Cello teacher in London for 4 year old

Hello, I wonder if anyone has a recommendation for a cello teacher within easy reach of South-East London (East Dulwich) for a 4 year old? My daughter has had 1 year of Suzuki cello lessons with a teacher who is a 10-mile round trip away which is becoming a bit of a mission on public transport. It seems like there aren't any Suzuki cello teachers nearby but perhaps someone has some recommendations for a teacher who could deal with this age group. Thanks!

I would look on suzuki site - try typing 'suzuki teachers' in to google as there is a list of all of them there I think. That's how we found our violin teacher anyway! Is there a conservatoire near you? My dcs are on the young strings project in Birmingham, but I think there are others around the country.

Unfortunately no Suzuki teachers for cello in the area despite extensive searching on the British Suzuki sites.

We have some conservatoires within commuting distance although over an hour each way on public transport. We have a place to start at one in Central London in September 2013 which might be the earliest we can find someone suitable! :)

I don't have any feedback for you :) I just wanted to give you a virtual pat on the back. I mean, a 10 mile roundtrip on public transport for a music lesson. Awesome. (I know parents who can't be bothered to drive a few miles for their DCs)

Hi LorraineSE22,
One of my DDs (2.5years old) will be starting lessons next year with a Suzuki cello teacher in Mitcham. Would that be too far for you? Let me know and I can PM you the details.
