Learn or level up your cello skills with a patient, knowledgeable, and spirited instructor! ✨
Experienced teacher of 11+ years eager to teach you cello in relaxed, fun and most certainly encouraging atmosphere! No matter the age or level you are, it is never too late to start something new, pick up an old hobby or polish up existing cello skills!
Teaching an "art" is an art in itself. Therefore I customize my teaching style to each student individually. The same approach does not work for everyone. I strongly believe in that. That is also why I get to know my students, and build a personal relationship with them, to further help them demystify the wonders of the cello. ✨🎻✨
In lessons with me you will not only learn the strong foundation of note reading, music theory, and ear training but will also learn the proper technique for playing the cello, tricks and mind hacks for quicker learning and overcoming challenges, as well as fun and helpful facts about music, and the cello.
You're invited to join me in the joy of playing the cello!

About Jessica B.
4.7
(17)
My name is Jess and I am a fun, kind, loving and patient cello instructor.
I was raised in Poland and that is where I first started playing the cello. I moved to the United States in 2008, and since then I studied cello at the Music Institute of Chicago "The Academy program" with Hans Jørgen Jensen, and at the Oberlin Music Conservatory with Amir Eldan.
I have great interpersonal skills, and a gift of connecting with people that helps me individualize my teaching approach.
I am also interested in using music for therapy and healing, and making it accessible to everyone.
BONUS perk* You can take lessons with me at the comfort of your own home and get better at cello in no time!
