Music Lessons in Winter Park, FL

Instruments: Cello

Once I was accepted into the UCF program under David Bjella, a busy schedule and the other cellists having more experience than me saw a sharp decline in my cello tutelage. It was supplanted however by the wide variety of classes and music education electives available to all the music majors, which I quickly signed up for to further my teaching abilities. As my skilled were honed and the creation of the Central Florida Cello Association garnered interest from those outside the studio, students slowly returned seeking guidance for their own cello careers.

I love sharing my knowledge with my students. There is nothing better than to watch them evolve and grow. There is such joy in watching a student learn and master a particular exercise assigned to him or her. I enjoy teaching at every level, from beginners to advanced. Also, I love the challenge of teaching young students from five to teenagers and the challenges of teaching adults and advanced students. Read More

I cant wait to teach more formal lessons specially now that Im older. Just teaching my first student and inspiring them into making music would be something amazing beyond any of the music accomplishment I have had thus far. Read More

My teaching method is very keen to diagrams. In my experience, it can be hard to visualize some of the terminology that is provided my teachers. Using diagrams helps to put the instructors words into a more visual format. I also like teaching through some of the students favorite songs, it really helps keep the student interested in the lesson as a whole. Read More
