Cello lessons with a professional teacher
Have you always wanted to learn to play an instrument of the violin family, but you think it will be too hard to learn? Then you will find what you are looking for in the cello! It is an instrument that will help you express yourself and it is not too hard to play, so you can get easily good at it. With your teacher that we are going to find for you, you will become a great cello player!
Why choosing to take cello lessons?
Cello is not the most well-known instrument, but it is really interesting to play and to discover. Playing cello will make you more creative and less stressed in general, as music is known to relax people. It is also easier than playing violin for example. Indeed, it is easier to start learning cello because you will begin to sound great sooner.

MusiProf is an online platform that establishes the connection between music teachers and highly-motivated students that are looking forward to learning to play an instrument. We are the ones that are looking for the teacher that will give private lessons for you. In order to achieve our mission, we need to know more about you, your needs, your objectives and your expectations. Here are some examples of what you can tell us:
- Your availability: you can choose to have classes whenever you want.

What you are going to learn during your private lessons
Cello lessons are about getting to know how to play the instrument of course, but also knowing tips about it. Your cello professor will teach you all you need to know about cello for you to play it well, for instance:
- The best way to hold the cello.
- The technique to create a vibrato.
- Playing with a French style, a German style or a Russian style.
- Using the bowing techniques.
- ... your teacher will give you so much other advice.
Online or face to face classes
You may think that it is impossible to take classes online, but it isn't! On MusiProf, we want you to have the choice to either take your classes online or face to face, as both options are really good for you to learn.
- Online classes: you can learn from home, no commuting, and you have the quality of teaching as in person. The only things you need are a computer with microphone and webcam, an account on Skype or Zoom and a good internet connection.
- In person classes: we will find a teacher that lives near you, so you can meet, and you can learn the traditional way.

Elisha R.
Speaks: English
Engage Music Music takes its admirers on a journey—a journey that will impact them now and throughout their lives. Elisha Rose embarked on this musical journey back in 2004 with his first ever music lesson. With violin and bow in hand, Elisha experienced first hand the joy of creating music. By 2006, he continued to create music now with a cello and bow in hand. By 2011, Elisha graduated with an Associates of Arts and Science in Music, and by the time 2015 rolled by, he received a Bachelor’s degree in Music Cello Proficiency. This only inspired him to pursue his Masters in Music Education which he attained in 2018. In tandem with his musical studies, Elisha took up learning the viola and bass and found opportunities to teach the violin, viola, cello, and bass. Encourage Listeners Since music is a gift, it is meant to be received and given. Musical admirers receive the gift of music as they practice and give the gift of music to others as they perform. Music only has one price tag--pay it forward. Having been gifted with the gift of music, Elisha works on paying it forward to as many listeners and admirers as he is able. Empower Admirers Back in 2018, Elisha founded Rose Music Studio to empower musical admirers to begin their own musical journey. Elisha provides both studio lessons and home lessons to make it convenient for his students to learn their choice stringed instrument. His purpose is to assist his students as they embark on their own musical journey, encourage them to receive the gift of music, and to share it with others. His dream is for these empowered musical admirers to go and empower other musical admirers.

Shanghai Conservatory of Music
Music Performance Bachelor Degree
Sep 2017 - Jun 2021
At the Shanghai Conservatory of Music, I received a rigorous classical training under Professor Xie Guangyu, which laid a strong technical and musical foundation for my development as a cellist. My studies emphasized disciplined practice, precise technique, and a deep understanding of phrasing and musical structure. I also studied the Alexander Technique, which gave me a lasting awareness of posture, body use, and healthy playing habits—an approach I now pass on to my students. During my time there, I had opportunities to perform in major productions and collaborate with leading musicians, which broadened my artistic perspective and professional experience. This education taught me the value of both structure and expression, and as a teacher, I strive to combine technical clarity with musical freedom. I help my students build a solid foundation while encouraging them to develop their own voice and creativity.
