Celloles voor alle leeftijden en niveaus. Inspirerend en veelzijdig!

From 99 C$ /h

Hello!

Are you looking for a new Cello teacher?
My name is Paulo. I’m a German/Portuguese cellist and Cello teacher. I studied in Germany in the music universities of Cologne and Düsseldorf (Bachelor of Music and Master of Music - Artistic and pedagogic degrees). I have a lot of experience in teaching and I love to do so!
Students of all ages are very welcome to contact me.

I would be very pleased to become your new Cello teacher :)

I’m a cello teacher in the official music school in the city of Mönchengladbach, Germany. Since I’m moving to The Hague in August I’m looking for new professional challenges and personal encounters in the City. My Dutch isn’t still perfect, but I’m working on it. All the other languages I stated are spoken fluently by me.

I’m curious for your messages.

Groetjes,
Paulo

I am happy to offer cello lessons (online or in person) to musicians of any age and experience level. I have been teaching for over 15 years and enjoy students of all types- whether you are learning just for fun or would like to train seriously. I adjust my teaching style to match your individual needs. I have a very flexible schedule, so we can easily find lesson times that are best for you.

Are you here to discover a new passion for a magnificent discipline like music?
Or maybe to improve your cello playing?
Or even more, to start exploring improvisation/creative music-making on strings?

In that case, I am here for you!
Whatever genres you want to study, I am ready to start and to bring you around the incredible universe of music. The lessons will be completely shaped by your needs and expectations, and everything will always refer to your personality and passions!

I am an expert teacher/coach, since I graduated in a Master in MUSIC EDUCATION from the Royal Conservatory of Den Haag. This, in addition to my previous diploma in Classical Cello, creates the opportunity for you to receive the best quality for your training, by working in a fun, stimulating, and respectful environment.

If you feel ready to embrace this journey, don't hesitate to contact me!

It is beautiful to be able to play a musical instrument. However, when looking to learn the cello, one needs regular accompaniment. Either if you want to engage in a hobby or if you want to learn and develop your skills in a more serious way, I will adapt your lessons to your ambitions and desires towards your cello lessons. The duration of our lessons can be flexible according to the necessity or possibility of the student.

Other artistic situations can be offered depending on what you show through the lessons, as the participation in cello ensembles, preparation for competitions (for students who will take the cello further in their studies), preparation for other exams that the student may want to apply to out-side our lessons, as others which may be proposed by the student him-self.

There is also the opportunity to improve and practice your English, Portuguese, Spanish or Czech since these are the languages in which I can teach, according to the students preference.

The most important thing is that you love music so that we can make some together!!

Cello lessons for everyone

Cello lessons for everyone! From beginning to advanced (pre-conservatory level) cellists. Online and live lessons possible. If needed, I also help with understanding sheet music and music theory. For each student I offer a specific lesson format that is suitable for her/him. I can give lessons in classical music, but also in more modern music or improvisation.

About me: I'm Nil! I am 25, from Barcelona (Spain). I obtained my bachelor's degree in performance and music pedagogy at the Prince Claus Conservatoire, Groningen. Now I have graduated from the Master's in Classical Music at the Royal Conservatoire (The Hague). During my studies I also gained experience with professional orchestras (Residence Orkest and Noord Nederlands Orkest) and I played in semi-professional and amateur orchestras (as a soloist). During my master's degree I did a Master's in Research in NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming). I started teaching when I was 18 and then continued teaching. Lessons can be in English, Dutch, Spanish or Catalan.

If you have any questions or are interested in a trial lesson, please don't hesitate to contact me.

day and time by appointment.

I'm offering productive music lessons in a friendly environment.
I'll guide your development from any level. I treat every student as an individual, and I adapt my approach accordingly - whether making music is your hobby or you have rather serious plans with it.

Depending on what you aim for, I'll choose nice pieces/songs and interesting exercises. I always care about leaving my students with the necessary tools for practice on their own when I'm not around to guide them.
You'll learn a stable intonation, and develop your rhythmical sense, musical interpretation, good posture, and apparatus that works for you individually. Together we can go not only for classical but also pop, rock or film music. What you might also enjoy during the lesson is playing together in a duo with me - so you can experience making music with another person, which is super fun!

There is many fantastic advantages to learning music, such as the growth of your musical taste and artistic sensitivity, and as even science proves - enhancement of your brain capacity.
But learning the cello or piano - the instruments that everyone wants to play ♡ - will truly inspire you by its unique sound.

//Besides my main instrument lesson domain, I offer help with Music Theory, Ear Training, Solfege, and Music History//
We can have lessons either in my apartment in Zeeheldenwkartier/Den Haag or at your location within the central area of the Hague.

The cello is an instrument that embodies both tradition and moderity. In my class, we can explore its many faces and characters together, from baroque splendor to contemporary repertoire and crossover.
You will learn basic and advanced technique and improve your musicianship in a gentle and supported way.
Leaning should be relaxing and fun - lessons are always engaging and uplifting.
From beginner to advanced amateur, all levels and ages are welcome to try a lesson and join the studio.

