Professional musician, I teach cello for all levels!

From 37.51 £ /h

Passionate and experienced, I offer cello lessons adapted to all levels and objectives. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced musician, we will cover the fundamental aspects of instrumental technique by working in depth on the left hand (pitch, vibrato, agility) and the right hand (bow control, pressure/speed, nuances, sound quality).
I pay particular attention to posture and bodily connection with the instrument, to create a harmonious link between the body and the cello. This work promotes a fluid and expressive playing, where the body becomes an extension of the instrument.
Beyond technique, I encourage ensemble musical playing, introducing you to the art of chamber music and active listening, in order to develop your musical sense and refine your interpretation. Each course is personalized according to your desires and the styles you wish to explore.

We will travel through different musical eras to enrich your repertoire and your understanding of styles, while giving an important place to emotions and feelings in music.
My goal is to give you the tools and the cards to fully express yourself on the cello, whether for pleasure, to prepare for a competition or a competition or to join an ensemble.

About Me

I am a mezzo-soprano and professional musician, passionate about self-development through music. Trained at the conservatory of Fontenay-sous-bois, Montreuil and then at the Royal Academy of Music in London, I have had the honor of winning prestigious awards such as the first prize of the International Academy of Music of Flaine, the Est-Ensemble soloist competition, the Elena Gerdhart Lieder Prize, the second prize of the MAP competition as well as the bronze prize of the Virtuoso International Music Awards.

On stage, I have had the opportunity to perform in renowned international venues such as the Society of Authors and Composers of Drama, the Marble Works, the Jardin d'Acclimatation, the Arsenal Theatre, the Church of Saint-Merry, the Regent Hall, the Church of St James, the National Theatre of Pécs... My experience also includes the creation of lyrical shows (Jeu de Dames, the boundaries between shadow and light) and the creation of different musical formations (duo, trio, quartet, quintet).
Alongside my artistic career, I have been teaching singing, cello and music theory since 2018. I have worked in conservatories, private music schools, nursery schools, primary schools and middle schools/high schools. I have led music workshops and participated in projects in Medical Educational Institutes, Specialized Medical Institutes, associations or municipalities for people with disabilities or in precarious situations. I also worked on the DEMOS project.

A graduate of the Royal Academy of Music and a professional opera artist, I teach singing for all levels!

37.51 £ /h

My singing lessons are based on a complete and in-depth approach to vocal technique, emphasizing the connection between the body and the voice. As a professional lyrical singer, I accompany you in the development of a healthy and controlled voice through exercises and knowledge on breathing, posture, support and opening the resonators, essential to release the power as well as the beauty, purity and personality of the voice.
My teaching goes beyond technique: From my many experiences on stage, I integrate the work of interpretation and scenic expression, inspired by theater and lyrical art. Together, we will explore how to transmit emotions through the voice and the body, cultivating stage presence and the art of telling a story through music.
I adapt to your needs and goals, whether it's singing for fun, preparing for a competition, or improving your confidence on stage.
Whether you are a beginner or advanced, my goal is to guide you towards your voice!

I offer music theory lessons for all levels, adapted to the objectives and desires of each student!

37.51 £ /h

My approach combines theory and creativity.
We will approach learning notes through a conductor book but also through colors, drawings and songs for a fun and lively memorization. You will also discover the essential signs for reading and writing music: staff, keys, rests, alterations, ornaments and other elements enriching the musical language.
The rhythm will be worked on through a book but also in a physical way thanks to dance, movement, body clapping to naturally integrate the pulse and the tempo.
We will explore ensemble playing, essential for developing listening and musical cohesion with others.
Interpretation and nuances will be addressed by highlighting musical colors and expressiveness in order to bring each piece to life and convey emotions.
You will discover different musical styles and eras, varied instrumental forms and formations in order to enrich your musical culture.
Finally, music theory (tones, chords, intervals, scales, cadences, etc.) will be integrated in a progressive and accessible way.
My goal is to offer you tailor-made learning, so that each student progresses at their own pace while enjoying exploring the richness of Music.

Hello,

If the method is right, anyone can do it! It is with this spirit that I give my cello lessons, and I live with great pleasure to see my students progress every week with this magnificent instrument!

Have you been hesitating about starting the cello for a while? Do you dream of playing the prelude to Bach's first suite or a melody you've heard played on the cello? or do you just want to enjoy the magnificent sound of this instrument?

Malaysian cellist, in France for 12 years, I graduated from DEM at the Paris Regional Conservatory and from the Performance Diploma at the Ecole Normale de Musique in Paris, I am currently studying in the concert cycle at the Paris Regional Conservatory. This is why I know the French and Asian working method well and I love the exchanges between Asian music and European music, and it is with pride that I offer you my cello lessons.

Before going even further, I would like to share with you my cello learning journey.

I was born in a small town in the south of Malaysia, where there weren't many music teachers, although I knew I wanted to play cello very early, I only had the chance to 'finally started the cello when I was 15, and then when I came to France I realized that I was a lot behind my classmates...

This is why I wanted to find a very effective way to learn the instrument, I was lucky to have superb teachers who helped me progress and since then I have passed the competition for '' entered the CRR in Paris (being much older than my classmates), I graduated from the Ecole Normale de Musique in Paris and even better I did a lot of concerts, I participated in master's class and I even passed competitions to play as an academic / intern in orchestras.

