About Hallie
Hello there! Do you or your loved ones have an interest in music? So do I! That is why I am here to teach and share my own passion for music. I love working with children and have two boys of my own. I love teaching music and instil passion for learning into every one of my students.
Having grown up in a musical family with my mother a professional violinist, I have been exposed to the joys of music since childhood. I learned how to play Suzuki piano at the age of three, and later percussion and string instruments from when I was six years old. In high school I joined the band playing flute. I loved playing flute and piccolo so much that I decided to take this as my career and went to Interlochen Arts Academy where I excelled in my performance. I later went to Prague Conservatory and Czech Budweiss Conservatory and played with the

I later went to Prague Conservatory and Czech Budweiss Conservatory and played with the
Prague Film Orchestra. Even more recently I have been a teacher for the Flutes and Strings classes at Unison World School in Dehradun, India.
I have enjoyed having a very successful studio here in Tampa, and hope to enrich your life with music soon!
*** Lesson Details ***
My approach to teaching varies with the age level of each student. With younger students, imitation is often one of the best methods of learning and I prefer the Suzuki method for students up to age 8, especially with strings. For older children and adults, learning music notation and basic music theory for a full understanding of musical language are more important to get them to the level where they can learn any music that they want to play for fun. For students who wish to excel in their school band, a more practical approach with technique specific warm-ups and exercises seems to be the best in general.
*** Studio Equipment ***
The In-Studio lessons are taught in the living room which includes music stands, sheet music, whiteboard, video recording equipment and microphone, and seating for parents/students. No pets. Parking in driveway. Siblings are welcome.
*** Travel Equipment ***
I will provide metronome, and tools for minor instrument repair. Students should provide their own music stands and sheet music.
*** Specialties ***
Suzuki method, Hrimaly, Taffanel et Gaubert, Patricia George

ally, lessons consist of a warm up with scale-arpeggio and warm-up exercise. After a warm-up, my students' focus on a specific piece of repertoire that pin-points a certain technique . Once I think the student has progressed through and mastered a specific piece to their level, we move on to more challenging repertoire learning new technical concepts and ideas. Lessons are a great way to help you progress much faster at the cello!

About Angela C.
Close
Music has been my passion my entire life. Through lessons with me, students will develop not only a love for music, but the skill to create it. I aim to foster an environment where students feel safe to continuously challenge themselves, knowing mistakes will happen. Students learn more than the notes, they learn to breathe life into them. All I require is a cello, rosin (dark rosin is my personal preference), a music stand, and a willingness to learn. Contact me and we'll make music together :)
About Angela
Music is a universal language, one that can evoke powerful memories, ideas, beliefs, and emotions without the use of a single word. Learning to play an instrument allows you to sharpen your coordination and math skills, fosters your perseverance and sense of responsibility, and relieves stress. I consider it a privilege each time I pick up my instrument and create something beautiful, whether it's just for me or for an audience. And I consider it an even greater privilege to get to share this ability with others.
My teaching style differs based on the needs and goals of each student. For younger students, I incorporate games into the lessons that assist in posture and technique. I also like to set up reward systems for students to encourage practice time. For adult learners, we can work together to establish a pace that you are comfort
