Jordan Nelson Cello Lessons
About
I have played cello for eight years. During which I have played in several orchestras and a band that has brought my talents around the globe. I have a very different approach to teaching and practicing. I prefer to have the students play songs that they would enjoy instead of me assigning them a repertoire. This I have found, helps kindle the student's desire to learn and makes them want to stick with it.
I present my students with simple goals every week. These include small drills designed to gain agility in the left hand and coordination in the right hand. I then isolate one section of the student's chosen song and request that when they return said section is performance ready. I then repeat until the whole song is near perfect. I then challenge the student to memorize the piece.
