Musical is one of my top subjects! Cello Beginner Class
I have been playing cello for 15 years. Although my studies took me on a different path I have always been passionate about music. I teach all kind of beginners, but I am especially experienced with children. I usually make the cello class an introduction to music through cello which means that I take into account that, for most kids, it is not only the first instrument they are introduced to but also their first encounter with the rich, beautiful and complex world of music. I try to guide them with words and game they will understand and enjoy. I come from France, but I am fluent in english, and language won't be an issue. I look forward to get new students!
As a french teacher, I have started giving tutoring lessons to close friends when I was studying in the USA, and I moved on to teaching real french classes, for people of all levels. Everyone is challenged in different ways when they learn a language, depending on they learning habits, history with the language and what they want to use that language for. I try to understand the specificity of every student and adapt to them.
As a Cello Beginner teacher I try to make the learning of the instrument a creative process. My goal is to give beginner the possibility to use the musical language in a way that will fully correspond to them. As I teach mostly children, I have witnessed that this way of teaching allows the children to really own and enjoy their instruments, which is fundamental to balance the repetitive aspect of learning a new instrument's technic.
