My aim is to work with students to discover their aims and goals with their cello playing to take them to the next levels and transform their technique and most importantly their sound.
I can work with any ages regardless of ability level (enhanced DBS). I am happy to work with students who want to take grade exams, want some extra help with repertoire or just for the fun of developing and improving on the cello!
During the first few lessons we will discover what the student wants to achieve from these lessons and develop a plan of action for the subsequent lessons. I am flexible with lesson lengths and I am happy to travel to students in order to teach. I am also an orchestral sectional tutor coach and also play lots of chamber music and I am very happy to teach in these areas or to adapt lessons to fit these areas of interests in.
Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the teacher
I could not recommend Alex enough as a cello teacher. He is committed to tailoring lessons to his students needs, and inspiring them to keep improving. He is hugely knowledgeable and reliable whilst being able to share his enjoyment for music to students.
Alex is a superb cellist and a wonderful musician. In his lessons, he breaks down complex techniques into simple steps. His focus on technical achievements is always discussed in close connection with musical expression.
Alex' background in academic music and performance uniquely positions him as a truly excellent, well-rounded tutor!View more recommendations
