Teaching Info
My teaching is centred around a solid technical foundation. This is hard work, but the pay off is well worth it! Once you know how to do something correctly, the rest is easy! I strive for all my students to gain a love and knowledge of music through cello, and once a term host a “Cello Party”, where all the students in my studio get together to celebrate and share what they have learned.
