Cello Teaching
I have taught cellists of all ages and believe anyone at any age is capable of learning the cello. As a teacher, I adjust every lesson to fit each student’s needs at the time. Lessons are fun and challenging. I offer 30-minute, 45-minute, and one hour lessons, both over the internet and face-to-face. I will often pair younger students with a method book and other supplementary materials. More advanced students may choose to focus on specific repertoire.
I encourage my students to spearhead their learning and to be inquisitive problem-solvers. My students will not only strive for technical mastery of the instrument, but also to craft their own musical voice. In addition, I utilize many Alexander Technique principles in my cello teaching. My students should not only be wonderful cellists, but also be able to play with freedom and without pain. I also teach music theory, ear training, and improvisation. At whatever age or skill level, my students will come away with a passion for the cello and classical music.