Bonjour! Je m'appelle Elsa, je suis française, j'ai 24 ans et je suis actuellement en master de jazz au Conservatorium van Amsterdam après avoir obtenu un bachelor classique au Conservatoire Royal de La Haye.
Ca fait 19 ans que je joue du violoncelle. Au fil des années j'ai joué dans beaucoup de contextes différents: musique de chambre, groupes, solo et orchestre (notament NJO et Jong Metropole).
J'adore jouer de la musique classique mais aussi du jazz, funk ou pop. J'aime jouer avec d'autre personnes, créer de la musique ensemble, improviser... J'espère que c'est quelque chose que je peux aussi transmettre à mes élèves!
J'enseigne la musique depuis 6 ans à toute sorte de personnes: tout les âges, tout les niveaux, en anglais et français... Alors n'hésitez pas à vous lancer!
J'enseigne à La Haye, Amsterdam ou en ligne et je peux me déplacer à votre domicile!
Au plaisir de vous rencontrer!

Every student needs a teacher who gives personal attention and is flexible, which is why I always adapt to the student's individual needs and different speeds of learning. Everyone is capable of making music, we only need to develop our skills, and with the right tools the world of music opens up.

I am deeply convinced that music is something that we all need and find the most comforting in the trickiest situations. Music helps to express emotions and the cello is an instrument that is immensely similar to the human voice.
I hope that every student of mine will find their voice and reveal their feelings while playing cello.

Let’s meet in our first lesson and enjoy the world of music!

Hi !

I am Héloïse, a french cellist and singer who lives in The Netherlands since two years. I finished to study at HKU Utrecht Conservatorium in june and am now a professional musician and, among other a cello teacher at the Lindenberg Center in Nijmegen.

After teaching music theory for two years in a french conservatory, I realised how much teaching is very important for me and helps me to grow as a musician. I like to adapt to the student and try to find a solution in any pedagogical situation.
I can teach all cello and singing levels, and all ages. I can also give some music theory lessons.
The lessons can be at my place in The hague or online but also at the student place, in english or french.

Thank you!

This class aims to unlock children’s potential in cello playing by building a solid foundation in technique, music theory, and aural skills. Lessons combine essential elements like ear training, intonation sensitivity, and score reading, all adjusted to meet individual needs. By balancing cello playing, theoretical knowledge, and aural exercises, students gain the confidence and independence necessary to progress to higher levels. Through a comprehensive approach, these lessons empower young musicians to grow, creating a well-rounded path toward mastery and self-reliance in their musical journey.

Did you always want to try cello? I'm here to help you!
My lessons are designed according to your own needs, whether you are an amateur with knowledge or no knowledge at all.
Are you a teenager, who wishes to reach their full potential? I have knowledge on that!
My lessons are focused on:
Motivation
Your own needs
Personal relation with the instrument
Student autonomy with goal settings
Understanding of technique and repertoire.

For children, I focus on making the first steps into music playful and exciting. I use age-appropriate exercises, simple songs, and creative activities that spark their curiosity and keep them motivated. My aim is to nurture not only their technical growth, but also their natural sense of rhythm, imagination, and love for music.

For adults, I offer lessons that can be adapted to a wide range of goals. Some students come to me wanting to enjoy music as a relaxing hobby, and for them I design engaging and enjoyable lessons that build confidence step by step. Others are preparing for conservatory entrance exams, orchestra repertoire, performance opportunities, and with them I work on developing advanced technique, musical expression, and audition readiness. In every case, I create a supportive and structured environment that helps students stay motivated and progress steadily.

I offer personalized cello lessons to students of all ages and levels. Whether you're a beginner discovering the instrument or an advanced student looking to refine your technique, I tailor each lesson to your goals and pace. I visit students in their homes to provide comfortable and convenient lessons, focusing on solid technique, musical expression, and the joy of playing the cello.

String instruments are often associated with written classical music and, because of their technical complexity, many players rarely dare to move beyond the safety of the score. But improvisation is not a mysterious talent we are born with. It requires as much discipline as freedom and develops through a specific set of skills that can be understood, practiced, and ultimately transformed into performance.

After more than ten years of teaching improvisation to professional string players at conservatory level, I have developed an approach that rethinks fingerboard visualization and the relationship between the ear, the hand, and the instrument, making improvisation more accessible to string players from all backgrounds.

In these lessons, I will help you understand the logic of the fingerboard, transpose effortlessly in any key, and visualize the shapes of any chord, expanding its harmonic possibilities for accompaniment. I will also show you how to create effective grooves through chops and percussive techniques, while developing a melodic language that goes beyond scales and patterns. We will explore styles including Jazz, Blues, Fusion, Pop, Rock, Brazilian, and World Music. (According to the style, we can also work with loops and effects.)

This class is intended for musicians with a solid technical command of their instrument who want to develop their improvisation skills, whether they are taking their first steps in improvised music or already have previous experience.

The lessons will be tailored to each student. I will adapt to your learning rhythm while keeping you challenged at the same time. You will receive regular feedback, advice, guidance, and learning materials.
