I believe that every student has their own learning style and I strive to teach to the student. Therefore, every student is taught differently, according to what works for them, and how the student is comfortable being taught. Student's will learn at their own pace while being encouraged to go beyond what they believe they are capable. Students will be given playing opportunities in an annual rectial, and semi annual group performances. Read More

I have been insfluenced and surrounded with music since childhood. I have experience in multiple aspects of music from performance to teaching and just about everything in between. I love working with students to achieve their goals. The most rewarding feeling for me is when my student feels they've accomplished a technique or method on their respective instrument. I strive to keep lessons joyous yet keep the student motivated to practice at home. Read More
Instruments: Piano Cello
I have been teaching for over 25 years. I have 5 children of my own who are all musicians. I have studied pedagogy at the University of Illinois and have also studied the Suzuki method. I feel lucky that I can take all of these experiences and methods and combine them to what works best for my students. What I have found is that there is not one clear cut method- every student learns in a different way. Read More
Instruments: Cello
For beginning students, I like to start with the beginnig Suzuki books, and I incorporate many Suzuki methods into my teaching style. As an accompaniment to Suzuki, I also use Klengal's Technical Studies for the Violoncello, Vol. 1 in order to solidify a solid understanding of scales and hand positions. Once a student demonstrates appropriate dexterity, I begin to introduce solo repetoire that they would like to prepare for studio performances and any other pieces that they have an interest in playing.

Hi, this is Yvonne. I recently graduated from Berklee College of Music and just moved from Boston to LA! I started playing piano at the age of 5 and started playing cello at 12 years old. I've spent 6 years in the orchestra as a cellist. Though I started out as a classically trained pianist and cellist, I got into different styles of piano playing while in college such as Jazz, R&B, and pop. Read More

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
My musical accomplishments have been winning various local competition ( I won my first competition at the age of 12), scholarship recipient for my Bachelor of Music (Partial) and a Full scholarship to the University of Michigan. While I was a student at CSUN I won the school competition and was to perform with a live orchestra as a representation of the school of music. As a graduate of CSUN I received the Margaret Aue Award for outstanding cellist.
In addition as a scholarship recipient at the University of Michigan I was placed in the student graduate quartet, where we performed all the composers new works and performed many concerts.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had a fabulous Elementary teacher that was able to teach all the instruments at El Marino School in Culver City. She is very knowledgeable and a great woman. To this day I always thank her for all she did for me. I worked with her for 2 years and then she told my parents that I needed private lessons at this point, I was 10 year old at this point. She is an inspiration to all the students who played under her conducting.
When will I start to see results?
Usually you start seeing results within a week. Realizing that the beginner (child or Adult) will learn at different pace. Some students catch on very quickly and move through the book at a good clip. Others need more time and develop a little slower. The important thing is to learn correctly and you will see results every week. Remember practicing is important here to see results.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
My standard for knowing a child is ready to start lessons is a few criteria. Can the student read. If so they can then read music because music is a language and it requires the understanding of reading in order to learn how to play. The student should be very interested in the instrument they want to learn, and try to visit some concerts so they may see their instrument being played by professionals. This way, they can see and hear their instrument in a live concert.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practicing is not fun......Yup you heard from me. However, practicing is important. Because without practicing students will not accomplish learning the instrument. Effective practice is a skill that must be learned and understood.
Practicing is not playing the piece assigned to them over and over again with the same mistake each time. This will not work very well. So if the student can identify the mistake, we isolate the problem and repeat the correct way several times so the mistake is finally corrected.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
My primary instrument is cello of which I have my degree in Cello Performance, with conducting was my second choice. I teach all levels of cello.
In addition, I acquired a great tool and I was taught by my brother who is a fabulous Violinist who is No. 5 in the world. I have the skills to teach beginning violin only.
