Welcome to Ezgi’s Cello Club! *since 2007
Learning a musical instrument is a challenge. It requires the development of good discipline, self expression, communication, and collaboration skills through a fun experience.
Ezgi is specialized on modern and baroque cello but she also offers chamber music coaching, posture practice, meditation practice with instruments, martial arts,and energy work. She commits her time and energy into teaching and she enjoys doing it.
Besides holding a masters degree double majoring in cello performance and string pedagogy, Ezgi trained in Orff and Suzuki Methods. After years of teaching experience in various settings such as private lessons, orchestra sectionals, and group classes while teaching violin, viola, cello , bass, and piano working at schools and El Sistema Organizations, she likes to mix her teaching with different approaches from her past experiences including Yongmudo / Hapkido (Korean Martial Art) techniques which she ranks as a 1st Dan Black Belt.
Ezgi loves teaching because she thinks of it as leading others to express themselves through experience; to represent their individuality through music. In the words of Ezgi, "We are social creatures. It is very precious to create an environment where people think, learn, share, enjoy, and can be themselves at the same time."
Reviews
"All good! Ezgi is a true professional. I have worked with her on cello - a new instrument for me - and also worked with her to get help w/ orchestra and chamber music on my 'regular' instruments. I loved her analytical approach and her ability to find problems and address them without simply yanking my arm around or losing her temper. I am sure that she works well with her young students too, but I can highly recommend her to adults as well. She is a jewel. Thank you, Ezgi! Your patience and kindness is very much appreciated"!

“Aidan has been blessed with some of the BEST teachers! They inspire and challenge him, have fun with him (I hope), and help him reach his goals.”
Amy
“Ezgi has been my instructor for a year now. She understands my needs as a new adult learner. Our lessons together are engaging, and fun; She teaches me to break down challenging lessons in pieces and feel the instrument emotionally. I am having a wonderful time exploring the cello with her as my teacher."
Jennifer
"Ezgi's achievements in academics & performance give her all the credentials one could ask for in a music teacher. Yet on top of this, Ezgi is also an outstanding communicator, organized professional, and overall a wonderful, understanding & knowledgeable instructor that could take any student as far as they'd like to go. Those who get to study with Ezgi Yargici can consider themselves lucky knowing they are working with the best!"

"Hi Ezgi,
You have been a wonderful teacher! Every good teacher has something to offer, but we have found you to be particularly knowledgeable, perceptive, talented, and experienced as a musician, and Rebekah has benefited from that.
All the best to you!"

"As an adult senior who began cello at 70 years old I was fortunate in acquiring Ezgi as my cello instructor. After a year at my local music store (a non-cellist) I needed some expert correction to resolve some problems I was having and the necessary guidance to move forward.
Ezgi is a very competent professinal who is patiently providing the direction, guidance and challenge I need to progress with my cello. I initially chose Ezgi because of her extensive credentials and experience in both performing and teaching. Both of which have been exemplified during the five months I have had her as my instructor. I look forward to a continuing association with Ezgi as my instructor."
