TESTIMONIALS

“Sarah is an incredible teacher for beginning cellists. I’d never played a string instrument before starting with her (except for a brief, misguided dalliance with acoustic guitar) and it was definitely a challenge, but Sarah was excellent at breaking down how to approach the instrument. She strikes the perfect balance between being kind, empathetic, and demanding that makes it feel like I’m always progressing. I leave every class feeling energized and excited to keep playing and learning.”

“I’ve loved learning the cello with Sarah. When learning as an adult some weeks are better than others in terms of finding time and headspace to practice. Sarah always meets me where I’m at with patience and enthusiasm, and by the time I leave class I can’t wait to keep playing. She took the time to find out what I like about music and consistently finds practice songs that are really rewarding to bring to life. My skills have steadily improved working with Sarah - she’s awesome!”

“I tell Sarah (repeatedly) that she is not only a very talented cellist, but she is an excellent teacher as well. Our lessons are always something I look forward to, as she has a way of promoting technique without criticism.  I always leave the studio feeling inspired!”
