seeking Cello teacher for 6 year old
Looking for recommendation for Cello teacher for 6 year old. After one week at Crowden she's interested in lessons. (We like Crowden, just a bit far for us) . Ideally someone in Alameda/Oakland/San Leandro (or willing to come to our home) but most important is a good teacher. (Both musical quality and ability to connect with and motivate kids)

The Preparatory Music Program at Holy Names University has cello teachers for children. It's a fantastic Suzuki program. Contact director Katherine Baird at Baird [at] HNU.edu (Baird[at]HNU[dot]edu) or 510-436-1224.
You might look into the preparatory music program at Holy Names Univeristy in Oakland. Katherine Baird is the Director and is also a cello teacher.

Love Becky Rogot. Our child studied with her from age 6 to 18. Wish we could transport her to college to continue the lessons. I can't say enough good things about her. Cheerful, dedicated, enthusiastic, works so well with kids. Through Holy Names Preparatory Music Program: 510-436-1224.
If you want to go the 'hip' route, look up Nathan Blaz. He's a professional (Indie +) musician and was teaching some private lessons at my son's school (EBI) in the after-care program.
