Cello lessons for all generations (children - adults)

Dear music interested person

I am a cello student in my 1st year of cello pedagogy at the HEM Genève - Neuchâtel and I am passionate about playing my instrument! For me it is a very exciting and enriching task to bring the cello closer to other people.

The cello is a wonderful instrument. It has a deep, warm sound and it is very versatile in its expression.
Whether you have a connection to music or are curious to try something completely new, I invite you to learn to play the cello! Children, adults and seniors - all are welcome.

It is important to me that you enjoy music in addition to the various areas such as motor skills, ear training, sense of rhythm, self-discipline, empathy, etc. that are developed in the lessons.
The technique is used for further development on the instrument. This also includes regular independent practice.

Music can accompany you your whole life. It is an incredible gift!

I would be very happy if I could accompany you in this journey!

Best regards
Vera

Vera grew up in Ruswil and began playing the cello with Philipp Martin Christen at the age of seven. From 2006 to 2016 she was tutored by Anne-Christine Vandewalle. Then she took lessons from Mattia Zappa. From 2014 to 2018 she was a member of the talent development program of the Canton of Lucerne. After graduating from the canton school Alpenquai (music class) in 2018, she attended the PreCollege of the Music Academy of the City of Basel with Stephanie Meyer.
Vera is a member of the Central Switzerland Youth Orchestra (ZJSO).

Cello and Classical Guitar and Music Theory Music Teacher
Hello! I am a student from University of Taipei. My major is Music Performance (Cello). I am learning music since the age of 10.

Sergio
Higher Graduate (with masters) in Cello and Conducting teaches music at all levels
My teaching method is scrupulously adapted to each student I have, regardless of the subject to work on (musical language, cello, music history, analysis, conducting, etc.) I always apply the Belgian teaching model, where I trained with my master's degrees in Conducting (Antwerp) and Historical Cello (Brussels). According to this model, the main thing is a living and practical teaching, taking understanding and not memory as the main learning engine.

Miriam
CELLO & MUSIC LESSONS FOR ALL AGES AND LEVELS WITH A PROFESSIONAL CELLIST WITH 8 YEARS OF TEACHING EXPERIENCE (IN PERSON AND ONLINE)
Are you in love with the sound of the cello but have never dared to start playing it? Have you been playing the cello as an amateur and now need an expert to guide you? Do you want to develop and improve your cello and musical skills? Do you need reinforcement lessons? Would you like to prepare for entrance exams to the conservatory? Would you love to join a youth orchestra and need help preparing for the auditions? ... These are the private cello lessons you were looking for! My name is Miriam, I am a graduate in Master of Classical Music at KASK & Conservatorium in Ghent. I've been teaching cello to children, teenagers and adults for 8 years, so I've acquired the necessary experience to be able to adapt to the different and personal needs and objectives of each student. My teaching methodology focuses on creating a friendly and relaxed environment (which does not mean undemanding!) in which students feel confident to express their own ideas and worries. In my lessons I focus on technical and postural questions, but we also reflect together on the music, as I like my students to develop their own musical ideas and not just imitate the teacher. Contact me now to schedule your first lesson and take the first step toward your musical aspirations! :)

Furthermore, I will help you realise whatever your goal with the cello is: learning a specific song, playing in an amateur orchestra, playing with/for friends, or simply having fun with music!

Paula
Cello and music theory - instructions for beginners and intermediate students.
Music is very interesting both as a profession and as a hobby, but in the beginning we all face difficulties when it comes to playing an instrument. But with a little guidance, hard work and patience you can get the results you want... it's proven :) My name is Paula, I'm 25 years old and I enjoy teaching and working with enthusiastic people, because as I said, teaching others is actually teaching yourself ;). My field of study is music interpretation (cello), at the Ghent Conservatory. The way of teaching will suit the level of the student (for beginners I divide the lessons into two parts: half basic music theory and the other half cello), and I will always have my cello with me to illustrate. If you are interested in playing this beautiful instrument, do not hesitate to write to me. And never forget: music is beautiful, not difficult.

Diego

Ciao! Sono Diego, cello student at the Italian Svizzera conservatory. I'm Spanish and I've been to Lugano for 3 years. Mi piace so fare lezione, ho avuto già altri studente e mi sembra una attività so stimolante anche per me, imparo so many doing lezioni.

Sara
Celloles in Leuven and surroundings for children and adults
Want to play cello? I am a Spanish cellist who came to Belgium to study and ended up staying here! In the Lemmens Institute I graduated my master cello and chamber music as well as the specific teacher training. I have experience with both children and adults. I believe in a custom schedule, depending on the person. You can learn the cello with a classical repertoire and also with a modern one!

Anna
Playing the cello makes you beautiful both inside and outside!
Hello, my name is Anna, and I’ve been playing the cello for 22 years. I have a masters degree both in performative arts and teaching cello from the Franz Liszt Academy of Music in Budapest, Hungary. I have acquired a wide range of tools to inspire my pupils individually in their step-by-step development. I teach learners of all ages and levels, my students are 5-60 years old, from beginner to advanced. When I was 15, my cello teacher asked me to teach her younger pupils. I was enthusiastic of teaching, and I still have the same enthusiasm, but much more knowledge and experience. Playing the cello makes you beautiful both inside and outside! While playing the cello, I pay attention to the music, my technique, my body and my emotions. I focus on the same aspects while teaching, so we will improve your musical and technical abilities, as well as your awareness of your own body and emotions. These can (and should) be improved regardless of age and level so if you're interested, sign up for my cello lessons!

Osian
Cello, singing and theory lessons from bilingual Welsh and English speaker
Hi my name is Osian and I’m a cellist from South Wales. I’ve taught children of many ages and standards and I really feel privileged to be a part of someone’s musical and personal development. Music lessons can be a way of reaching the concert platform or it could be a way of expressing yourself and being creative, wether it’s a career path or not. I grew up playing and singing where my first priority was to fall in love with music and learn to perform it to the best standard that I could do and that’s what I’d like to encourage my students to aim for too. I’m a BMus Hons Scholar from The Royal Academy of Music and I’m not studying at a masters lever at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam.

Maksim
[Skype, Face Time, Zoom] Online cello lessons from the teacher Frankfurt/Darmstadt/Mannheim, beginner-advanced
I study at the Musikhochschule Mannheim and at the Blackmore Academy Berlin. I have worked both as an orchestra musician with renowned orchestras such as the Hr-Symphonieorchester and the Museumsorchester Frankfurt and also as a soloist with the Geringas Chamber Orchestra. I have attended many international courses with, among others: David Geringas, Reinhard Latzko, Jan Ickert and Martti Rousi. I teach in German, Russian and English. I design the lessons according to the student's wishes. I am particularly interested in further development in order to cope with increasingly difficult tasks, for example the section leader in the orchestra. I attach great importance to literature from all stylistic epochs from baroque to modern, including popular music. I like to teach beginners according to Gabriel Koeppen's cello school, volumes 1-3 and the Suzuki method. I regularly arrange works for my students' cello sambles and, at the request of the students, music that has not yet been rewritten for cello.
