Evelyn looks at a situation from the child’s perspective rather than her own. Empathiszing with each chld’s disposition, she adapts her style to bring out the best in each child. Evelyn’s dynamism can be observed in the variety of areas covered each lesson. Aural aspects such as singing and clapping are included instead of confining to practical alone. She acknowledges that aural skills stimulate one’s musical sense. Duet-playing is also practised to increaise the students’ interest and participation. “The whole idea is to make musical learning purposeful and fun,” she explains.

Evelyn’s other interests include travelling to exotic countries such as Egypt and South Africa. She is an avid book lover and enjoys a weekly dip in the pool.