All this to tell you that there is no age to start, all that matters is motivation and a good learning method. I was certainly not the genius child but I knew how to adapt to have real results.

Everything I learned, you can learn too, I have always loved sharing my passion for music and with years of teaching experience, I have helped my students as children, adult beginners or more advanced to have real progress and results...

My teaching plan is firstly, to understand your objective, whatever it is to be able to play a specific piece or just to have fun with the instrument etc... then to establish a work plan which suits you well, and then help you step by step until you reach your goal. And I truly believe that anyone can succeed with a well-established plan.

I try to vary between the Suzuki method and the classical studies of Feuillard etc, I also arrange the pop music or film music according to your desires. For beginners, I try to help you establish a very solid basic technique so that you can progress quickly but with a lot of rigor. For the advanced amateurs, I try to work more in the musicality and to play works in different styles.

I teach in French, English or Mandarin.

I can also gladly give you advice on renting / buying a cello.
Looking forward to reading you !

I am a young Italian professional cellist with 23 years of study and professional experience. I have been living in Paris for four and a half years. I earned a Bachelor's degree from the Turin Conservatory, then specialized in Baroque music in Paris, completing advanced studies at the Paris Conservatory, a Master's degree from the Versailles Conservatory, and a second Master's degree in Classical and Romantic music from the Saintes Conservatory (Abbaye aux Dames). I work with several renowned European early music ensembles such as Le Concert Spirituel, Accademia Bizantina, Les Ombres, and La Chimera. I was a semi-finalist in the prestigious MA Competition 2021 in Bruges. I also play modern music, and with my solo cello and electronic music project, I have had the opportunity to participate in major Italian festivals. In France, I regularly work with the French chanson trio Melquiades.

I offer cello lessons for all levels and all styles (classical cello, baroque cello and modern cello), with the possibility of following the lessons at home, by webcam or at home, in French, Italian and English.

The method that I adopted in my studies and that I teach is Suzuki: working on the student, nourishing his environment with stimuli and simultaneously developing his artistic and technical maturity, his morality and his character.
I also believe in group work, the possibility of playing with friends or colleagues, so I often suggest creating small ensembles to share and learn good music with others.

My courses are aimed at all profiles: beginners in the discovery of the instrument, students wishing to have support in addition to their teacher, prepare for an audition or an exam or people wishing to discover the musical universe through cello.
I was trained by the great French cello school and seeks to maintain the requirement while opening up and always listening to the wishes of my students. I am ready to adapt to the needs of each one or if necessary, to take the lead and decide the pace and content of the course. The goal is to take pleasure in working efficiently and pleasantly.
I can introduce the student to chamber music by accompanying him on the piano or the cello and if necessary help him with music theory. I also have experience in the world of tango and baroque music and can therefore completely bring learning to other musical styles.

Hello,

I am a professional cellist with a master's degree from the Royal College of Music in London.
Passionate about teaching music and the cello, I have been teaching for many years in music schools (music ensemble XX, passion leitmotif), conservatories (replacements) and in the private sector.

There is no age to start playing an instrument: my adult students show me day after day!
As for children, they can also start very early at the age of 4 and a half. (A few months depending on personality and facilities)

My students benefit from comprehensive teaching, whether they are beginners or very advanced, and adapted to their personality and needs.
You will quickly discover: I am a very positive and encouraging person, which allows my students to progress with serenity in a comfortable environment.

If necessary, I teach the basics of music theory and music theory, being able to go in-depth according to the student's interest and needs.

Musical ear, concentration, physical dispositions, memory, ability to adapt, curiosity, musical personality: all these characteristics, more or less present from the start, will develop over the course of the sessions, and you will be quickly proud of your progress.

My priority in teaching the cello is to establish true well-being with the instrument, both physical and mental, with patience, involvement and constant adaptation to each person's functioning. With the rigor necessary for learning any art, I teach you patience and the joy of paying attention to details.

Beginners: By obtaining a healthy and comfortable technique, you will quickly create beautiful tones.

Discover the secrets of this instrument with its sound and range so close to the human voice, and its benefits on the mind.
You will also discover beautiful pieces of classical music (among others!) that are affordable quite quickly, depending on your investment.

You can also come with the pieces that you like, and that you would like to play. This can give a good goal, additional motivation!

Amateurs and advanced: if you want to go further in interpretation, or overcome technical difficulties encountered when learning pieces, or simply deepen your cello learning.

Advanced: If you wish to take an entrance exam into a music school or conservatory, or obtain additional lessons for a cello exam, some musical and mental "coaching" courses can help you. I help you strengthen your self-confidence and gently repair your bad habits.

You will also be able to meet others, one day if you wish, in order to create little duets

I offer private cello lessons, at your home or mine! I really like teaching, I have had cello students (music theory and tutoring as well) for 6 years and my contact with them is always very good. I am passionate about teaching, about how different personalities work and the issues specific to them and I am therefore always looking for new ways to teach them this beautiful instrument. I obtained my DEM (diploma of musical studies) in June 2024, which attests to my technical and musical level; this is why I am able to help students get started as well as help others who are already learning, up to the 3rd cycle of the conservatory for example. Contact me to find out more, especially about the price!
