Cello Lessons Virginia

Instruments: Piano, Cello

My first experience giving private lessons was at a summer music camp right before my senior year in high school.  I have consistently taught piano and cello students for over 10 years independently and as an affiliate of local music stores.  My goal as a teacher is for each of my students to make gradual progress each week as they become more proficient with their exercises and music.  I hold at least 2 recitals a year which I strongly encourage everyone to take part in.

Instruments: Violin, Cello, Viola, Electric Violin

My teaching style is full of open communication. I think that it is important that students set goals for themselves. I allow my students to pieces that they want to play. Students need to be able to see their own progress. I know that not every student will be outwardly excited, but I know that every student feels internally great about accomplishing goals. I set goals for my students that align with their goals. Read More
