About

Cello! My name is Rachel Harris and I’ve been teaching private cello lessons for 22 years. I love what I do, and love seeing my students learn, grow, and enjoy every aspect of playing the cello! I teach from 3 books, (note reading/theory, Suzuki/ ABC’s, and a cello duet method- Dotzauer) I also provide sheet music that I personally write for my little studio orchestra, and community orchestra for beginners- Advanced players.

    Miss Rachel is such a wonderful teacher! She’s funny, down to earth, and super helpful. In my journey of learning, she’s always been supportive and gives good constructive feedback. I recommend her to anyone who is looking for a great teacher; you will have a memorable and rewarding experience!

    Frequently asked questions

    I build a solid foundation of Bowing while each new student is learning how to read notes, and learn where each note is on their cello. 

    This helps focus on technique, and note reading. Improving sight reading skills, long term. 

    I also start each beginner with the beginning group to learn how to play with others right from the start. 

    I always make sure each student leaves feeling accomplished, and with a smile on their face. Music should always be challenging, and enjoyable. 

    I have been teaching for over 18 years, and have loved every minute of it! I am classically trained on the cello, and currently play with the West Jordan Symphony.

    When I was 14, preforming in Handels Messiah, a guest asked if I taught cello lessons. My private cello teacher quickly answered for me, saying: “Yes! She does!” 

    My teacher then took me under her wing for over a year. She taught me everything she knew about teaching to get results. I teach from the Paul Tortellier method. Very relaxed, and ergonomically correct. I teach ear training, and group music to help each student get a well rounded education. 

    I have worked with all ages, and personality types. Everyone is able to be successful, as long as the student is willing to put the work in. 

    My studio just presented a program for Cedarwood assisted living, in Sandy Utah. I always schedule a program at Cedarwood, so that my students can participate in a service project. It always leaves our group feeling accomplished and grateful for the talents and skills we have developed! Individually, and as a group. 

    Make sure you always look for a teacher who watches techniques very closely, that is often what I find slips through the cracks, with new students that come to me.
