in 2016 to raise a family, Rebekah created the Cherry Piano Studio where she taught students to learn piano at her home studio in Epsom. Each year she held student concerts and visited rest homes with students to share the joy of music with the broader community. Her passion for teaching piano continued to grow and she opened Cherry Piano Studio in Mt Eden in early 2018.
Together with her musically talented husband David and with a fantastic team, Cherry Piano studio has grown to Cherry Music Studio in 2019, providing piano, violin, guitar, ukulele, and cello lessons to children to adults at any level.
Rebekah and David share the same vision - Let our students enjoy learning music and share the joy of music with the broader community. Cherry Music Studio will ensure the best quality music lesson for each of our students and tailor each student's needs and strengths.
