Cello and Music lessons for beginner, intermediate and advanced players (all ages).

My goal is to find, with the student, the joy and the feeling of profound concentration while playing an instrument.
The lessons are of course adapt to each student, but the common thread will always be to try to combine music and technique, leaving out boring mechanical exercises.
Extra information
We agree on the day and time for each week.

Miss music lessons for children:

In a class with miss music, you get to enter the world of music together with her best friend Mr. Cello Bello. Together you go on musical adventures singing, moving, and playing. Some of the adventures are:
Music mind games
There have been several studies made on how humans learn best and if I look back on my own learning development and experience with students over the year there is one way that has proven itself over and over again, having FUN!
Yes, good grades are often a great indicator of how interested you are in a subject because we learn more when we have fun. Memory also works after strong feelings, which means that when you experience strong happy feelings they become memories that stay with you through your life.
I always try to play in information and work proactive with my students, I want it to be easy and like to prepare them to succeed with what they do no matter their age. By learning step by step music opens up a world for everyone that likes to, yes, play.
Music mind games are a creative way of learning that Michiko Yurko the founder of the game created to learn music to children using the theoretical knowledge in a creative way with colors, memory games, dances, and every other imaginative way of making learning fun.
I have a certified education in music mind games and like to use it in my lessons together with new games I developed.

Examples of games that we like to play:
Hide and seek the notes ( a game where you can hide different things that sound, anything can be a musical instrument, but also to hide actual instrument is fun)
Dance and freeze: the game where you dance and have to freeze when the music stops
Bubbles, balls, and other requisite: Soap bubbles are fascination and a perfect way to play with music and play with the things we sing about.
Through human history, we have learned through singing songs and it is a great way of learning about things by singing about them and making different movements.

Listening and hearing music
It is important to get to know music and listen to it not only hearing it. I like to have a moment in every lesson where we listen to music. Studies have shown that listening to complex music as a toddler really helps with developing skills as cognitive abilities, language abilities, perfect pitch, and many more.

Through human history, we have learned through singing songs and it is a great way of learning about things by singing about them.

I like to work proactively towards that the children learn:
How to listen and imitate notes, rhythm, melodies
Learn note reading
Learn how to make music by themself, express themself through music
Move and listen to music
Recognize notes and accords
Learning how to learn, in a music lesson, you learn more than just the subject music you also get skills like learning how to learn, imitate, listen, concentrate, curiosity, creativity, and many more.
Learning music will give you skills that are useful in your entire life.
