Im ersten Unterricht machen wir viel mit Körperhaltung- wie man mit dem Cello sitzt sowie ganz viel mit Bogengriff. Im zweiten oder dritten Stunde legen wir zum ersten mal der Bogen auf die Saiten und ersten Ton machen. Nach 10 Wochen können Sie Tonleiter und Ihre erste einfache Stück spielen

In the first few lessons we will focus on posture- how to sit with the cello, as well as how to hold the bow (it's harder than people think). After 2 or 3 lessons, you will be ready to put the bow on the string and make your first sounds. After 10 weeks you can play a scale and some simple pieces.

One could say my approach is a mix of methods. I am a former student of the great pedagogue Irene Sharp, and I have also completed 10 courses in Suzuki pedagogy. I rarely stick with just one method, rather I mix them and add a few things of my own. I accept students of all ages from 4 up and all levels. However, I am only willing to teach adults online. For Young children, I lean more toward the Suzuki method, which means a) a parent must be at lessons, and b) there will be required listening

Russian Courses in Quebec >

Russian Language

Teacher: Elena Albina (Quebec)

(Teacher originally from Kazan, Russia)

My teaching methods are inspired by four classical approaches which vary from students' needs and interests: traditional (e.g.translation), direct (e.g. dialogues questions-answers), structural (e.g. grammar exercises) and communicative (e.g. production of documents by students and teacher).

As a social constructivist, I am deeply convinced that learning is an active process, where the role of the teacher is not simply to transfer knowledge but to provide students with all possible tools to encourage them for creative self-work and further independent discovery.
