Cello in a nutshell: Cello lessons for everyone in Mainz and online

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Music is very interesting both as a profession and as a hobby, but in the beginning we all have difficulties when it comes to playing an instrument. But with a little guidance and a bit of patience you can get the desired results... it's proven :)
My name is Paula, I love teaching and working with enthusiastic people, because as I said, teaching others is actually teaching yourself ;).
My bachelor's degree at the Conservatory of Ghent (Belgium) taught me what music interpretation is. At the Peter Cornelis Conservatory I learned the important basics of cello and music teaching.
In recent years I have gained a lot of experience teaching cello in individual and group lessons as well as in string class lessons.
The way of teaching will suit the level of the student (for beginners I divide the lessons into two parts: half basic music theory and the other half cello), and I will always have my cello with me to illustrate.
If you are interested in playing this beautiful instrument, do not hesitate to write to me.
Music is a beautiful game.

About Me

Ich habe im Alter von 10 Jahren in der Musikschule meiner Heimatstadt angefangen, Cello zu spielen.
Mein Traum ist es, in einem europäischen Orchester zu spielen. Nach der Highschool bekam ich die Möglichkeit, meinen Bachelor in Belgien zu machen.
Während meiner Studienzeit interessierte ich mich sehr für Möglichkeiten, effizient zu üben und das Üben angenehm zu gestalten.
Seitdem ich über diese Methoden nachgedacht habe, wurde ich neugierig, wie sie sich auf andere Menschen anwenden lassen.
Was ich beim Unterrichten anstrebe, ist herauszufinden, was für jeden Schüler funktioniert. Mit anderen Worten, ich versuche, die Art und Weise des Unterrichtens so zu gestalten, dass sie zu jedem Schüler passt.
Das Unterrichten gibt mir auch die Befriedigung, mich selbst zu entdecken und natürlich Neues zu lernen.

Education

Bachelor in Music Performance @ Gent Conservatorium
Instrumentalpädagogik @ Peter Cornelis Konservatorium der Stadt Mainz

Während der Jahre meines Studiums hatte ich insgesamt 3 Hauptlehrer, jeder mit unterschiedlichen Ansätzen des Unterrichts.
In der gleichen Zeit habe ich an vielen Meisterkursen mit großartigen Lehrern teilgenommen, von denen ich enorm viel gelernt habe.
Während dieser Zeit habe ich in vielen Projekten von klassischen Orchestern, Musiktheater, Kammermusik und sogar Pop-Bands gespielt :)

Experience / Qualifications

Instrumantalpädagogik-Hauptfach Cello@Peter Cornelius Konservatorium
Im PCK kann ich mich nur auf die Pädagogik spezialisieren. Es ist sehr interessant, sich den Lehrmethoden zu nähern, zu lernen, was Pädagogik eigentlich ist, Psychologie und viele andere.
Unterrichterfahrung im Einzel-und Gruppeunterricht und Streicherklasse

Music teacher offers electric bass and guitar lessons
Hello, I'm Alan González! I'm a musician from Guadalajara, Jalisco, with a passion for teaching. I'm passionate about music in general and especially about sharing what I know about it.

Andrea
Classical and modern cello classes in Barcelona
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!

Online Classes of Piano, Keyboards and Musical Language
The Tecla y Música Workshop is a space designed to learn and develop your musical and expressive sense through the piano and / or keyboards. The main objective is to learn to make music and enjoy the learning process and its results. The material with which we work (songs, instrumental pieces and exercises) is mainly oriented to your musical taste, and the choice is based on gradually expanding your technical and expressive possibilities, while exploring different musical styles. In this way, different tools are being incorporated to achieve, in a short term, mastery and fluency over the musical language and the instrument. Given that each student has different interests and concerns, whether playing as a hobby or developing a professional career, composing, improvising, etc., the orientation of the classes is built according to the possibilities and particular needs of each case. The work proposal implies a weekly class frequency to achieve optimal work dynamics and that the results are visible in a short term. There is also the possibility of taking isolated classes in order to solve a specific objective such as developing and perfecting some particular aspect of music practice and / or theory as well as preparing instrument exams or theoretical subjects for institutions of musical studies.
