Perfect! Hector is extremely knowledgable, very patient and friendly. Highly recommended
Héctor is een goede docent. Hij heeft me in een aantal lessen heel geduldig de basis van het cellospelen geleerd. Ik moest helaas voortijdig stoppen met de lessen, maar dit komt zeker niet door Héctor. Ik zou hem aan iedereen aanraden!
Héctor es un gran profesional de la enseñanza y del violoncello, avalado por sus estudios y su experiencia. Aporta mucha energía y motivación como profesor. Sus ganas y esfuerzo se notan en cada clase y el progreso ha sido realmente notable! Recomendadísimo!
Hector is an amazing teacher. He explains everything and help not only with the basic things but all of the small important details. He is really friendly.Unfortunately I can’t continou now the lessons with him, but I hope one day I can learn with him again
Molto preparato e disponibile. Ho apprezzato la flessibilità per quanto riguarda gli orari delle lezioni settimanali. Approccio tutto sommato tradizionale all’insegnamento, i suggerimenti su come migliorare sono stati forniti in modo chiaro e preciso, risultando in un rapido miglioramento nel mio modo di sedere, tenere e muovere l’archetto, raggiungere le note con la mano sinistra e analizzare uno spartito in modo da migliorare la tecnica e l’orecchio acustico durante l’esecuzione. L’apprendimento è stato facilitato ulteriormente dall’atmosfera distesa e amichevole che si è creata a lezione. Raccomanderei Hector per chi vuole iniziare lo studio del violoncello, ma anche per chi vuole perfezionare aspetti tecnici già parzialmente acquisiti.
Héctor is a really attentive cello professor. He guides you with both techinical and musical (style, musicality, etc.) corrections. You can really feel that he has a lot of teaching and playing experience. He has patience and good resolutive methods for your dificulties.
Moreover, the lessons are nice and he complemets the information with knowledge about composers and music history. He transmits his enthusiasm for the cello and music world in general.
I'm glad of having him as a professor and I would totally recommend him :)
La clase es muy interesante y entretenida. El profesor es paciente y profesional conmigo.
Héctor es un profesor atento y muy dedicado. Nunca había tocado un instrumento de este tipo, pero desde el principio me fue guiando para empezar de una manera sencilla. También me ayudó a encontrar mi violonchelo, así como los accesorios necesarios. Las clases son muy amenas y el tiempo se pasa volando. Además, se implica y es muy accesible. Se nota que Héctor es un gran profesional que ama de verdad tocar el cello, y eso lo transmite en sus clases. Por todo ello no puedo más que recomendarle y darle las gracias por tenerme como alumna.
Es la segunda vez q me da clases. Me encanta su método. Es paciente y se adapta a mis necesidades. Es puntual y nunca tiene prisa por marcharse. Me aconseja y me transmite sus métodos para optimizar mis estudios. Es muy educado, correcto y tiene un trato especialmente afable y comprensivo. Es un enamorado de su instrumento y además es muy guapo!!! Gracias Hector por todo.
Hector es un gran profesor, que transmite su amor hacia la música y toca de manera extraordinaria, simplemente eso ya te hace avanzar y tener ganas de aprender.
Además se toma todo de una manera muy paciente esperando a que adquieras el conocimiento técnico y expresividad del instrumento deseada, con ejemplos prácticos e historia del instrumento, por lo que cosas complejas se pueden aprender de manera más sencilla.
Sus clases son muy amenas y sin duda te permiten disfrutar del violonchelo a la vez que aprendes.De verdad que simplemente oír como toca merece la pena, he oído un poco su suite de Casado y es una pasada.
Estoy muy contento por haberlo elegido como profesor.
Muy recomendable! Con él retomé la confianza e ilusión para hacer las pruebas al Grado Profesional...y lo he conseguido! Seguiré dando clases aún así con él, porque es un refuerzo excelente para afianzar conocimientos.
