Hello, I'm Lulu.
My name is Lu He (Ms. Lulu), and I hold two bachelor's degrees in preschool education with a focus on music—earned in China and Denmark. My musical journey began at the age of four, and I have been teaching piano professionally since 2012.
With over a decade of experience, I have had the privilege of teaching more than 1,000 children from diverse cultural backgrounds. Most of my students range from 3 to 17 years old, and I specialize in providing developmentally appropriate, engaging, and effective piano instruction.
Currently, my studio serves more than 200 students, offering both Group Piano Lessons and Private Lessons. Our Group Piano Lesson program, particularly popular among preschoolers, enables children to begin learning an instrument as early as three years old—earlier than the traditional starting age of five or six. We also offer Elementary Duet Lessons (two children, four hands), fostering collaboration and fun in a structured learning environment. I strongly believe that early music education is a valuable investment in a child’s future, laying the foundation for lifelong skills and creativity. My mission is to inspire young learners through the joy of music and to nurture their growth with care and expertise.
