Our team carefully selects each educator, and we're confident you'll find amazing value at whichever level feels right for you.

Frequently Asked Questions About Online Cello Lessons

Frequently Asked Questions

Use our teacher search function with your postal code. Our system organizes teachers by proximity, showing the best options for in-home and studio lessons first.

Absolutely! After registration, we release your chosen teacher's contact details. They'll call within 72 business hours to discuss their teaching style and answer your questions. If you decide not to proceed, no charges are made.

Our tiered system helps you find the perfect match. Associates are ideal for beginners, Principals are experienced educators perfect for exam preparation, and Elite instructors are our most distinguished professionals for advanced students.

We specialize in private, one-on-one instruction with personalized lesson plans. While teachers may occasionally combine absolute beginners from the same family for initial basics, students transition to individual instruction quickly.

All ages! Our youngest students typically start around age 4, and we welcome adult learners and seniors. It's never too late to start your musical journey.

Lesson & Scheduling Policies

We recommend weekly lessons for steady progress. Most young children start with 30-minute lessons, while teens and adults benefit from 45–60 minute sessions.

Any lesson can be cancelled or rescheduled without charge with 24 hours' notice. Less than 24 hours' notice makes the lesson billable.

Lessons cancelled due to illness with less than 24 hours' notice remain billable, but teachers often offer make-up lessons out of goodwill. Maximum two make-ups per 60-day period.

We require two lessons' notice to terminate—typically two weeks for weekly students. This allows for a structured conclusion to the student-teacher relationship.

You may schedule longer absences for vacations or other commitments. We simply require the standard 24 hours' notice for any lesson you will be missing.
