For immediate release 28th May 2013 JEMS Learning House Photos: http://www.seedland.hk/press/jem/28may2013/ Renowned as the expert of Character Education for children up to the age of 12, JEMS Learning House launches new programmes this summer in partnership with Dr. Connie Wong, renowned pianist and music educator. Based on the U.S. Character Classics curriculum, the values-based music programmes teach children important values such as honesty and perseverance through matching meaningful lyrics to classical music. The Summer Music Programmes will be jointly conducted by Ms Christine Ma, Founder and Principal of JEMS Learning House, and Dr. Connie Wong, who will lead children from 4 to 8 to explore and learn to appreciate classical music, learn about composers and their work, as well as essential life values. Despite her congenital deficiency, Dr. Wong graduated at the Chinese University of Hong Kong in music. Then she earned her M.A. and Ph.D in ethnomusicology from the University of California, Los Angeles. She is currently teaching world music seminars and courses in various tertiary institutions. Dr. Wong is also a winner of the Top Ten Outstanding Young Persons of Hong Kong in 2010. The Summer Music Programmes feature two 3-day programmes. Through the M1: Honesty programme for children aged 4 to 5, students will learn about Johann Strauss Jr. and his famous Blue Danube Waltz. Set to this musical number is “Tell the Truth”, a song about the importance of being honest. In the M2: Perseverance programme for children aged 6 to 8, Dr. Wong will share her personal experiences about the importance of perseverance and inspire students to apply perseverance in everyday life. The students will learn about Johannes Brahms and Robert Schumann and their exemplary work. Set to the musical pieces by these composers are songs about perseverance. Ms Christine Ma, Principal of JEMS Learning House says, “The new values-based music curriculum is our first programme combining character education and classical music. Based on the Character Classics curriculum from the U.S. with modifications, students not only enjoy discovering the beauty of the melody but learn the importance of being honest through creative lyrics. They also learn perseverance from the sharing of a wonderful role model, Dr. Connie Wong.” About JEMS Released by: Media Enquiries:
