Private Cello Lessons
With decades of teaching experience and having studied with some of the finest (USA) cello pedagogues of our time, I have a considerable amount to offer – accepting students aged 7 and up – anyone who has always wanted to learn to play the cello or is perhaps revisiting the cello after a break (however long). I am also happy to work with cellists or other musicians on how to play baroque music in a historically informed manner.
I am currently a cello instructor within the Edinburgh Council Schools (primary and high school) as well.
I can provide lessons live or via digital media – perhaps for those who are unable to physically attend – or during times of physical distancing.
Contact me to set-up a free trial lesson.
Teaching Testimonials:
“…Our experience with Claire was always positive and professional…We heartily endorse Claire as a teacher who can instil a love of classical music in her students, and who will enrich the musical experience for them beyond the technical skills of the instrument. [cello student’s mother].”
“… I have been very impressed both by the quality of Ms. Garabedian’s playing and teaching, and also by her enthusiasm…Ms Garabedian is a very warm person who is clearly a dedicated cellist and teacher and I recommend her wholeheartedly. [cello student’s mother].”
“What had the greatest impact on me – was your very holistic approach to teaching and music. Learning music is not some isolated set of skills that you learn, but it is part of the whole person…You were also very good at instilling confidence. As an adult trying to learn, having someone who fostered confidence and belief was very vital to me…
