"Looking forward to more lessons!"

Denver, CO teacher: Ted L.

Review by Jill

"My mother, Susan, was my first cello teacher. I started lessons at age 5 and continued studying with her until attending college at the New England Conser

vatory in Boston, MA. It was these early lessons and exposure to my mother's innovative teaching style that ignited my love of music and enabled me to pursue a career as a professional cellist and teacher~ I am grateful for the many doors cello has opened in my life. My mother started the string program in the town I grew up in and within just a few years, a quarter of the entire school was enrolled in the string orchestra! She is a maverick teacher, absolutely one of the best!"

Review by Tova

"Jessica is wonderful! I began studying the cello as a quite older student - in my 50s - and have had a few teachers over these last 15 years. When teach

ing an adult student, the teacher has to understand that our lives, schedules and demands are quite different that those of a young person. Jessica's patience, persistence and genuine good humor in the face of my busy life is beyond admirable. Even though I am quite challenged in finding practice time, she "puts up" with me and my showing up to lessons with minimal preparation. I've accepted that I'm never going to be the great cellist of my dreams, but Jessica is facilitating my learning to enjoy playing this wonderful instrument that I've had a deep love affair with for many years. I can't thank her enough."

I'm an experienced and dedicated cellist, having played with Orchestras and Chamber groups throughout my state. My lessons are focused on relaxation, and am as laid back or strict as the student needs. Whether you're a beginner or advanced, shooting to be a church player or a pro, I have taught students for that and am the teacher for you.

Claire is a very good teacher. Highly recommended. The pacing of the lessons is both challenging and comfortable. I appreciate her demos and duets with me as these help me to practice listening and anticipate playing with others in the future. I've had six 45-minute lessons so far and I feel I've learned a lot and have improved significantly, but I'm also aware of the areas that need improvement. I look forward to continuing to take lessons with Claire.
