Cello Lessons in Colonia, NJ

Instruments: Cello

My teaching style is a combination of Suzuki method and traditional method. Having learned with the traditional method, I feel it is vital and extremely important for students to learn to read music from the point at which they start reading books and words, this is typically at age 5. For students under age 5 we begin learning everything by ear, once they start reading we introduce reading notes. I'm passionate about having a parent present for every lesson as it is extremely important that a parent or caretaker learn the material so they can be the teacher at home during the week for practice sessions.

I have a relaxed teaching style. And once a student has the basics, I offer them a selection of pieces to play.

I am quite aware, that each student advances at their own rate. And along those lines, they are also taught how to practice correctly. Read More
