Chinese Lessons! University of Toronto Graduate, born in Taiwan teaching in Toronto

He is a detailed teacher. He is very responsible and hardworking.

Austin is a natural instinctive musician with an openness to knowing himself and finding his own best approach to making music on the cello. He transmits this openness in his teaching through patience and a calm persistence to see his students progress through to their goals.

Mr. Chao's qualifications of graduating from world-class Mannes School of Music for Cello, along with having an ARCT for flute and piano, makes him not only a fantastic cellist but also a music interpreter. I have personally seen Mr. Chao's unique approach and outstanding interaction with students from school-age to young professionals looking to seeking music as a career. As an music teacher myself, I have made many recommendations to go see Mr. Chao for lessons and have witnessed fantastic progress from my students in a reasonable time span.

Austin is definitely the best cello teacher you could have! He is motivated, humorous and professional! If you're looking for fun cello lessons, I Highly recommended him as your first choice!!

“Dedicated yet passionate in his field, Austin enjoys sharing the joy of music and working with students to thrive at achieving an exceptional standard and developing one’s mindset at high level of discipline.”
