Linda is an amazing teacher, I am a beginner adult and she has at all times been patient, answers my questions and has given me the best advice and tips. Linda really knows her stuff and I am really pleased I found her, i look forward to my lesson every week. 10/10 would recommend Thank you Linda!

Zak's feedback about Amelia (Beginner Violin tuition near Yeovil)

Absolutely brilliant! Very knowledgeable, very patient, great energy, very polite and professional but yet like I’m talking to a friend. Amelia is very welcoming and just has an incredible passion and talent which is why I’ve continued to book with her. I know I am actually getting what I need as a learner from her and I am benefiting from her lessons. Can recommend her to anyone wanting to learn. I’ve never even picked up a violin or any instrument for that matter and she has had no issue taking me on as one of her students and already in 2 lessons I’ve started to learn the first part of the song I chose. She wants her students to progress in every single lesson. She’s happy for you to learn at your own speed. Always happy to answer questions. A perfect teacher for any student

Fiona's feedback about Anna (Beginner Violin tuition near Stroud)

Fun, understanding, very encouraging, and teaches with clarity and direction. I’m a beginner & Anna is very engaging and a clear teacher . I am very pleased to have found her on First Tutors & would have no hesitation in recommending her.

Ian's feedback about Edmund (Beginner Violin tuition near Gillingham)

Ed is a super-friendly and patient violin teacher. Although I am coming to the violin as an adult from a background in piano and flute with the ability to read music, there is a lot I have already learnt from playing a string instrument in Ed's lessons. All my previous musical training has been face-to-face (in my youth!), and this is my first time taking music lessons online. This works reasonably well, as Ed is able to see my mistakes in technique quite well on camera. However, it can be sometimes difficult to see exactly what is happening on camera when Ed demonstrates a particular step/passage. Ed has been great at filling in the gaps in my knowledge and watching my playing carefully to offer very tailored advice. Each lesson is framed around the requirements of the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM) exams. Although I do not plan to take these exams, this helps to give me a sense of the standard to which I am playing on my violin journey. I have no hesitation in recommending Ed to others considering the violin.

Nicola's feedback about Emily (Beginner Violin tuition near Leeds)

Emily is a fantastic teacher. She explains things brilliantly and my daughter lis progressing brilliantly after only a few weeks from being a complete beginner. Highly recommend

Stephen's feedback about Natasha (Beginner Violin tuition near Peterborough)

I've been working with Natasha for around 2 months now, having weekly lessons in the violin at a beginner level. In that time I've gone from having never picked up an instrument or knowing a crochet from a minim to being able to not just pick up the violin but also play several scales and am actively preparing for the initial exam. On the theory side I have a gist of the essentials and am slowly becoming able to sight read basic pieces. I can recommend Natasha as a tutor if starting out on the journey to playing the violin.

Jane's feedback about Emily (Beginner Violin tuition near Great Missenden)

Emily is very friendly and encouraging.

Stuart's feedback about Robert (Beginner Violin tuition near Gosport)

As a mature student, starting the violin very late in life, I find Robert to be patient and encouraging.

Clifford's feedback about Monika (Beginner Violin tuition near Beckenham)

Excellent tutor. Focus on posture, bow hold and left hand from the beginning. Good with adults learners

Kathryn's feedback about Fiona (Beginner Violin tuition near Shepton Mallet)

Fiona is a very patient and thorough teacher making sure that good habits are in place before moving on to the next stage. Lessons are taken at your pace and are fun and enjoyable. I have no hesitation in recommending Fiona especially for a senior adult beginner such as myself with limited musical knowledge.
