I have had just 3 lessons with Ellen thus far, and am reading sheet music like a wiz and gaining more and more confidence each lesson with my finger placement and now bowing.
Ellen has a wonderful system of teaching that truly makes everything she exposes you to stick, and has been getting me very excited to continue on knowing that I am in good hands and will progress quickly because of it. I will most definitely continue to see Ellen.

children and she has an incredible gift with keeping kids interested and engaged. She helped my figgidity young boy stay focused, often giving him a choice of what he wanted to play next for his level. My son is in 10 th grade and continues to play and wants to study Cello Performance and Music. Both my children play in the Philadelphia Youth Orchestra and in small chamber groups and have reached the Regions and All states level with school.

About CLAIRE C.
Close
As a musician who has taken private lessons from different teachers for over 12 years, I know the importance of having an organized, supportive, and positive teacher that does not overwhelm the student. Lessons will be structured based on specific aims and goals, with an overview of the previous week at the beginning of each lesson and goal-setting at the end of each lesson. It will be fun and engaging, and ultimately increase the student's interest and ability in playing cello!
About CLAIRE
Learning classical music can be hard, and I have first-hand experience in feeling the frustrations and pressure of not improving. I believe the teacher makes a huge impact on whether the student continues to persevere through the struggles or gives up and loses their interest in the instrument. My experience studying under private music teachers for both cello and piano gives me a unique perspective on what works and what doesn't. I like to get to know the student and set goals toget
I look forward to meeting you and helping you to become a better musician!

About Eva S.

Making music is an experience of joy! Lessons should help you achieve your musical goals; getting you there is what I love to do. During your lesson you will receive instruction on all the things that make a well rounded cellist. Posture, technique, repertoire, musical theory, improvisation, musicality, and musical appreciation all come together in each lesson to help you improve and learn quickly and efficiently. Don't worry, all these things can be accomplished with a healthy dose of fun while learning and practicing. I particularly enjoy tailoring lessons to a student's needs based on playing level, learning style, and desired musical outcomes. Let's share the joy of music together while making strides toward your goals!
About Eva
I started college at Millikin University in Decatur, IL as a cello performance major with a large musical scholarship. During that time, I discovered I was as passionate about teaching as I was about playing so I transferred to Mayville State University in North Dakota and graduated summa cum laude with a BS Elementary Education.
I am now the owner of a music studio where children of all ages (starting with newborns) come to take music cl
I love teaching, but I also love performing. I play for live events such as weddings, parties, and other special events, participate in musical educational outreach programs, and have always been a part of a symphony. Here is a list of some of my symphony and performance experience: Oak Park River Forest High School Symphony Orchestra, Alice S. Pfaelzer Conservatory in Chicago, IL, master classes with Chicago Symphony Orchestra members and touring professional cellists including Yo-Yo Ma, Millikin-Decatur Symphony Orchestra,
University of North Dakota Symphony Orchestra, University of Louisiana Orchestra, Lake Charles Symphony Orchestra, and currently the Powder River Symphony Orchestra.

About Naomi R.
Close
Experienced teacher of 3 years with a specialization in beginning/intermediate cello students. Lessons will cater to the needs of each individual student with a focus on a strong technical foundation. As a teacher, I concentrate on engaging students in their learning and aspire to inspire students to discover the joys and benefits of learning music. Not only will students learn to play the cello but they will have instruction in note reading, music theory and ear training. I believe that music should be enjoyable for students and strive to make meaningful connections with my students, positively influencing their musical lives.
About Naomi
For the past three years, I have taught beginning/intermediate cello students. My teaching experiences began at a non-profit community music camp, Music for the Sake of Music, in Green Bay, Wisconsin. During this experience, I found a passion for teaching beginning students because of the fundamental need to provide a solid foundation. These early teaching experiences also inspired my teaching philosophy. Students can expect to focus on technique while simultaneously working on challenging and exciting repertoire. Although ther
I am open to teaching students of all ages and levels, although the majority of my experience is in beginning and intermediate levels. I've studied the cello for 14 years. I have experience in tutoring music theory, sight-ear (ear training), and music history. Also, I have been certified through the National College Learning Center Association, completing training that emphasizes engagement of students. Through this training I've learned how to help students learn independently and overcome challenges through trial and error. In music, these skills foster efficient practice techniques that often lead to a quickly developed technique.
As a performer, I have played in many regional orchestras throughout Indiana such as the Lafayette Symphony Orchestra, Muncie Symphony Orchestra, and Kokomo Symphony Orchestra. I also have experience performing outside of a classical setting, especially in recording. In previous years I have recorded on pop albums for independent artists and composers. My most notable experience includes recording with Tony Award winning actress and singer, Sutton Foster on her newest album Take Me to the World.
Studying music is not about achieving perfection; it is about creativity and joy and obtaining skills that transfer to numerous fields. I look forward to meeting you and helping you develop a wide variety of skills that will enrich many parts of your life.
