Harp Lessons Online
Harp lessons online with world class professional harpist
Hello fellow harpists! Online lessons allow the student to be on their own instrument and in their own environment. I have had great results with this method with both children and adults. In person lessons are still important for certain aspects of teaching however music lessons online provide many benefits for the student.
Over my career I have gained extensive experience that I can share with you. My recordings have received world wide critical acclaim, a JUNO award nomination for solo classical album of the year and apple music top listing feature on the harp. I have toured extensively as a soloist and in ensemble. As a teacher I have stared and trained many of Canada's exceptional harpists.
Since I have offered online lessons students have come to me from Europe, United States and Asia.
I can assist you with your development on the harp weather you are a young student starting out, an adult wanting to fulfill their dream of playing the harp, or an advanced performer wanting to develop and new program, prepare for audition or take your performance to the next level.
Lessons are in English or French. I invite you to read my full biography and listen to my recordings and videos that can be accessed by the buttons at the top of the page. I look forward to hearing from you!

Caroline 是一個專業的豎琴老師，雖然我們是用線上形式上課，但她的專業能力無阻她的教學，她能清晰地指導我音準、拍子、音色、踏板轉換。在她的指導下，我覺得自己在手指靈活性上有進步，而且對於樂曲有新的領悟。她亦會按我的能力及強項揀選樂曲。
另外，Caroline是一個十分親切的人，跟她上堂十分愉快，既有明確的目標追求，但不會有很大壓力，加上老師是十分具鼓勵性，所以我是十分開心在豎琴學習上有Caroline的指導。Leung from Hong Kong
Translation - Caroline is a professional harp teacher. Although we take classes online this does not hinder her teaching. She can clearly guide me in pitch, time, timbre, and pedal switching. Under her guidance, I feel that I have improved my finger flexibility and gained a new understanding of music. She also chooses music based on my abilities and strengths.
In addition, Caroline is a very kind person, and it is very pleasant to attend class with her. She has clear goals to pursue, but there is not a lot of pressure. In addition, the teacher is very encouraging, so I am very happy to learn the harp. Caroline's guidance.
All levels
I am an accomplished performer, recording artist and teacher however I do not limit myself to working with the advanced. Everyone begins somewhere no matter where they finish.
For those interested in advancing themselves on the instrument it is important to start out with strong technique and musicality as correcting later can be difficult and time consuming.
I have started many students that have gone on to become accomplished performers.
I have many adult students that just want to enjoy the music and develop at their own pace.

Customized program
Over my career I have continually expanded my repertoire by performance and recording. I have extensive experience in:
- Chamber performance with numerous instruments and ensemble formats
- Vocal soloists
- Choral programs including John Rutter Dancing Day
- Solo harp - with numerous programs - solo recording in French, Italian, and Canadian repertoire

Lessons with your ensemble partner or group is now facilitated by the virtual format.
Coaching of duo or ensemble can have logistical challenges that virtual format alleviates.
I can work with you on repertoire selection or programming options.

In person lessons have historically employed verbal feedback.
With the virtual format there are new options including:
- Video feedback on specific technique items
Sharing video and audio file between myself and the student
- Highlighted markings on music via transfer
Reinforcement of lesson details
- Virtual concerts
I have regular group virtual concerts with my students
