Cello & Piano Lessons with Laura V.

Hi! I'm a passionate and friendly music teacher who loves helping children discover the joy of music. I hold a Music Performance degree from Hope College and am Suzuki-certified for Cello Books 1-3. With over a decade of experience teaching cello and piano to students as young as four, I specialize in creating a fun, supportive learning environment where kids can grow in confidence and creativity.

I've taught everything from private piano & cello lessons to full orchestras at the elementary through high school level, including at Timothy Christian Schools in Elmhurst. My teaching style blends structure with encouragement, drawing from methods like Suzuki, Little Mozarts, and Alfred to tailor lessons to each child’s needs and personality.

Whether it's their first time playing or they're ready for the next level, I'm here to make learning music a joyful and rewarding experience!
