About Sebastien
Hi! My name's Sebastien (or Seb if you prefer), I am a cellist and have been for the past 12 years. Through many hours of daily practice I have gained incredible experience in the instrument as given in my CV! If needed, I can provide you a more detailed resume if you email me at (concealed information) !
Given through my years of dense experience in the instrument and the teachings that I have received and learned from acclaimed teachers and relatives, I believe I am a great candidate for your cello teacher or for your friend or loved one!
Hope to hear from you soon!

I will use the teaching methodology used by my acclaimed teachers and parents where in my teaching will differ both for the individual's personal style and their skill level. For example, for a younger student with a new interest for the cello.
I'll begin lessons in an unorthodox manner taught to me by my acclaimed teachers. This is where the student does not begin playing notes on the instrument but I teach them the absolute foundational aspects of the cello such as bow hold, right posture, spike length, left hand strength, how to read music, how to read and interpret rhythm, phrasing and structure etc.
Through this process of strengthening their foundation, they will begin to learn pieces that demonstrate technical difficulties for the student to overcome. This furthers their foundation for the instrument where even if they choose to move onto a different instrument they can carry over their previous learnings and gain a head start over their peers.
For more intermediate cellists, depending on their ability, I will listen to how they play and more importantly watch how they play. I will teach according to their previously learned techniques and playing habits from previous teachers and strengthen and improve this technical skills.
When being a beginner and intermediate cellist, foundation is key to how they learn and perceive music in the future. Having an incredibly strong technical foundation and a strong perception of musical phrasing and style is completely beneficial towards their future in cello!

Sebastien is very intelligent. Throughout working with him, I find that he's very adaptable and compromising according to who he works with and always maintains a positive and encouraging attitude when being a part of a team.
I met Sebastien in early primary school and since then have watched him grow as both a person and musician. He works very hard to become the best he could possibly be and I am confident that he will do the same for his students.

Details
Often beginner and intermediate students start with 30-45 minute lessons with the gradual build up to 1-2 hour lessons. I have been recommended by the Sydney Conservatorium of Music that due to my higher level of experience and certification, I charge $45 per half hour; but due to the recommended hourly rate in my area, I have decided to go down to $35 per half hour! I will also be more than happy to have a 'free trial' lesson to allow you to gain confidence and trust in me as a teacher
