Cello Lessons Collin-Rockwall County, TX

Instruments: Violin, Cello, Viola, Electric Violin, Double Bass, Music

I only want my students to have a positive experience when leaving our lesson. I am constantly letting them know what they've done well, along with what goals we need to work on. I focus on the sandwich method, which is one positive trait, something to work on, then another positive trait. Everyone is different, so their learning pace is different as well. I do expect them to put at least some effort in at home via practicing (although I know things come up sometimes), otherwise it would be hard to find progress when they haven't practiced what we were working on.

I teach each student different. Depending on the students level, pace , knowledge, strength, abilities , determination and goals.
