I've been studying cello for 16 years and have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music from Drake University. I am also on the substitute list in the Des Moines Symphony cello section as well as the Sioux City Symphony cello section. I enjoy teaching cello lessons because I can help students become better while also giving them a greater appreciation of music. In addition to this I enjoy how music can be interpreted different ways and I can teach the basics while also helping students create their own interpretations to music. Read More

For adults, we mostly stick to Suzuki and Essential Elements, but I have found that incorporating songs they are familiar with is helpful in their education. Read More
