Cello Lessons in Throgs Neck, NY

Instruments: Cello

My two rules of teaching are to be encouraging and be engaging. I don't want students dragging their feet as they walk to their lesson. I want them sprinting up the stairs and ringing my bell several times, because they are so excited to get started!

I have always liked this statement: "The only difference between a student and a teacher is that the teacher gets the student to where the teacher is only quicker."

I also understand the importance of embracing the diverse cultural backgrounds. Read More

My teaching style is totally focused on the goals and aptitude of the student, as well as any personal matters that might interfere with the learning process. An example of the latter is a student who might have a high level of anxiety due to their past learning experiences. Every effort is made to understand the students anxiety, and help them overcome it, rather than add to it, in any way. Read More
