    About Gillian E.

    4.6
    (3)
    I am 25 years old and I started playing the cello when I was 18 years old. Many people told me I was starting this instrument "too late", but I am here to tell you that is not true. I have been a paid performer for several years now, and I teach full time both privately and in the classroom. I just completed my undergraduate degree at the University of Redlands as a cello performance major. I enjoy teaching people something new. I encourage you to learn a new instrument if that is what you want, because why not? Nothing makes me happier than seeing that I can help another human being. Many of my students advance quickly because I tailor my teaching to each individuals personal needs. Whatever your age or occupation, I believe in you, so let's have fun together!

    Gillian is so personable and patient with students. She understands how to help them master technical skills and her musicianship is top-notch. I highly recommend your young cello student study with Gillian!

    I can say with confidence that after knowing Gillian for about three years, she has the best qualities one can find in a teacher. Gillian's passion for music, her patience, her humor, and her kindness allow students to excel quickly if they are willing to learn. I took a short lesson with her on the basic mechanics of the cello and she was clear with her explanations, gave me constructive criticism if I was doing something wrong while playing, and made the environment very inviting through her positive attitude. She strives to help her students progress and her effort is always apparent. I would definitely recommend her!
