Penang-born Jasmine Cheah started her musical journey by learning the violin at the age of 14, under the tutelage of Ms Neah Yuen Sin (a member of Koschka Ensemble). She completed her ABRSM Grade 8 exam, both practical (2014) & theory (2015).

Jasmine obtained her music degree at University Putra Malaysia in 2016. During her 4 years here, she was under the tutelage of Dr Joanne Yeoh, Dr Andrew Filmer, Mr Lau Yew Han & Ms Mabel Wong. She also had the privilege to take a few masterclasses by Dr Goh Chia-Chien. These amazing tutors have greatly inspired her to teach.

Besides violin, she also picked up flute & piccolo as her minor instruments during her studies in UPM, under the tutelage of Dr Jennifer Teng & Foo Chie Haur (National Symphony Orchestra Flute Principal). She used to perform with UPM Symphony Orchestra & once served as flute principal. She performed as flute soloist for MH370 Musical Tribute in Putra Idol 2 Grand Final.

Additionally, she has an interest in psychology & spent her internship working with registered music therapist, Ms Cheryl Mow, assisting & co-conducting both individual & group therapy sessions.

Jasmine’s teaching philosophy is about making learning fun as she strongly believes that students learn best in a positive & encouraging environment. She also understands that every student is different & tailors her teaching methods according to her students’ needs. It is Jasmine’s goal as a teacher to help students appreciate the beauty of music & build their character to become better persons.
