I've been working with Pola for about a month now, and I am really enjoying it! Pola's knowledge, guidance, and patience have helped me to already learn so much, and I look forward to learning even more. I especially appreciate how she is conscious of multiple different aspects of my playing at once; form, intonation, tempo, etc. Our lessons are well-rounded and extremely helpful!

Pola is an excellent cello teacher, especially with and even for beginners. She is extremely patient, supportive, and compassionate, all the while challenging and setting goals for her students to aim and achieve. Pola is also always excited for our lessons, and her energy is unmatched. I would definitely recommend Pola to anyone who wishes to learn cello.
