About Me

Good morning ! I am an American-German cellist based in Annecy. I speak French, English and German fluently. I started the cello at 7 years old in classical training, but I diversified to include jazz, pop, and current music in general.
In addition to my passion for music, I also enjoy writing and correcting lyrics for musicians, as well as helping with pronunciation. I am also an experienced language instructor and teach English and German.

Education

I graduated with a Master in Art, cello specialization, from the Haute Ecole de Musique de Lausanne, received in 2021. This includes a great knowledge of musical theory, a vast repertoire ranging from renaissance music to contemporary music , as well as a mastery of orchestral and chamber ensemble playing. I also have some experience in recording.

Ten years of experience in teaching cello, music theory, as well as language courses in English and German.

Cello lessons (all styles of music) in Annecy / Cello lessons in Annecy

38.27 Fr /h

* English below *

My method is based on a complete approach not only to the cello but also to music. A technical approach to the instrument linked to this great sensitivity that music offers us, to make you, at any level, a complete musician. I focus not only on the technical aspect of the instrument, which allows us as cellists to give ourselves the tools necessary to express ourselves, but also elements of improvisation, which allow us to find freedom in the expression. Another core aspect of my teaching is playing music with my students. I regularly arrange pieces of all genres for two cellos, adapting the student's voice to their level.

I am of American and German origin having grown up in the Geneva region. I graduated with a Bachelor and a Master in performance from the Haute Ecole de Musique de Lausanne; followed by a year of advanced training at the Royal College of Music in London. I almost have 10 years of teaching experience, but I continue to evolve and adapt to everyone's demands.

**********

My teaching method is based on a balanced approach not only to cello playing, but also towards music in general. A technical approach to the instrument combined with musicality and sensitivity can make anyone, at any level, a well-rounded musician. Working together, we will develop technique, providing us cellists with the necessary tools to express ourselves. Equally as important are elements of improvisation, allowing us to find freedom and expression in our cello playing. Another core aspect of my teaching is playing together. I regularly arrange pieces of all genres for two cells by adapting the student's part to his or her level.

Former German student in college, I wanted to become a German teacher. I have been in love with this language since I was young.
Mom of 2 young boys, I test daily learning through play and humor, and I think this recipe is fundamental also for adults.
So it is with enthusiasm and good humor that we will revisit Goethe's language if you contact me! :)

Professional English, in context of leadership and strategy, planning, problem solving, face to face and meeting skills. The learning method is practical, where students are given tasks, and the teacher/coach suggest ways to improve. Similar to the way a director coaches actors to perform

I give English and English civilization lessons for French learners. Adults and schools. Academic support from sixth to final year. + commercial English BTS, Bachelor, Masters, all series.
I also give support lessons in French for schoolchildren from sixth to second year inclusive. And French and French conversation courses for foreign students and adults wishing to improve their skills in this language.
Above all, when it comes to my classes, particularly conversation classes in English and French, I seek to make them as lively as possible. I favor conversation, exchange in the chosen language. We study grammar and vocabulary, subsequently, on what we have said, practiced, read or commented on. I give exercises after each lesson. But these exercises are always linked to a context. I like to approach things in a lively way. It's the best way to learn and assimilate.

This class is designed for anyone who wants to improve their spoken English in a relaxed and supportive environment. Whether you’re preparing for life abroad, want to speak more confidently at work or school, or just need regular conversation practice, I’m here to help.

I’m a university student in London, fluent in English, and I completed the IB with English Language and Literature. I focus on helping you speak naturally and clearly—without focusing too much on grammar rules or formal writing.

We can talk about everyday topics, practice pronunciation, expand your vocabulary, and build confidence in speaking.
