When I started learning the cello, I fell in love with the instrument because it seemed like a voice—my voice

TEACHING

Isaiah is a passionate instructor and brings his love of the cello and performance to students of all ages and backgrounds. Ensuring that each of his students receives a highly individualized learning experience, Isaiah spends a great deal of time creating unique plans of study for each pupil. He strives to make lessons engaging, fast-paced, and exciting. Isaiah has worked for several non-profit arts organizations, youth orchestras, and school systems teaching the cello, all the while maintaining a sizable private cello studio. He has taken advanced coursework in music pedagogy, teaching artistry, and Alexander Technique, incorporating modern techniques as well as practices from the rich history of cello tutelage into his teaching methods.

Isaiah is currently accepting students into his studio.  Please contact him if you are interested in setting up a complimentary trial lesson. More information about private lessons is available here.

Please note that while Isaiah is available for hire through several teaching services, hiring him directly is always most costeffective and allows him to better personalize your learning experience.

HOW LESSONS WORK

Signing up for private lessons is both an investment and a commitment. Isaiah works hard to make this investment as worthwhile, exciting, convenient, and affordable as possible. Learn how lessons work in greater detail.

Virtual Lessons

Isaiah has developed a comprehensive system for online teaching, ensuring that all of the nuance of in-person lessons are translated into the online realm. Using professional audio and video equipment, online lessons are an affordable way to receive an exceptional music education in the comfort of your home. Online lessons are appropriate for students of all skill levels, and are a convenient way to access quality music lessons for you or your child without breaking the bank or adding another trip to your busy week. Isaiah welcomes any questions you have about virtual lessons.
