I'm Zoë, a cellist + teacher in Gloucestershire. All ages and abilities! Friendly and experienced. Graduate of Royal Northern College of Music and private teacher for 25+ yrs.

My son Matthew loves having Zoe as his cello teacher. He looks forward to his lessons with her and really enjoys them. He has made really good progress in a short period of time. I highly recommend Zoe as a cello teacher.

Zoe is the best teacher! She manages to explain things in a way that makes sense. As an adult learner, she adapts her way of teaching to suit me rather than teaching me in the same way she teaches her younger students, which you don’t get from all music teachers. She’s a rare gem!

We feel incredibly lucky to have found Zoe, a wonderful cello teacher for our son. She has a rare combination of kindness, empathy, patience and quiet confidence that has helped him grow not only as a young musician but also in his self-belief.

She always creates a calm, encouraging atmosphere while gently inspiring him to aim higher and achieve his very best. Her ability to understand when to support, when to challenge, and how to keep lessons enjoyable has made all the difference.

This summer, our son achieved his Grade 1 Cello with Distinction, and we know that this would not have been possible without her dedication, expertise and genuine care. We are so grateful for everything she has done and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to any family looking for an exceptional cello teacher.
