Our music lesson students will have the opportunity to take lessons from the comfort of their own home or in one of the teachers studios. Careful attention is placed on each student to ensure a custom lesson plan. Our music teachers understand that every student has different needs and abilities and therefore the lessons will be planned with that knowledge in mind.
lessons are available in the following areas:
Featured Cello Teachers In Madison County, IL
Collin B
Instruments: Cello
I like to say my teaching style is very open to interpretation. I like to mold my teaching to the student rather than assuming the student will mold to my teaching. I believe in consistent and meaningful practice. That means that students are expected to practice at least 20 minutes a day. I always say that its better to practice 20 minutes for 5 days than 2 hours in one day. With my teaching students are also expected to come up with a goal for the end of the term and to see it through. Read More
Jack P
Instruments: Cello
I am a committed educator, passionate about sharing the cello with anyone and everyone who wants to learn! I received my Bachelors of Music in Cello Performance from the Eastman School of Music in Rochester New York in 2015. After graduating, I moved to Chicago Illinois, where I have enjoyed an active teaching, performing, recording and touring schedule. In addition to my classical pursuits, I am an avid fan of cross-genre collaborations and have performed, recorded and toured with a variety of Chicago-area bands, some of which include: Rebecca Rego and the Trainmen, Poor Calvin, Fuzzy Poser, Audrey Q, Brian McGrath and The Phantom Broadcast.

Nicholas C
Instruments: Cello
With beginner Cello, the first major learning curve is being able to get into position: Posture, Cello placement, left hand, bow hold, etc. This is probably the most rote work early on, as the student learns scales and basic techniques. Once the student shows a good demonstration of the basics, then the lessons proper begin. I like to have 3 'projects' at a time; 2 simple pieces aimed at learning a certain technique, and a larger piece catered to the student's interests. Read More

It is important to me that each student progress at their own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. I make sure to always acknowledge accomplishments to help fuel the student's desire to progress and make them eager to learn more. By finding out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. Read More

Instruments: Violin, Cello, Viola, Double Bass, Music, Classical Guitar, Acoustic Guitar
I have been teaching for 4 years, both in Illinois State University, and within Mr. Musicman. With this, I have had ample experience both in large groups, and privately teaching. It has been, hands down, the greatest time of my life teaching students. I really believe that every single student I have, has the potential to thrive and succeed. So, my students actually grow at an accelerated rate. If you can show students that you believe in them, the sky is truly the limit for any student. Read More
