Sarah Huesman

Hi there! My name is Sarah Huesman and I am a professional cellist living in Miami, FL. I was born and raised in North Carolina and would describe myself has friendly, personable, easy-going, and patient. In high school I attended the University of North Carolina School of the Arts and have been seriously pursuing music ever since! I received my Bachelor of Music from the University of Miami (Florida not Ohio), Master in Music from the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music, and recently completed my Artist Diploma from the University of Miami. I am currently the cello teacher for the University of Miami Frost School of Music Preparatory Program and teach a few adult students privately on the side. I love meeting new people and especially love connecting through music. I believe everyone has the capacity to learn an instrument; it just takes practice, a good teacher, and time! 

My teaching experience cultivated in Miami, FL when I began teaching at the Community Arts Program in 2016. I taught young cellists for 3 years until I moved to Cincinnati, OH. During my 3 year employment with the Community Arts Program in Miami I also volunteered at the Mays Conservatory, where I taught cellists in the school orchestra program. In 2018 I moved to Cincinnati to pursue my Master in Music with well-known cellist and teacher Alan Rafferty. During this time I began teaching privately for Cincinnati Strings. When the pandemic hit in early 2020, all of my students in Cincinnati transitioned to Zoom lessons and I have been teaching them that way ever since. I teach students of all ages, as little as 4 and young as 70, and know how to cater to all learning styles. I am currently undergoing Suzuki training, and will be officially certified by September 1st, 2021.
