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.

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

35.5 £ /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.

Having obtained a 1st prize and a Master's degree with distinction from the Royal Conservatory of Brussels and being an associate professor (IMEP), I teach cello in Lille, for you or your child, whatever the level.

It is not necessary to have notions of music theory to follow the courses.

Active in different orchestras, notably at the Opéra de la Monnaie, I also offer preparation sessions for those who would like to join a musical ensemble.

--> You also have the option of renting an instrument.
Looking forward to reading you,

Virginia

Hello!
I am Irene, a graduated Master student at HKU Utrecht Conservatorium, and I offer cello lessons to people of all ages, both online and in person.
I have more than 7 years of experience teaching both adults and children, in private lessons, group lessons and music schools.
I have also taught music theory and piano to beginners.
The lessons could work in different ways: regular lessons every one or two weeks, or just a couple of times, etc. I have had students that only wanted to learn a bit, and I also have students that have continued for some years with me. I could also adjust the duration of the lessons from 30mins (especially for younger kids) to 1h.
The lessons can be in English and Spanish, and now also in Nederlands! (work in progress!)
The lesson can be in the student's home or in my studio in Vogelenbuurt, and also online! Flexible hours.
I give personalised attention and methods to each one of my students, as everyone is different!

If you have questions, please contact me!
I hope to see you soon!

My teaching method is carefully tailored to the specific needs of each student, regardless of the subject we are working on (music theory, cello, music history, analysis, conducting, etc.). The pace of learning is always set by the student, ensuring that each lesson aligns realistically with their goals and interests.

Whether you're looking for a more flexible, amateur approach — open to personal interests — or a more structured plan aimed at exams, auditions, or academic improvement, I design a personalized learning path for each case.

My approach is rooted in a highly practical vision of learning, inspired by the educational model in which I was trained during my master’s degrees in Conducting (Antwerp) and Historical Cello (Brussels). I view teaching as a dynamic process, where deep understanding takes precedence over rote memorization.

Cello classes for all ages. from scratch, didactic classes for children from the comfort of their home, classes for young people to prepare them to fully enter the profession and classes for adults personalized and at their own pace!
Solfeggio classes for children, educational and fun classes that they will not even realize how easily they have learned music.

Hello! I've been teaching continuously for over 10 years, and I'd like to explain what you can expect from a class with me.

Personalized approach: The most important thing is to know what you want to achieve. I will tailor the lessons to your needs: playing for pleasure at home is not the same as preparing for entrance exams (although always with the same rigor). Your goals will influence the methodology, the organization of your studies, the repertoire, and so on.

Relaxed (but rigorous) environment: Once you've defined your goals, classes will be dynamic and pressure-free. Note! "Relaxed" doesn't mean undemanding; we'll just avoid military methods—especially given my personality and sense of humor.

Music, not just notes: My methods are very dynamic, with a special emphasis on hearing and musicality. No "read, play, and turn the page." I avoid approaches obsessed with reading sheet music without memorizing, listening, or understanding what is being played. I want you to own your performance and make artistic decisions. Warning! I might even make you sing.

No stylistic barriers: Thanks to my training in Jazz and Modern Music, I give equal importance to all genres. Adapting to your tastes, we'll go from baroque to blues, from Haydn to bebop... or even Michael Jackson. Why not?

If you identify with this approach, contact me! Learning the cello is a pleasure, and I'd love to share it with you!

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 10 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! :)

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!

Hello there!

My name is Antek and i'm a cellist and composer who graduated from Conservatorium van Amsterdam. As a cellist I've had the pleasure and honour of collaborating with renowned artists such as Hans Zimmer, being part of his 2022 European Tour Orchestra, touring over 15 countries and playing in locations such as London's O2 Arena or Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam. I am now mainly active as a performer of contemporary/experimental music, as well as classical music, freelancing in various orchestras in the Netherlands, having played in venues such as Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ, Concertgebouw or TivoliVredenburg. I offer cello lessons, regardless of the level - whether you are a curious beginner or more advanced player, i'm happy to collaborate and share my knowledge and experience with you, as well as inspire your creativity regarding both playing the right notes, and making artistic choices.

I can also help you prepare for conservatory entrance exams by providing Solfege, Ear-training and General Music Theory lessons.

As a composer, I'm currently pursuing a degree at Royal Conservatoire of Antwerp. I can help you work on your ideas, and how to write them down, to sound exactly how you want them to sound. That includes tutorials on engraving rules, orchestration, working in DAWs (Ableton) and using sheet music software (Sibelius, MuseScore), as well as building your craft and workflow. I'm experienced in writing both instrumental and electronic music, as well as performance art, live electronics and multidisciplinary projects. I have also collaborated with institutions like National Polish Radio or CelloWercken Festival Zutphen.

I hope to hear back from you soon and I'm looking forward to start working on your musical journey!
Peace and Love
Antek

Growing with joy in playing – developing technique through favorite pieces.

One of the most exciting aspects of playing the piano is the ability to play favorite tunes from movies and Disney fairy tales. You can easily learn and play popular songs that both children and adults will enjoy. This makes practicing the piano even more interesting and inspiring, as you can enjoy familiar and beloved melodies.
Learn your favorite melodies with fun
In my lessons, we'll explore jazz and pop music together on the piano. We'll play the music you love. If you'd also like to learn classical works, we're happy to incorporate that music into the lessons. You'll also learn music theory and ear training (solfeggio) – in a relaxed and playful way, so the focus is always on fun.

About Tuğçe

I am a graduate of Anadolu University State Conservatory.

While my foundation is rooted in classical music, I have also been actively involved in pop and popular music scenes, performing on stage with various well-known artists from different musical backgrounds.

I currently work as an assistant group leader within a municipal orchestra, continuing my professional performance career alongside teaching.

I see the cello not only as a technical instrument, but as a powerful voice for expression and storytelling. In my lessons, I combine classical techniques with popular repertoire, always shaping the learning process around the student’s goals, interests, and musical identity.

I work with students of all ages and truly enjoy connecting with each individual. I have a special ease in working with children, helping them build confidence and inspiration through music.

My goal is not only to teach cello, but to inspire, support creative growth, and guide each student toward discovering their own musical voice.
