My first teaching experience was when I moved to Brazil to collaborate with the social project called Neojiba in Salvador, Bahia. My mission was to give cello classes to children and young people, most of whom came from economically and socially vulnerable backgrounds. This experience taught me a lot about their culture and the importance and impact that music has on society. It was what opened a door and sparked my interest in pedagogy.

Currently, I live in Germany where my primary occupation is teaching. I am a cello teacher at various music schools in Cologne, and I have students of different ages and levels. Additionally, I am part of the Jekits system, where I collaborate with schools to teach cello and work with groups of children.

I also offer private cello lessons both in-person and online.

“To me, music has the power to unite, to move us, and to transport us to places we could never have imagined. As an independent artist and cello teacher, I have found in music a tool to connect with different cultures and people, and to explore all the styles and genres that this art can offer. From jazz to ancient music, contemporary pieces, and improvisation, I have discovered a world of possibilities that inspires me to keep learning and growing as an artist and educator. For me, music is more than just notes and rhythms; it is a form of expression that transcends borders and unites people in a universal language.”

• The cello has long been compared to the human voice. This is because its range is very similar to that of the voice, allowing the instrument to “sing.”
• The cello is a highly versatile instrument, not only used in classical music but also gaining popularity in pop, rock, film soundtracks, and many other styles. One of the great advantages of this instrument is the ability to interpret a wide variety of repertoire.
