I am a dedicated and experienced cello teacher with a strong emphasis on deep technique, mindful body control, and cultivating the right mindset. Whether you're preparing for an exam (AMEB, ABRSM, RCM), a concert, an audition, a scholarship, or simply learning for joy or personal fulfillment, I will guide you or your child toward your musical goals. I began teaching cello at the age of 17, and now have over 20 years of experience. Since 2015, I have specialized in online instruction, and for the past six years, I’ve taught full-time online. I've developed a refined method that ensures healthy playing habits and correct posture, especially important for adult learners who are just starting out or returning to the instrument. Qualifications: Master’s Degree in Cello Performance and Pedagogy Trained in conducting, music theory, and ensemble instruction Certified Art Therapist and Art Coach I am also the founder of Cello and Friends, an online platform where I share my reflections, teaching insights, and personal experiences as a cello teacher through my blog. My students range in age from 8 to 68 and come from all over the world. Some study for personal development, while others are preparing for entry into conservatories and music colleges. In addition to cello, I teach music theory—from the basics to advanced jazz harmony—and offer support to young composers working on their own music. I personally enjoy yoga, the Adriatic Sea in Croatia, mountains without internet connection, walking with my dog in the forest, and good music. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. I’d be happy to help you begin or continue your journey with the cello.
