I believe it's important for students and teachers to work together to set goals for what the student wants to accomplish. In this sense, I can be flexible -- I'm willing to push students who want to be challenged, or be a little more laid back for those who want music to be a side hobby. We will work together to create a plan that meets your needs. I also believe in fun! Read More

One of my favorite parts about teaching is that oftentimes I learn just as much as the student in the teaching process. For beginner students, I start by working through Hal Leonard's Essential Elements book one for cello. After completing this book of fundamentals, I have the student work through Suzuki books 1-5. Alongside the Suzuki books, I also make sure the student has pieces they can learn for fun. Read More

I ask all of my students to be prepared for their lessons with a notebook and pencil for lesson notes and assignments. I ask them to bring any materials they have and will often recommend books and supplemental material I have had success with. I believe in writing down notes that help students understand what they are learning, exactly what students should practice, and setting goals for their practice and overall progress. Read More

I love seeing my students grow and make progress toward their goals. Every student is an individual and learns differently, so I strive to develop exercises and practice approaches that work for the particular student I'm working with. I always try to mix compliments and constructive criticism in my teaching. I encourage my students to record themselves throughout the week so that I can give feedback between lessons. I strive to create a friendly and relaxed learning environment where both teacher and student work together to gain greater mastery of the cello. Read More

I have the most experience teaching beginner students with the Suzuki method. The main focus of Dr. Suzuki’s method is teaching from a place of love and encouragement. I find this method teaches the technical fundamentals of cello playing while keeping the students progressing at rate suitable for their individual needs. I also emphasize regular scale and technical practice in addition to solo repertoire. I have a whole wealth of technical exercises and warm ups to share to make your everyday warm up different!
