Teacher Betty Wu is delighted to join Mo Music where she will continue to grow her passion for working with children, for singing, and for playing the keyboard. She has fostered a love of music since childhood, having sung in choirs and played piano from second grade forward. As an adult, she has been a member of the Peninsula Women’s Chorus and the ChingChing Choir and has studied voice privately. Betty’s music work with children is extensive. She is trained in both Kodaly (the Hungarian singing pedagogy) and the Orff method (a Germanic music education approach). In recent years she has taught music classes to first graders, conducted and accompanied for a children’s chorus, and assisted in an Orff music class for preschoolers. Prior to becoming a music professional, she had a successful career with the software companies Oracle and Siebel. She also worked as a high school math tutor, personal/workspace organizer, and as a life coach wherein she helped individuals resolve work/life issues. Betty’s diverse professional history, musical and otherwise, makes her a special addition to our circle of teachers.
