Personal Description:

Hello, I'm Cesca! I have been teaching 1-2-1 cello lessons in York for the past 8 years. I pride myself in taking a fun and tailored approach to all lessons, ensuring my pupils aims and goals are achieved and that my pupils get the most out of their cello lessons as well as enjoying them as much as I do!

After graduating with a 2:1 in BA (hons) Music, I now share my time between teaching private 1-2-1 cello lessons and touring the country with the leading ELO tribute band (Jeff Lynne's Electric Light Orchestra), the ELO Experience.

Aside from music, I love travelling the world, and spending time outdoors with my fiancé and our cockapoo Indie.

Tutoring Experience:

I have taught one to one cello lessons in both Nottingham and then York for the past 8 years. I have experience in teaching all ages both 1-2-1 in person lessons, and when needs must, online lessons.

Tutoring Approach:

Are you looking to learn something new? To reignite an old hobby, or to inspire a love of music in your child? Then I can help! Whether you are wanting to play for fun, or to work through your grades. I will listen to your aims and goals and specifically tailor your lessons to help you achieve them.

I have a fun and positive approach to lessons and believe that positive encouragement achieves far greater results than critical feedback!

From Lizzie (5/5): Francesca is a great teacher and I’m enjoying my lessons hugely.
I am an adult beginner and Francesca explains everything clearly so that I can make steady progress.
Francesca is both fun and very professional.

From Mia (5/5): Cesca is an amazing teacher and is incredibly helpful and kind.

From Joy (5/5): My six year old granddaughter has had her first lesson today and has come away beaming with delight. She has been making music from the very start - playing duets by plucking open strings to accompany a melody. Francesca is clearly an excellent communicator, flexible and accommodating, and is responsive to and understanding of small children and their needs.

From Sara (5/5): Amazing lady!

From Najwa (5/5): I started learning cello with Francesca after years of wanting to play, but being too nervous to give it a go having never played an instrument. Francesca is so warm & friendly, and made me feel relaxed from the very first meeting. She has a very positive but structured teaching style, and I really look forward to my lesson each week. I feel very lucky to have found her as a teacher and can't recommend her enough!

From Alex (5/5): I really enjoy my lessons and learn theory at the same time which is refreshing (didn’t have this with my last tutor - and it always felt like something was missing). Now I’m learning different terms, and things that make sense as I learn. Francesca is patient, flexible and really encouraging. I’d really recommend Francesca as a tutor!

From Katie (5/5): I have been having lessons with Francesca for two years now. She is a very bubbly, enthusiastic and encouraging teacher and I know that my playing and confidence has improved greatly thanks to her. I am sure that Francesca is a great teacher for all students, whether you are just starting out or have picked up the cello again after years away from it like me. I cannot recommend Francesca highly enough. Katie

From Emma (5/5): Francesca has been amazing. So incredibly relaxing and understanding! I’m very grateful for her patience!

From Andrei (5/5):
