| 1) What motivates you to work with international students? |
| I look forward to meeting the international students and sharing about music, experiences, and culture. I always try to make activities fun and explore new songs to play. It makes me happy to work with them. |
| 2) What are two specific highlights of your training or education that you are most proud of — and that are most applicable to your teaching role at ISB? |
| I graduated with a bachelor’s degree and a major in anthropology, learning about societies and cultures, understanding different thought. I was able to see different places and understand the behavior of people in unique places. So I feel that when I work with students, I sincerely understand them.
Because music was so important in my life, I decided to continue my studies with a fine arts master’s degree in music. I learned the piano with many dedicated teachers, who understood me and pushed me. I can play classical, pop, and jazz, which gives me the ability to teach students to play the piano with different styles. I have been teaching piano for 15 years. |
| 3) Where have you lived most of your life? If not in Thailand, what brought you here? |
| I was born and raised in Thailand. |
| 4) Have you worked with students before in preparation for their taking music exams? |
| Yes. I have prepared students for both practical and music theory exams. |
