All Styles, All Levels! Emphasis on drawing a good tone, and efficient technique to allow for greater ease in playing!

Hi, My name is Geoff and I' m here to teach you the Cello. I offer Technical studies, Solo pieces, NYSSMA, Scales and Arpeggios, Bow Technique, Symphony Repertoire, School Orchestra and other ensemble work and Reading skills. My students do great at NYSSMA, All County as well as LI String Festival. What I teach you, you' ll take with you for ever. Let' s get playing!

The cello is one of the most beautiful instruments! Experts say it has the closest sound to the human voice.

The student will be instructed on the basics of proper playing techniques, music theory, and musicianship. They will learn to read music and also play by ear which will make them a well rounded player.

I am offering cello lessons for beginning, intermediate, and advanced students in the New York area! My rates are relatively cheap, and my lessons can range from 30-90 minutes.I am capable of working with all ages. I would prefer if lessons were held at my school, but I am willing to travel to you if preferred. I am passionate about teaching and sharing my love of music with others. I believe that teaching music is such an amazing way of connecting with others.

I have six years' professional experience teaching privately, and I specialize in Classical, Jazz, and Popular styles. I use a patient approach to accommodate each student's unique learning styles, challenges, and interests. While each student will have a personalized experience, all the necessary fundamentals will be covered, including technique, note reading, music theory, and ear training. Send me a message letting me know what your goals are. I can't wait to make music with you!

I focus on teaching students the overall musical ideas as well as specific necessary skills needed to portray the musical ideas. Eat Training, music theory and analyzes are also a subject of my discussions with the students, since it is necessary to understand the meaning of the piece and the idea of the composer. Combining Russian, American and French schools of music learnings, I try to provide students with the most well-rounded musical education.

Many years of experience teaching privately, along with experience teaching in an elementary school for several years! I've taught many levels of experience, mostly beginners, helping them start out and develop over the years, but I've also taught intermediate and advanced students. I incorporate theory, ear and rhythmic training into my lessons, as there is only so much to improve without the basics of these skills.

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.

I am a passionate and experienced cellist and teacher. I aim for an environment which makes music learning enjoyable to students of all ages. I have traveled worldwide both studying and performing and love assisting students in reaching and exceeding their musical goals. I look forward to meeting you and being a part of growing your love for music and the cello.
