Cello Lessons South

Instruments: Cello

Each student is unique, and I never give the same music lesson twice. I like to set specific, realistic goals, and celebrate their achievement, and use a structure that is easily understood. Above all, optimism and a positive atmosphere are absolute requirements for every lesson, as I love to nurture the inner-musician as much as I love to train the outer-musician. Music is not made, if it is not loved. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Cello

I began to tech private lessons back in 2015 in Brazil, and continued here in the United States. Before that, however, I gained most of my teaching experience tutoring group guitar lessons. My students will have the proper development by learning music and their respect instrument from the basis. The importance of practicing on a regular basis will always be reminded and encourage, as part of their development process. I am committed to help my students in the best possible way to achieve discipline and success in music. Read More

Instruments: Cello

I have performed with the Tallahassee Symphony Orchestra since 2018 and also the assistant principal cellist of the Northwest Florida Symphony Orchestra. In addition, I have played with the Richmond Symphony, the Ocala Symphony, Sinfonia Gulf Coast, Northwest Florida Ballet, Sewanee Summer Festival Symphony, and many other orchestras and ensembles. If it's not obvious, I love performing orchestral repertoire, but also chamber music and pretty much anything else you can think of - and this love of music extends to teaching. Read More

Instruments: Violin, Cello, Viola, Mandolin, Electric Violin, Fiddle, Double Bass

For beginning students in any genre, I begin with learning songs. Classical, jazz, bluegrass, and rock are more easily understood when you spend time playing the music with someone else. Repertoire is chosen with the understanding that fundamentals are key to life long participation and students find positive success when they are able to then share a completed work with their friends and family (think holiday get-togethers!) For young intermediate to advanced players, the philosophy of building one's repertoire continues with the added focus on musical understanding. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Violin, Cello, Viola, Double Bass

I am an experienced music instructor dedicated to the success of my students, striving to impart to them the same passion that I have for music. In 2009, I graduated as valedictorian from Emmanuel College with a degree in Cello Performance and a minor in piano. My studies also focused on music theory, chamber music, and orchestra, as well as string and piano pedagogy. After graduation, I temporarily moved to teach music in a mission school in the Dominican Republic, where I lived for two years and became fluent in Spanish. Read More
