"Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of studying with renowned pianists and cellists, and performing as a soloist, chamber musician, and orchestral player. I have also worked with students of all ages, and these experiences continue to shape my teaching: with empathy, high standards, and a focus on each student’s individual growth, goals, and unique learning needs."

A structured 5-lesson trial program designed to carefully assess each student's physical setup, posture, and foundational technique and establish an efficient and healthy playing setup from the very beginning—regardless of experience level.
Proper posture is essential in instrumental study–it directly influences tone production, technical development, musical expression, and long-term physical ease. Rather than allowing habits to form over time, I prioritize establishing a healthy, efficient, and natural posture early in the learning process, tailored to each student's unique body structure.
Through guided technical work and focused adjustments, students develop a balanced and sustainable playing foundation that supports confident, expressive performance.

Once a healthy posture and solid technical foundation are in place, each student receives a fully individualized learning plan based on their goals, strengths, and musical interests.
At this stage, students can explore repertoire aligned with their personal preferences—whether classical works, or exam preparation (such as RCM), or artistic exploration in different styles. Technical development and musical expression are integrated into repertoire choices to ensure continued growth and enjoyment.
This approach allows students to progress with clarity, direction, and artistic motivation.

Regular private instruction focuses on long-term artistic development, technical refinement, and expressive freedom.
With a secure physical foundation in place, students are able to expand their repertoire, deepen musical interpretation, and develop independence in their playing. Lessons are structured to support both disciplined progress and personal artistic goals, whether for performance, examinations, or lifelong musical engagement.
Students continue to grow in confidence, control, and musical expression through consistent, individualized guidance.
Learning & Progress
• How has your playing or confidence improved since working with Dr. Jenny?
I’m starting to feel more comfortable and braver playing in front of larger crowds, and I’m constantly improving!
Teaching Style
• How would you describe Dr. Jenny’s teaching style?
She is really nice and makes learning fun. She encourages me and gives me songs in pieces, like a puzzle, and when I put them together I can play the whole song. If I make a mistake, she helps me fix it right away. Sometimes we play Piano-Cello duets, which is my favorite.
• What do you appreciate most about her approach to teaching cello?
I like that Dr. Jenny does each song part by part, not throw the whole thing at me. She teaches step by step, so I don't feel lost.
Impact & Growth
• How have cello lessons helped you (or your child) grow — musically, personally, or academically?
I started getting better grades in music courses at school, and I can handle pressure and am calmer now.
Recommendation
• Would you recommend Dr. Jenny’s cello lessons to others? If so, why?
Yes totally! I would recommend her because when she is teaching, she is like a friend. She wants me to enjoy the music, not just play a million songs fast. She makes sure I'm really learning and having fun at the same time.

“I’ve been taking online cello lessons with Dr. Jenny since 2020, after starting with her in person. She’s incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and attentive—even through the screen! Online lessons fit perfectly with my busy schedule and save travel time, while still providing the same quality of instruction. Being able to record each session and replay my playing has been a huge help in improving technique. Jenny always ensures the setup works well and keeps lessons engaging and structured. I truly enjoy learning this way and would highly recommend online lessons with Dr. Jenny to anyone seeking flexibility and great teaching!"
