    (Miss Polly Fang)

    Zither Tree, derived from a poem by the Tang dynasty poet — Bai Juyi:
    The wood of the Shu tree is solid, the sound of the Chu silk is clear. Play slowly and gently, ten notes in the deep night.
    Entering the ear is bland and tasteless, but it brings joy to the heart. Play on your own and stop on your own, you don’t need anyone to listen.

    Silk is the string of the guzheng;
    Wood is the body of the instrument;
    Tree refers to you who are present.

    Miss Fang started learning the guzheng at eight, mentored by teacher Wu Xiaohong, and obtained performance levels from the Central Conservatory of Music and Shanghai Conservatory of Music. In 2022, she founded "Zither Tree" to promote Chinese music culture, inherit the classical beauty of the guzheng, and hopes that everyone can express themselves through music and feel the joy brought by each note. Last year, Zither Tree co-organized the "Back to Simplicity – Guzheng Research Sleepover Project (Season One)" with the Jao Tsung-I Academy, which received a warm response, and the concert was thrilling.

    During her studies, Miss Fang participated in inter-school music festivals multiple times, achieving outstanding results, including second place in the enhancement group, third place in the advanced group, second place in the intermediate group, and first place in the beginner group. Over the years, she has also participated in many public performances, formerly a member of the Hong Kong Children's Guzheng Group, performing at venues such as district council events and Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront. After growing up, she also served as a guzheng musician for a Chinese orchestra and was a member of the Wu Xiaohong Guzheng Art Group, performing multiple times at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre and various community events, gaining rich performance experience.

    Miss Fang has over ten years of teaching experience and has even traveled to Tibet to serve as a guzheng instructor. She is currently a guzheng instructor at several secondary schools and music stores. Her students have also achieved impressive results in guzheng exams, often winning championships, second, and third places in public competitions.

    Types of Guzheng Lessons – Beginner Training / Graded Exam Courses / Traditional Repertoire / Performance Coaching / Online Guzheng Lessons / Ensemble & Duet Sessions

    The guzheng is one of the most iconic instruments in Chinese music, known for its lyrical melodies, expressive vibrato, and poetic charm. Its unique timbre can evoke flowing rivers or distant mountains. In Hong Kong, guzheng lessons are increasingly popular among both youth and adults seeking to deepen their connection to culture, build musical skills, or prepare for graded exams.

    Need a Guzheng Teacher or Beginner-Friendly Class?

    Toby connects you with verified guzheng instructors who offer private, group, and online classes. Lessons are available in Cantonese, Mandarin, or English, and are tailored for all levels—from absolute beginners to students preparing for formal performance or conservatory entry. You can select by teaching style, availability, and location.

    Pricing varies based on the tutor’s experience, lesson duration, and whether you choose home visits, in-studio classes, or online sessions.

    What Do Guzheng Lessons Cover?

    Beginner lessons start with finger posture, plucking techniques, tuning, and basic rhythms. You’ll quickly move into traditional pieces and Chinese folk songs. Intermediate and advanced students develop skills like glissando, tremolo, harmonics, and complex phrasing. Lessons may also include music theory and stage performance preparation for exams or recitals.

    Why Choose Guzheng Tutors from Toby?

    Toby’s listed tutors are identity-verified and reviewed by real students. Many have degrees from music conservatories, experience in performance, and a structured approach to teaching. With flexible scheduling and transparent pricing, you can easily compare multiple instructors to find the best fit for your learning style.

    How Long Does It Take to Learn Guzheng?

    Most beginners can play basic songs within 2–3 months. Progressing through the grading system, such as Chinese Music Grade Exams, typically takes 6 months to 1 year per level. With consistent practice and guided instruction, students can advance to complex pieces and solo performances.

    Why Are Some Guzheng Lessons More Expensive?

    Tutors with formal training, extensive stage experience, or bilingual teaching capabilities may charge higher fees. Private in-home sessions and customized exam preparation also add to the cost due to convenience and personalization.

    How to Choose the Right Guzheng Teacher?

    Use Toby to explore profiles based on musical background, teaching experience, and student reviews. Whether you want to play for leisure, pursue exams, or join an ensemble, you can filter instructors by level, location, and teaching language. Some also offer free trial lessons.

    Why Learn Guzheng with a Professional Teacher?

    The guzheng involves specialized techniques that require correct guidance. Self-learning may lead to improper form or confusion about rhythm and interpretation. A professional tutor helps you build confidence, technique, and musical expression—all while fostering appreciation for traditional music.


    Can children learn guzheng?

    Yes. Many children start around age 5–6, and lessons are often adapted for attention span and finger strength.

    Do I need to buy a guzheng before starting?

    Not necessarily. Some tutors can lend instruments or guide you in choosing a quality beginner guzheng before purchasing.
