Dr. Yeil Park

I sought out Dr. Yeil for his experience and knowledge for music. And throughout each lesson I am beyond impressed with his abilities. But that’s not all he is able to help me understand the importance of music in different perspectives. He also is able to understand and be creative on how to teach me. And what I mean by that is I am a slow learner and may need some extra help and or motivation. But at the end of the day I have to be my own motivation. Dr. Yeil helps me see that, and each lesson I learn something new which I really enjoy! Not only about the cello and or about other composers. But just a very well educated human!

Dr. Parks vast wisdom and knowledge on cello and orchestral cello repertoire is an invaluable asset in his teaching. Not only is he an amazing technical teacher, Dr. Parks encyclopedic knowledge of music is not only impressive but is very rare to see in a young cello instructor. It is inspiring to say the least! He also shows that he cares about you outside the studio and is very personable and friendly. I greatly enjoyed my lessons with Yeil when I was at ASU. I would recommend him to anyone, no matter what age or level you are in your cello-learning journey!

Dr. Park is not only an incredible cellist but the best cello teacher you could hope for. He guides you to improve technically and musically, asking questions along the way so that his students have their own realizations and each form their own musical identity. His Socratic approach meant that I always left my lessons feeling inspired and even more fascinated about music than before.

He is kind and patient. He teaches according to childrens eyes. His cello lessons are detailed, and not waste even one minute. He does not give up and teaches based on their possibilities. Above all, beyond teaching the cello, he listens to students and sympathizes with their lives. My kids are always happy with him!
