Cello Lessons Polk County, FL

Instruments: Piano, Violin, Cello, Viola

My teaching style is supportive and progressive. Keeping things fresh, new, and exciting is always a factor in all of my lessons, no matter the student or the instrument. Furthermore, my teaching philosophy is that positivity and encouragement leads to progress at all levels. I try to push my students to achieve their full potential without making them feel forced to do so. This way, my students learn more about themselves through music instead of feeling stagnant and unmotivated because of music. Read More

I love teaching music is my passion, I try to give a free way of learning to each student where they will feel the music as a wonderful art of life, the progress will be something quite natural as I approach them into a good technique combining their own personal inspiration, I love to teach some composition too, so they will develop their creativity in their own work.

Instruments: Cello

For students of all levels, introducing the necessary techniques for their development as a cellist through pieces they find enjoyable and challenging is my top priority. Beginners I typically progress quickly through a variety of beginner books such as the Essential Elements or the Susuki method depending on the age and determination of the student, with a focus on learning recognizable and enjoyable tunes. Intermediate cellists will have either Goltermann or Bach works sprinkled in between pieces and arrangements they'd like to play. Read More

Instruments: Cello

I prefer to solidify technique with studies so that in the repertoire, students are comfortable enough with the technical demands to develop their individual musical voices. In other words, I use like to use exercises to develop a new technique, etudes/studies to push students out of their comfort zone, while keeping repertoire assignments within their comfort zone to allow them to exercise their creativity in different areas. I welcome student input in my assignments and balance fun in lessons with the delayed gratification inherent in musical preparation depending on the individual student’s goals. Read More
