Information About David - Tower Hamlets teacher -

(1 review)

Personal Description:

Hi! My name is David and I am a Swedish Cellist based in London. Having grown up in a family of classical musicians, I developed a passion for the art form early on in life and began to play the cello at the age of six. I have pursued a career as a classical cellist which lead me to complete my Masters at Guildhall School of Music & Drama in London and win a position as a cellist in Southbank Sinfonia (**Web Address Removed**).

When I was growing up my mother was head of the music teacher education program in Royal Music College in Stockholm Sweden, so teaching has always been a part of my life. I began teaching the cello when I started my undergraduate degree in classical cello performance and have been teaching since. I recently worked as a deputy cello teacher in Sweden for two months at a highschool similar to the Menuihn school in the UK, and during my time at Soutbank Sinfonia I worked in education and outreach workshops led by Wigmore hall. I also performed in several side-by-sides with schools such as Cardinal Vaughan Memorial School.

Kind regards,
David

Tutoring Approach:

Being an inspiring teacher and have the ability to adapt ones teaching in technique, theory and musicality according to each students needs whilst setting goals catered to the students level are values I regard highly.
I teach people who want to play the cello as a hobby or for work and exams. I am based by Victoria Park in East London, however I travel to teach as well. Ensemble playing and performances in public is something I always encourage which you can see in my biography.
