A fun easy going learning environment that's filled with knowledge to incorporate as you learn more. In the lesson, you are expected to always listen to your sound because you will begin to understand the note vibration and intervals that make up the components

Get a strong technical foundation. Build your repertoire. Prepare for auditions.

In my lessons, I plan to develop a connection to my students, allow for room to grow and improve as cellists, and to elicit proper playing/performing techniques. Lessons are individualized for every student, as students aren't all equal.

I want to work closely with students to help them develop their own unique pace, methods, and goals that work for them. We’ll work together to not just master their craft, but also find their voice and enjoyment with their instrument.

My goal is to discover what a student wants to learn and their strengths and weaknesses and then cater lessons accordingly.

I'm a student currently studying cello performance at the Eastman School of Music. I've been playing cello for 9 years and have been doing student teaching for about 4 years. I focus on building up great technique in my students, but more importantly, I want to help my students feel more connected to the music they play, and ultimately use their technique to express themselves. The best teachers, for me, don't just teach you how to play the notes, but also how to find your own meaning in the music that you play- no matter the difficulty level of the piece you're playing!

I use the Suzuki method for most beginner/intermediate students, but I'm also sensitive to what the student wants. I'm a firm believer that the student should always enjoy what they are practicing! I want to build up healthy, solid technique in my students, but I encourage my students to find pieces they themselves are interested in! Practicing and learning the cello takes dedication- but it is a deeply gratifying ...

I am a highly skilled player who is passionate about teaching people how to play an instrument that means so much to me. I believe that becoming a musician deeply enriches one’s life (as it has mine) and therefore I strive to teach what ever style a you may wish to learn. I am always learning more Bach and romantic Concertos, but I also play improvisatory styles in folk settings. I am currently in school studying to become a professional cellist under the instruction of a professor who learned from Paul Tortelier himself!

I can help the student practice and learn their way around the cello in an efficient manner. This means that I will be helping with intonation and other technique by giving exercises for the challenging passages. Lessons will be customized according to the goal of the student. Sharing my knowledge in cello and music is a passion and a goal of mine and I would love to help reach your goals.
