Accredited Teaching member of WAMTA*

Grace Je was born in a musical family where her father was a conductor of a church choir and her mother played the chromaharp and harmonica in a church ensemble. From a young age, Grace loved music and frequently participated in many musical events as well as competitions in piano and voice sections. In her teen years, she was a leader of her school choir and served her church as a soloist (soprano) and an accompanist (piano). 

Having decided not to pursue music as a career, she took a master's degree in linguistics and graduated with merits after she earned a bachelor's degree in education on scholarships. She worked as a teacher and academic staff in a public school and a university as well as in private practice for many years. 

Before long, she refound her love and passion for music and realised how great it would be to study, play and teach music. It was a turning point of her career. She started to receive piano lessons again from renowned teachers in Perth who later became her role models. She vigorously fed herself with intensive study in music theory and devoted a significant amount of time to developing technical skills. As a result, she achieved a diploma in instrumental teaching with ABRSM** and a licentiate diploma and an associate diploma in musicology with AMEB***.

She is an accompanist at her church and an accredited teaching member of WAMTA. She believes that a great teacher should be a voracious learner as well, so she continuously develops herself as a professional teacher by actively attending seminars, forums, and concerts while maintaining a busy teaching schedule. Grace is specialising in teaching piano music in various areas (in all levels and grades) including music theory, aural development, sight-reading, musicology and performance practice.
