I base my teaching out of the Schroeder Violoncello Methods for all ages along with the Schroeder 170 cello studes.

I always own up to mistakes -on the rare occasion that I am human. I create a supportive learning environment that fosters excellence, and rewards progress with greater opportunity.

This is practiced in an environment of intellectual growth, mutual respect and genuine fun. Read More

I also have my students play popular pieces or holiday pieces of their choosing in addition to their classical repertoire. Read More
